Is there a certian paint that one should use for body kits

I currently have a body kit on my 2004 G35X and noticed almost immediately that the paint was cracking. I'm planning on getting a new duraflex kit and want to know if there is a particular type of paint that I should use to pevent this?

I need brake pads and rotors. Looking at Duralast from autozone or any of the brands from the main auto chain stores.

That stuff recommended or can I get anything better for less/marginally more? Just want to make sure I am putting half *** decent stuff on my car.

Thanks!

Dude, if you haven't watched every top-gear, you could have told me when you were down here... I would have brought you a stack of DVD-Rs

did u guys watch american top gear just now on the history channel? It was surprisingly not horrible..lol

i dont get why that link wont work...lol

back to the brakes, I am running some sort of advance auto (05+) rotors in the front and oem rotors in the rear with ebc greens all around..pretty decent, but the pedal was vibrating a bit when I first installed them, idk if its bad rotors or what, but it seems better now...idk. Love EBC pads though.

I watched it. It was kinda gay lol.

I'll definitely keep an eye on those EBC brakes.

^It's a Lexus... furthermore, it's not even a 350, it's just a 2nd rate pretender.

If you want a car for old-people, just buy a Buick.

(Talked out of it yet?)

^Ok then, buy a Cadillac if you want a piece of crap with a 6MT.... oh or better yet... a Sentra! They probably have about as much torque as the IS250


As for the RSX guys, you should post either your burnout pic, or video a donut and tell them you want to see a Buick do THAT
