Oh man!! That is friggin expensive!! But all for the G :P As of now, i don't know what route I want to go first. The aesthetics or performance.....I guess a little bit at a time. Right now Im trying to decide on lowing it, or buying bigger wheels....but if I decide to lower it...coil overs or lowering springs? If I go for the bigger wheels, I like what I have seen others do on this forum. Put the 370Z NISMO Rays on the G

I've thought about that too. Especially the tail lights. However SDPD and CHP are very ****...That or have something against me. I tinted my windows and got a fix it ticket already...Lucky for me the cop didn't show to court so the case was dropped ;-) But i know its "illegal" in california to black out the headlights and tail lights. Dumb laws...there should be a way to amend them.

It's not really dumb. It's safety. Blacking out your taillights ect is dangerous to other drivers and yourself

You can still see the red light when the brake is pressed. Some people just want an excuse for their bad driving and not up holding the 2 second distance you need to have when driving behind another vehicle.

Yes but not as bright as it would come stock. If you ever got rear ended and someone got seriously hurt when you had tinted tails..you would be in big big trouble.

I use to think tinted tails were cool..but that was until i almost had 2 people run into the back of me 3 years ago..it's not worth it

Salvador, I'll look at them. Thanx for all your help. Anton, I got rear ended already with STOCK tails, so regardless of the color, I still think for the most part people on the road can't drive :-P

I was thinking of doing this update, but than my G has Adaptive Headlights so be pointless since the 2010/11 conversion doesn't have them , looking good though .
