thanks again Paul yes the 3rd vent will rounded out instead of being sharp edges and it will be functional.

Been looking at brake ducting and how it can be incorporated to the side vents.
All vents will functional.

Middle vent for the FMIC
both front side vents are where my intakes are for the APS TT
Side vents will be for brake ducting

Good plans! You'd need to incorporate the ducting into the wheel well somehow.

I'd love to see it in person when it's done.

There are some threads on my350z under the autocross/road course forum
I have been researching.

I will let you know. I know Stillen made one for our cars but I don't see it available on their site anymore.

the one that IGT made is a bit reminiscent of a porshe front.
nonetheless, can't wait to see it done.
good luck to you, glex.

Car was dropped off on Saturday @ the body shop.
All parts have been ordered including Paint and supplies.

Rear bumper and paint is at the body shop including the car.
Some parts will be reaching my bodyshop on Dec 31st.
Fender was promised to me to be available by Jan 5th.
Wheels have been ordered 6-8 weeks to make so we don't
know how far we actually want to go cause of fitments issues.
We will probably be working mainly on the front bumper front inlet
design in the meantime and fixing any dings where body modification will
not take effect. While we have the glass off I think I might change my tint to a 30% black tint instead of the 30% reflective tint I have now.

The only other thing we are waiting on is a possible Tire sponsorship.
345/25/20 Nitto Invo
275/30/20 Nitto Invo

If I'm missing anything or should do while its there let me know.
Oh yeah nameless when can I place my order for my T-shirts with that
logo in the front and your 4 car design in the rear.

Thanks for the offer but no CF will be exposed so trying to keep cost down with unneeded things.I'm trying to convince VIS to make me that hood in FG only since I'm planning on modifying it and that is going no where so the hood is a big question mark. The plans are for now is to leave the stock hood as is. The problem with exposed CF is that over time you have to sand it down and reclear cause the clear layer turns yellow, trying to avoid since that did happen to me when I had a TS hood. Most CF pieces available for the G35 are FG with a layer of CF and then clear coated.

I like the aluminum brush interior that comes from factory in spring I might be looking to get a DD kit and replacing my A-Pillar gauges with a HKS Camp 2 and having the gauge output from the HKS Camp 2 to a 7" LCD mounted on the DD kit. As far as seats I'm probably looking to put inserts in the middle of the seats(perforated piece on seats and doors and possibly A-Pillars), still undecided on the material but it will def be a dark gray material.

On a unrelated note:
Just finished wrapping all the Christmas Gifts for the wife and 3 kids.
Now I can finally relax.

damn gio sounds crazy..hit me up when its done

i also got another idea that you could try chopping. i think it would look pretty good if you incorporated the grill into the bumper like the kenstyle kit. maybe nameless could give it a chop. i have no idea what it would look like...i just have it in my head
