Now i plan on changing the marker lights and some new wheels and ill just see what happens after that. So anyway here is pics of the only daytona blue sedan that i know of and i am proud to say its mine

my buddy has a coupe we "cut" springs on 05 g35 it lowered it a good bit and the ride is still very doable.

There were heated off the car I took my time doing this the right way still rides the same as before and yes i plan on getting some 06 z struts for it as soon as these say goodbye alot of heat and pressure and you can shrink a spring down instead of cutting coils off

^^ seen plenty off people doing this. basically all you're doing is softening the springs. better than cutting it. i think people watch too much "Pimp My Ride" ^________^

+1 to the black roof and tinted tails, also paint your headlight bezels, and grill. Should of blacked out the window trim and bodycolor the door handles, but the color looks awesome
