The black wheels aren't my taste, but you gotta get those sills painted OB -- stat! It would do wonders for your look.

^+1, i never really liked the murdered out look, needs some contrast in my opinion. But you can make those work with a nice drop and getting the rest of the car painted. IMO

^Or you can go NISMO!!! Yup, X10000 on the sills (at least armor all them or something, lol). I like the powdered wheels, a subtle drop will definitely set it off.
Good job!

Ok, let me start by saying, Im a father of 3 so one thing at a time is all I can handle. Wheels are done, next will be painting the trim, then possibly a gloss black grill. As far as lowering it. Im old, and Id like to keep what LITTLE suspension the car has to offer Ive thought about lowering it, as I have a friend who is offering me his 350 springs, but Id hate to drive around the ****ty streets of houston with a low, stiff riding car. Who knows, maybe I will.

I love the forum here and proud to be a g35 owner!

^350z oem springs won't feel stiff and it's only a half an inch drop. It wont really affect you as far as daily driving
