Just a small update. I changed the front wheel bearing couple weeks ago. =) bought it off ebay for $70 with shipping. It wasn't that hard to press out like I was expecting. While there, I changed the front pads and rotors as the brake dust is pissing me off.

I bought some front lip off ebay as well but this one didn't go smoothly. The ad says it will fit G35 sedan 2005-2006. And it didn't fit well. there's a good 2-3" gap on both sides. My buddy and I tried to use heat gun and bend it a little but there's still some gap. I was adviced to use 3M double sided tape to actually make it work but I'm not 100% commited yet as I want to remove it in a month anyways before winter. So I'll just wait for next year I guess. I will still hunt for oem ones as I like the look of that more.

For ***** and giggles we tried it to my buddy's Honda Fit, and surely enough it actaully fits snug. Bastard.

That's about it for updates. I know I said I won't spend anymore but I can't resist lol

I'll have someone install a 2 way remote starter next week as well as I'm prepping her for canada winter lol I am still debating to buy the aluminum engine cover as I don't plan on putting my stock G35x springs anymore and just run it on this height. Thoughts?

anyways, just random photos of her:

So someone wanted my Rotas for these Works...... Straight trade.... Just need spacers now and more low. But that can wait until next year as I'm installing my winter tires soon anyways.

Where did u read that the Megan Exhaust reduces low end torque? I can't seem to find any reviews anywhere. Also, How does it sound? Does it drone a lot on the highway. Looking for an agressive sounding exhaust without too much drone.
