1.5 Years Update

A friend of mine recently took a couple pictures of my G for a G/Z calendar that he has made http://www.thephotomotive.com/zgcalendar.php. I can't believe that so much has changed from the last professional photo shoot which was 1.5 years ago.

The G is now dropped on BC Racing coilovers, 5mm spacers were added to the front, all the lights are now replaced by LEDs, a front camber kit was installed, the headlights are now blacked out, the windows are tinted 35% all around, Racing Break rotors were installed and soon, Hotchkis sway bars will be installed

Now:





1.5 Years Ago:

Man yeah the blacked out lights gave you a complete different look! looks much much better! Especially one white. I did mine as well, but I got blueslate so it doesn't stand out as much as yours (white).

Car looks great with GTS Volks bro! I got those here as well, but in gunmetal color. Was looking for BC coilovers as well.
So how do you like your BCs overall in ride quality?

thanks for the props guys as i do really appreciate it. i think out of all my cosmetic mods, i would have to agree with all of you in saying that the blacked out headlights made the most impact on the car. too bad the blacked out headlights didnt come as an option until the 2010 model b/c it would have saved my buddy a lot of time and effort to crack those bad boys open.

the guy who took the pictures of my car is absolutely top notch. he really knows how to work the camera and process the photos after he is done with them. you can check the rest of his stuff here: flickr.com/bradsillars

before the BC's, i was rocking the Eibach RWD prokit springs. i'd have to say the difference b/w Eibachs w/ stock shocks is very noticeable compared to the BC's. my biggest complaint with the prokit was that i felt nearly every single damn bump no matter how big it was and the ride was quite rough.

since the BC's were installed, i no longer feel every bump on the road (i have the dampening set in the middle). plus, the body roll is considerably less than the springs. as a result of all of this, i am able to take corners more aggressively. so if you got some coin to spend, i'd recommend getting these for your G.

yeah I did lots of research for the coilovers and without spending $$$$ BCs are just as nice (at least what Im looking for) as many other expensive coilovers. If im getting the coilovers it's gonna be BCs. You aslo just convinced me even more
