The half shaft and CV joint issues you are speaking of are something that needs to be addressed when going to extremes in either lowering or raising vehicles,........not on a simple cosmetic lowering.

I'm not implying that the above mod is bad, just relaying some of my experiences.
I modded just about every car I bought. Many to the point that driveability was compromised. I usually overpowered the car and was left with handling not up to par with the power.
The only car I didn't mod was my Z06. No need for mods and it was the most balanced car in power and handling.
I doubt I will do anything to the G35. I like it fine in stock form.
