Quote: Haha! Pics now!

Ive seen some pull it off nicely and DG usually compliments black so im sure its nice!
I haven't done it yet. I'm waiting to pick up another set of tails, just in case I don't like it.

This isn't a priority for me right now though, since I still need to re-do my a-pillars and vanity mirror bases in a new wrap for my black headliner.

looks great. I would have kept the larger spacers and run more camber. Great work!

Car's looking great! What a turn-around from your original modded setup

I agree with the ones talking about the tint... but at the same time see your point about the red car - red taillights blending too much. Maybe go with a diff tint, possibly a light all around, as opposed to gtr style. I think it would make it classier

Who knows, maybe the pics don't do justice though

Ohhhh! Would love to see how it will go then!

Oh ok! So you are currently modifying interior pieces? Which A Pilar? the one holding the side mirrors?

Thanks! Might just do that man! Just need to get some some camber kits and get it installed! I was thinking of going SPL front and back but kinda expensive so I might just go Kinetix in front and maybe Eibach at the back! Need to read more on the different effects of the bushings and the adjustability of each Camber! Might be able to go back to 15mm in front then maybe I can put the 10mm at the back and just run 255/40/19

Hmmmm you might have a point there! Maybe I can toy with it on photoshop or something to get an idea but right now I still like it despite the lousy side profile at the back!

I was actually wondering how bad the camber wear is with the new springs? It looks really low and I'm guessing you probably are around -2.5 camber in the front.

Quote: Ill have to pass on that man! I'd look like ever LR G35 out there and the GF says it kinda makes me look like a Scion TC! Hehehe!
Car looks good, but I doubt you will look like very LR G35 for having black roof, since the majority of LR G35 have OEM paint roof. I would guess that over 95% of LR G35 on the street have OEM paint roof and less than 5% are painted black.

Also your G will not look like a scion TC, just because of painted roof, there are so many other cars that come with stock with black roof. It would take more than black roof to make our cars look like a scion TC. Your car looks good either way.

I was thinking of going SPL or Eibachs with the improved brass in their bushings
