Progress on the G.

Just got my G back from the shop with a few goodies added:

Eibach Pro-Kit Springs
Tokico D-Spec shocks
Kinetix front camber kit
SPC rear camber/toe kit
Project KICS wheel spacers and hubcentric rings (15mm front, 20mm rear)
INGS+1 front, sides, rear
Gialla Corsa Grille

To answer a few question that I'm sure will be asked:

1) The INGS+1 kit fit perfectly but needed A TON of prep so that the paint would adhere properly.

2) Grille fit well too but I expected better quality...oh well I pretty much had the shop repaint the mesh since it would have been prone to chipping.

All comments and suggestions welcome:

Rims will be next. One step at a time though.

Thanks

No idea on rims yet, which is why I am going to powdercoat them for now. Everything I like that is out right now (i.e. Volk, Work, PIAA, etc.) everyone seems to have. So my quest for the right rims will continue for now.

Just a little over an inch all around. Exactly the height I wanted.

Although I may swap the front springs out to a set of linear (H-Tech's I think are..) just to balance things properly.

Nice catch! I was wondering the same thing.
Anyway, final product looks very nice.

I love the sport rims. (sedan or coupe)
Did you say you're going to powdercoat them? That should be interesting...
