Yea until you see the seed bumps at my school! They are really bad! Look like telephone poles laying on the ground!

I just installed a extra tall air diverter on the front of the underbody tray and I've been hitting and scraping everything. I know the feeling.

Be 1 with the ricer roll over lol.

whats this "air diverter" you installed?

The G coupe has two front lips. One is a cosmetic lip that installs over the bumper and the other is a vertical lip that installs below the bumper and attaches to the underbody plastic.

My research shows that they are used for two things:

1) Diverting air around the wheels and creating less turbulence/lift below the car.

2) On older American cars, they were slanted and used to funnel air into the engine area to cool it.

I originally had both pieces on my car, but the previous owner must have driven like an idiot everywhere, because the lower one was in pieces. I was just going to buy another one until I was told that the replacement (mind you this is a pieces of molded plastic) was over $300 retail. My price was still over $200.

As such, I made one. Still trying to measure if there is any high speed stability or fuel economy benefits, but I just put it on last week.

Tampa I used to have 04 G Sedan 6MT. I had the stock Coupe 19's (245 all around) and never had any rubbing.

I also had the 2005 350z shocks and springs... and this is the best thing i ever did to the car. The car looked so much better with the 1" drop, and it just felt 100x better. The car should have came originally with this setup!

I have Pics of this setup if you want to see. e-mail me

Your insight here has me stoked. I am on M45 245 40 19s all around--planning this suspension upgrade this week. Did you have to roll your fenders?

I am thinking a heat-gun-wooden-baseball-bat-fender-roll (whilst exercising patience--of course) may be necessary.

Done. On 350Z revised shocks & springs ('05-'06) on my 2003.5 G35 6MT sedan. M45 Sport 19s on 245/40/19. No fender roll necessary. I cannot speak highly enough of this application. My G now feels remarkably like my former 2007 328i 6MT (If only I wasn't excessively sheering off/stripping lugs & wheel studs -- LESSON: Do not buy cheap spline drive nuts in blister packs -- drama every time lugs need to come off/go on).
