Appreciate it Warner. once again thanks for the end caps. And ya the wheels were bolt on with no spacers, and to be honest im actually surprised and very very happy that i havent had any rubbing issues yet. especially with the way i drive. BTW wheels were 1800 installed.

I am a fan of the ED side skirts also, love the look! I was thinking of one of their more plain front ends as I am just looking for more of a smooth front. Very nice!

Also, way to not go overboard with a new bumper! The stock rear bumper is one of the best looks and to leave that frame around the dual exhaust is a must in my mind. Saves money too

Although...I was in LOVE with the blue tinted rears until I realized it was just a color fad that you did with the background...grrrr ....haha

My .02...I think it comes just primed...meaning it wouldn't withstand the elements...but...I will sit back and wait for the answer.

if i was to order these wheels the guy said...

he can get 19x8.5 all the way around with tires at 235/35/19

when i mentioned to him your specs... he said he would look into it as the tsw vendor may have been looking at the stock max specs

what do u think about 20x8.5 245/_?_ /20

MIKE for 20s. i'd say go with 245/(30)/20 tires. but i perfer 19s on the coupe. and i'd much rather go with 19x9.5 with a decent lip with an offset of 35 and tires of (35) series. but good luck with the wheels

Silver/black theme.... check3.5............................ checknice side rockers....... checkStillen front............... checklowering springs....... checkspoiler...................... ehhh

sorry bout that last one, I'm just not a fan of any of the A/C spoilers except the Stillen one, and ai espcially wish they had never come out with the G35 spoiler... but ... I still like your car...

what's going on with the sounds? Nothing sets the coupe off like having a good sound system, you don't need to go crazy like me or Applebonker, but you spend your time inside your car doing what? Listening to music... it may as well sound good while it looks good! Way to go with the car!

Ive seen coupes with spoilers on them that I like, but I always think of how much better they would look without them.

+1 on Stillen being the only spoiler I would even consider( Ive thought about it lately because Im running out of new ideas)

Looks hot, man. I was steering clear of the stillen fascia (aiming for the lip), but you're starting to convince me otherwise.

When it stops raining this weekend I'll get some better pics. NO RUBBING at all. Was out driving for about an hour or so and everything is fine.

Things I have noticed:

- The weight: Seems about the same, maybe a little bit more heavy. After 20 mins of driving you get used it it and it's fine.

- It's f***ing awesome.

Crappy pic: (With Eibach Pro Kit)...
