So I got the OEM front lip, a new bumper, new wheels, and myron & davis headrest DVDs. No front plate and took the pin stripping off. Let me know what you guys think

The wheels are Donz Genevese.. 20x8.5 (+35), 20x10 (+42). Color matched to the Infiniti White.

She is clean and gorgeous. I worry about the lack of tire sidewall though.

Super clean!!!

ONE of the best!. You have some monster lips going on. Finish out the Aero kit and that will complete it. Where did you get the headrest or those OEM.

I worry about that too.. The rear tires are 255.. Once they go bald, 6 months or so, then I will get 275. There was no sense in buying new tires when I did not have too..

The tanabe springs seems like to drop a bit more than eibachs. Any clearance issues? How's the ride?

Very nice! I would say do it, I plan on doing my calipers as well. I have black and will be doing red calipers. That would be good contrast to the white too.

I like the lip only (that's what I've got too).

Great job!

no clearance issues.. I have rubbed a couple of times if I hit a dip or big bump going to fast...

Ride is good.. Its not a stock ride, but its not terrible either. I say it is a 7.5 out of 10. 10 being stock....

I almost went for the color matched headlights when I did my Halos. I chose blacked out instead. But man, would I love to see the color matched result!!! Let us know what you decide

I'd leave the calipers alone. I think painted calipers, particularly bright red or yellow or whatever, will cheapen the look of this classy ride. IMHO, YMMV, etc.

Car looks great...really like the look of it. Was thinking about an aero kit myself...anyone have any idea on pricing --- dealer quoted me like $1,800 installed and color matched - seems way high to me.

When you say you changed out the bumper as well - which one? both look stock. I had someone ding me in the parking lot last week and I'll need to change out my rear bumper and was wondering what a ballpark would be.

Thanks

what does YMMV mean.. I kinda agree with you.. Although with these wheels, colored calipers would loook good.. But them not being "big brakes" and colored, may cheapen the look..

Is it just me or does the front lip look good by itself without adding the rest of the aero kit? I think the side skirts and rear lip are a little too much, makes it look to thick and bulky IMO. Anyone else think the same?

Ouch!!!!! I bit my lip looking at those pics!!! I think leave the calipers alone, don't do the aero kit, I like the front lip by itself. Great Choice!!!!

Pretty much leave everything the way it is. Its perfect!!! Except the lights, install the 6k HID for Low Beams and Fogs. Nothing else left to do after that!!!

Any info you can provide about the bumper and front lip, Cost? Did they come painted? Did you install yourself? Would be appreciated, I am looking to replace the rear bumper and after looking at your set up, I want to do the front lip as well. Let us know. Thanks!
