I cleaned it after work on Friday and was in my garage wiping down the leather at like 9pm (after making walmart run due to being out of leather wipes). So when I was done beer was the only thing on my mind. If I could have just made it up earlier someone with a nice camera could have gotten it at Cars and Coffee.

Thanks. If I can just get my alignment set properly I'm good to go. Toe and camber are out. Local tire shop F'd me by installing the Eibach rear hardware but did not enlarge the holes as required and when brought to their attention they claim they won't do it due to liability. Would have been nice to know in January when they installed it that they were not able to get my camber in spec. They did balance and rotate my tires....but now my steering wheel is crooked and they claim they didn't touch the front alignment and that it's a tire issue (tires I bought from them)....guess what? I must have the same tire issue with the new rims too because the steering wheel is still crooked.

This whole suspension ordeal has been quite tiresome.

The suspension issue is not the tires fault.

Sedan after a much needed bath and the addition of G37 sport 19" wheels. The rear wheels were pretty flush but I used 15mm spacers in the front. It could use a bit of a drop.

Nope, 5AT. I'm actually OK with it. I've driven quite a few 7AT's and find them......weird-ish. With the 5AT I can manually shift to any gear I want but with the 7AT it monitors and will lock you out at times.

Maybe....It didn't do it with the 2012 G37x loaner I have today (car getting Eibach camber arms installed and aligned) so that's positive.

Thanks. I think I'm about done with upgrades now. Nothing really left other than VB mods unless I go boosted.
