Dropped on D2 coilovers...

[InfinitiEric]

Sickkkkk

[kermit the guy]

looking good , hey blanco what size are your rims?!, man i wanna lower my fronts just a tad more and it will look like that , but im scared ill be scrapin everywhere!

[a.blanco0905]

^^Thanks Eric & Kermit... I'm on 20s and I cant really enjoy the suspension as is (I'm always scared, lol.) So Ima raise it up a tad, lol...

[InfinitiEric]

I'm boredddddd. heat lost

so how's the coilovers been like since you got them on Blanco?

[a.blanco0905]

^They're a dream come true dude, but I'm so low that Im driving scarily lately, lol... and I'm always expecting the clank from the uca and sometimes it doesnt happen sometimes it does, but I def have to raise it up a tad, but I love the stance so much that it's a shame, somebody had mentioned how our cars' under carriage is so badly engineered that u can really be that low and I'm guessing that's a very accurate statement.

[InfinitiEric]

NO!! DON'T RAISE IT!!!! It looks so good right now!! Just be super careful with it.. But I hear you though about expecting loud noises, sometimes even when I go at 1mph and turn the car at an angle going over a speed bump it still clanks down the center when the exhaust pipes hit the top of the bump. It makes me cringe because I'm waiting for the pipes to just start falling out and I see them out my rear view mirrors haha

Any luck getting the aero kit??

Lol, Mex actually made me go check how low I am man, & it doesnt seem to be that low on pix but if you check underneath, the exhaust components are about 2 inches off the ground, (resonators, cats, flex pipes.) And they're all scraped up... not a good look man, lol... So I'm guessing you on coilovers now?

[a.blanco0905]

Here u go Mex... my actual lowness, lol...

[mexillis]

Your roads must be nice to have ur exhaust in tact still lol. Just make sure u don't mess up ur stillen exhuast being that low.

I don't know what the Infiniti engineers were thinking when they designed the exhaust system on our cars. Honestly, a kindergardener that just learned how to draw squares and count to 2 would have done a better job. They should have made it so the exhaust pipes were mounted completely flush with the rest of the underbody paneling. I also don't like how our exhaust tips are grooved with a severe downward angle. Really, take a look at your tips from the side at about 15 feet away and you'll see how odd it looks.

That's ridiculously low, way lower than I thought from the other pictures. You're living a crazy lifestyle driving that low.

I completely take back my last comment about not raising it, you better do it before something gets dented!!

[a.blanco0905]

^Lmao... told ya...

I'm actually going to sell my coilovers, but Enigma has dibs on them, if he doesnt want them they're available for anybody... I just sent him a PM waiting on his answer.

2009 Dartz Prombron Monaco Red Edition

The 2009 Dartz Prombron Monaco Red Edition SUV offered an interior made of leather crafted from a male whale's sex organ. When the vehicle was introduced in 2009, news of the feature quickly circulated through Internet forums; most people assumed it was a joke. It wasn't. Some found it funny, but most found it offensive. Public pressure eventually drove Dartz to discontinue the option, and it was replaced with standard leather.

Stephen's daily ride. Whatever happened to my buddy Stephen?

[a.blanco0905]

I've talked to him on facebook... he's kinda busy lately.

Miss him and his shiny black neoprene rubber body suit...

Tell him I've got a line on how he can get a bunch of talcum powder cheap.

Here's the M45 that I've been getting some inspiration from lately. I think it looks pretty cool with the all white scheme it has going on - especially check out the white grille and blacked out headlights as those will hopefully be my next two mods on my car. I already had the side mirrors completed painted (the stock mirrors are painted black on the bottom and against the window) and FYI I don't plan on putting chrome trim pillars on my car like he did

So what do you guys think? Looks good or not? Should I paint the hood trim white too or leave it chrome?

[a.blanco0905]

^That M is ur inspiration??? U kidding right??

[sunoco]

Looks sick. I love the white out. Def paint the hood trim white. I'd do the trim pillars white too. I think im gonna color match mine...

[InfinitiEric]

^That M is ur inspiration??? U kidding right??

Just for the grille and the headlights

Looks sick. I love the white out. Def paint the hood trim white. I'd do the trim pillars white too. I think im gonna color match mine...

Hmm white pillars, I didn't even think about that. I gotta spend some time in Photoshop and see how that will look. Thanks for the idea!

[SiMpLyMoDiFiEd]

ok not to bring up the past but how do I order this kit? Dont say that site I dont read Japanese


I do have a friend in Owki

[a.blanco0905]

Look up burtman industries then email or phone Jason nd ask for a quote.

[EniGmA1987]

The site says it is the Vlene body kit, but it looks slightly different from other Vlene pictures I have seen. Maybe it is a different model of the kit. In another post on that site the guy does say it is a Vlene body kit.

That site doesnt list where to buy it, and the page you linked is actually about the new rims the guy had put on, not the kit.

[kermit the guy]
