Any alterations to your suspension will void your suspension warranty but not things unrelated to that.

I think that is the best drop I've ever seen on a G37. For some reason, G37 owners seem compelled by supernatural forces beyond their control to lower the car to ridiculousness, where the wheel well is so low on the tire, the tire looks like it is wearing some sort shiny bronze-age helmet, it's all out of wack, they get huge side flowing side gaps and it just look Chesire, to to quote top gear. Your drop is perfectly symmetrical, it looks like it was meant to be that way, like an M3 or and AMG. Best drop yet. Reasonable and attractive, and I bet you still have a nice ride, not some stilty, jarring mess like all my slammed buddies.

I agree, the OP's drop looks bang on and how I think Infiniti should sell the car in the first place...at least the 'S' models.
It looks pretty close to the drop Eibach's give you and I like your witty 'helmet' remark too. Any lower than this isn't for me but for some it's what they like..that's cool.

on Eibachs ProKit (1.5" front, 1.2" rear)

Drop looks perfect, although I'm a little biased since I have a similar drop with Eibach PK . However, I still can't get over how weird the rear wheels look not concave. I understand you wanted to be able to rotate your tires but it just looks awkward to me...

Okay, here are some more pictures, as requested. Thank you for the compliments, fellas... much appreciated. I spent a little bit of coin making her look so nice. (actually, a lot, but who's counting besides my wife?)

Would you mind posting some measurements, from the ground up to the high point of each fender?

The front is almost exactly 27" just a red **** hair under.

The rear is 26 7/8". So they're almost equal.
