Kirtis, what wheel specs did you end up with and what tire sizes are you planning to run? Should look nice on your G!

Because I like to be different, I went with the "I N F N I T I" option de-badging. My 8 year old thought it looked cooler than the naked look.

Installed my new to me Z1 CAI. Only took 4 hrs due to looking for instructions and trying to find screws. I stubbornly refused to take off the bumper and made it work through lots of grunting and fighting.


Also, wrapped front grill in satin black. I like it better than the gloss.



Finally, clear coated the wheels to give it more pop.




Trim is next on list...

^Nice Saltman. That satin finish on the grill does indeed look good. Are you planning on using the same finish for the window trim?

I went with
20x8.5 in the front
20x10.5 in the rear

I wanted a square set up, but I do drywall and I'm always driving so 10.5 on the front wouldn't be practical for me. I don't remember the offset to be honest, but I'll be sure to update with that soon enough.

As for rubbers, not sure yet either, I don't want it too thin or too thick (no homo Lmao) so I'm gonna have to test and see unless you or anyone else has an idea how you figure out the right rubber size, would be a great help

Nice look there Saltman.

Kirtis, typical tire sizes on those 20" staggered sets are usually 245/35 front and 275 or 285/30 back depending on your offset. If your offset is aggressive in back, like a +30 you might have to run a stretched 255/35 back there.

thanks ETrev. I'm thinking I will but trying to decide on it still cause I already did the bottom part in gloss. Don't want to have to remove that.

I took the grill off and just did it with time and patience.


Update....
Also wrapped fog lights and a yellow lamin-x cover.



I really gotta get those lights done. Soon... very soon...

Didn't write it up totally, but I put more pics of it in this thread when I did it originally. I actually got the idea from another member on here who did it. It's a cheap ebay lip for a WRX that I cut down to fit. https://www.myg37.com/forums/g37-sed...ml#post4068190

Thanks, Saltman. Looks subtle and very appealing along the entire front, which is why it caught my eye this time. But the wrap-around corners just don't fit.

Thank you for the response and the pics.

Picked up my car from winnipeg hid. Semi gloss black housing, sti clear lens, morimoto switchback angel eyes, new oem projectors and had the turn signal lens removed. A must do mod in my opinion. Looks amazing. Now i need to make some friends at the infinti dealership so that they disable my drl which is really stupid that i cant turn all the lights off and just have the halos run which is only a problem for the canadian infinitis
