Post The Development of My G =)

I made this thread over on G35NYC..and figured why not just make it here too. I can't go over how many times I've gotten PM after PM about my car, mostly about the headlights/grill, but even the bulbs I'm using!! My HID's were bought from a local shop, all LED's purchased on eBay, the rest..PM X-Vert..he is "Igor" when I refer to him in this thread...

Well..under the suggestion from Igor, I decided to make a thread to document all the mods/changes with my car. It's been great ever since I picked it up on March 21, 2008...but oh man..the money being spent on it really never stops!

March 21, 2008 -- Day of Pick Up from Kenny(Da Mayor) -- Already With 20% Tints


The next..and I guess by far the mod that changed the look of my car forever..was the headlights/grill/emblem painting that we did. Thank you Quimby once again for the idea..and Igor for doing a clean job with it. I'll definitely never forget the initial reaction..and at this time people didn't even KNOW I had the car, after this mod was done was the first time everyone actually found out I got the car.

March 28, 2008 -- Grill painted OB, Emblem painted IP, Headlight housing pained OB, Projector shroud painted IP, Debadged Rear

















Next mod that had to be done..was to do a drop on my car for the first time ever..I ordered Tein H Techs and thanks to Konrad for putting these on for me.

April 16, 2008 -- Put on Tein H Techs







April 20, 2008 -- 6000K HID's, Hyper White City Lights, Hyper White Turn Signals..Not much of a mod







June 7, 2008 -- GReddy Ti-C Exhaust Installed..Thanks to Kirk/Lou @ Ampd..I LOVE my exhaust!
