Hello

Hey Guys!
That's my car.
I'm sorry i was slow answering some of your questions,bit my working hours are unpredictable.
The wheels are Sportmaxx
20x8,5 and 20x10
with 245 and 275's.
H&R Springs 1.2 front and 1 inch drop rear.
It is extremely low,yes you will scrape with your front bumper,but the craziest thing is that i scrape also with the cats.
The wheels look awesome,i always liked this kinda look.I'm thinking of replacing them with a black center,chrome lip(larger lip than now)or black lip,black center.

I will upload some videos right now.As you will notice i have done my tail and headlights.
The Exhausts are custom design,and they are mufflers only with mandrel bent pipes,powder coated,then painted black.
Check out the Video Forum for more!

Yeah, not feeling the "ricer" theme of color match wheels... Theres no contrast. Some G owners go all OUT. (black wheels, black car, black tent, black headlight housing, smoked out tails, smoked out side markers, black grill).. Too fast too furious.

You need to understand what the Term "RICER" represents and then make a comment.

Ricers were the 1st to use color match wheels. So it's a ricer no matter what you say. They were also the 1st to rebadge, the 1st to go JDM...

It's the evolution of Rice... From body kits, to neons, to huge wings and then it eventually went to the JDM phase...

However the honda boys are better at JDM then the Infiniti/Nissan guys... JDM in the honda world means OEM parts.

JDM in the Infiniti/Nissan world means anything aftermarket from Japan. hahahaha.

Have you ever left your room?
People in Europe have been color matching their wheels to their cars Years ago my friend.
Listen to what you are saying,Ricers were first to color match.
Riceres were first to De-badge???

I have De-badged all of my cars when i was still living in Europe.
Anything from my 1988 Peugot 205 GTI Rally,to my Rover Sterling,to my Fiat Uno Turbo,to my BMW 325,to my Mercedes Benz Evo I,to My Porsche.Is that "RICER"too???

But hey,
I will let you be with your toughts.
Maybe next you will say that TESLA http://www.teslamotors.com/ the makers of a 100% electric sports car,are the same people that invented Electricity>? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla

Btw.
The Lamborghini Countaches in the 80's had a color combo that was white with white wheels....I guess that's "Rice"???

On another note,let's see some pictures of your G....maybe after seeing the way yours looks like,i might change my mind and do what you did.
