Spent about $300 and went from stock to this

Well, I worked on the G some this weekend. Installed a set of Eibach pro-kits, Painted my Stock sport wheels a deep gunmetal, painted calipers red and added brembo decals, and also painted my grill satin black. I think it was a big appearance change for the amount of money spent. I have more performance mods to come just trying to make time to get it ordered and put on. Let me know your opinions

drop looks great! you also did a great job with the wheels... you'll probably get flamed for the calipers, but hey, just cuz i wouldn't do it doesn't mean it doesn't look good. congrats.

Not sure if you know this or not, but there's a big telephone pole coming out of the top of your car. Dunno if I like that mod or not...

Wheels didn't turn out bad, but come on man, they're not Brembos, be proud of what you have... don't pretend.

There's still time to take this from a fail to a win. Since our cars don't have Brembo brakes, take those stickers off. Then the utter failure of that one thing won't overshadow all the other great mods you've done.

Why would you slap a Brembo sticker on brakes that aren't made by Brembo anyway?
