04 Infiniti G35x from IN

So, I've hung out, learned and looked at classifieds on here for a while. I just figured I'd throw up my ride as it has slowly moved more towards form > function. When I first bought this car it had an STS rear mount turbo on it. It was a lot of fun and very unique seeing as it's an X and therefore AWD. I don't seem to have any pics of it when I first bought it but it came with G35 coupe 19" Rays wheels. They were pretty curbed up though so I sold them and bought the Stern ST8s that are on it now. 18 x 8.5" in the front and 18 x 9.5" in the rear (2" lip up front and 3" lip in the rear). You can see that the turbo required a higher ride height as well, haha.

However, the IN weather and the turbo and filter under the car didn't really mix so I removed it and used that money to buy a Titan Hydraulic Lift to make all future projects easier, :D.

I didn't like the chrome grill or the stock bumper but I have a 2 and a half year old so I have no money, haha. So, I modded the bumper myself with my dremel and added the yellow fogs wired into my parking lights.

I changed up the rear of the car by removing the red lines that cross the reverse lights, removing the Infiniti badge and plastidipping the Mt. Fuji and X emblem (which I removed the "G35" part from). I also added the lip spoiler.

New (next to my brother in law's stock G35x):

Here's another shot of it from the front showing the difference between stock and now:

I also plastidipped the side door ding protectors to bring the black and chrome theme all the way through the car:

Any ways, just thought I'd share! Good to be here.
