Love the front fitment. The rears def could use a bit more work (camber, pull, something..) I don't hate it; kinda like it, just needs to be finished a bit better.

Looks lame. The VIP thing is getting people to do stupid things

(bitkahuna: deleted pics - no need to show again)

just as a heads up, this guy and his crew are legit Vip guys (MrExecutive, Racinstylez-something like that-can you say ls430TT). I wish Mike would have posted the whole story that the car is going in for some work to get the wheels to fit proper. They know what they are doing and these pics are showing how they fit BEFORE modification.

keep doing your thing!

//continue your rant guys//

if they were legit VIP guys wouldn't they be using a legit VIP platform??????????? A G35 by any standard is not a VIP sedan. A Chrysler 300 is more VIP than a G35 imo.

you are right, but i'd just suggest keeping an open mind on this one, that's all, considering the other cars they put out. The styling will be there. Pretty much saying that people assumed this was the final look, when it's not. but hey, isn't this why these type of threads go in the Vip section anyway? ahh who cares though.

Car is a crew member of mine. He was bored and took pics before taking it to the body shop to have the rear fitted properly and touch up things here and there... It should be done in the next coming months.
