Just creating my small corner for photo updates, have some cool stuff coming and wanted to share where I'm at so far ... the original goal from day one was something performance based with a black/charcoal color scheme, almost as if Infiniti had something comparable to the Audi Titanium addition. :tup:


Day one:

I would recommend these for sure, very underrated tires. The Parada's get a lot of love here, and rightfully so, but these look more aggressive, handle great, and are even cheaper. Can't go wrong imo, running 295/45/20 on all four :tup:

Awesome! What size tires are you running? Was it easy to remove the side vents?

295/45/20 ... Vents pop out easy but you have to push them out from the inside as they are held on by clasps that brake pretty easily.
 
sydney, did you get the part painted while they are on the car? I'm debating on whether to paint the grills and the roof rail or to just vinyl them. I want to go with the option that doesn't involve dissembly. oh and what offset are you running on your wheels again? :tongue (2):
 
Thanks for the positive feedback guys! I have my eyes on a BBK, looking to have it painted but not sure what color yet ... just not red.

I had everything removed by the shop before being painted ... Grill and trim removal was straight forward, as were the vents (inner fender liner needs to be removed and they just pop out from the inside).As for the rails, the end caps were removed and the rest then followed without having to mess with the headliner or anything like that from the inside. I wanted them to remove and install everything again for fear of scratching the newly painted pieces, but if you were to vinyl wrap, it may be more cost efficient to just hand over some individual pieces, not sure.

Wheels are 20x10 +40, sitting on 295/45 RH06's. I'm happy with that combo, flush but nothing extending too far kicking up debris. Plus, should look better once lowered. The right stance/set up makes 20's look very good imo :tup:
 
Thanks for the positive feedback, much appreciated!

I had my front end touched up and finally added a 3M kit this week, hopefully that will keep it looking good as I've never used one before. Also added covering to portions of the grill as well since that was freshly painted, hoping the investment is worth it :tup:
