my G is pretty much stock looking, just lowered and the SSR wheels, factory lip and a small trunk lip. :)


no z action today either. no time. i will check on her later on tonight though. :p

Ken, my G was stock.... I posted pics of it before, remember? Black and uberly polished with not a swirl on her. I personally thought it was hawwwt, but apparently no one else did. Wife always told me too, it looks like "a normal everyday car" :shakes head:

Yeah I feel that way too sometimes. A few weeks ago, I come out of the store to see 2 ladies in their 40's, professional business dressed peering over my car and talking, pointing, and smiling. They see me come out, then they scurry back to their Lexus. I had a feeling they thought it was a porsche :bowrofl: I felt insulted!!!! :tiphat:

ive never had anyone really ask to take a pic, but a few weeks ago it was quite amusing to see a dude in an evo 9 pull out his iphone and lean over his dash to take a pic while sitting in traffic. :icon18:

drove the Z to work today, its party cloudy with no rain forecasted for the rest of the summer. got to enjoy the glittery goodness of a freshly clayed/polished/sealed pearl white. its sooo buttery smooth :excited:

See Chops?!?!?! pearl white polished, glazed, and sealed and waxed is unbeatable IMO.

EDIT: polished and DESWIRLED, that is. ;)

It is just how I present myself to the world. i assure you, and everyone I know and have known will testify, that I am not normal. I would not be on this forum if I was.

No doubt. What "normal" person would be a member of a car forum and be responding to daily threads of "what did you do with your car"? LOL. Yes, we are all AB-normal. That's for sure.

huh, ok maybe you needed to lower it and get some nice wheels them. :tup: hahaha. i too agree that when i see a stock G35C these days it doesn't really sparkle as the first time i saw the 03's with brembo's back in the days. :)

hey, i never wore Griot's shirts~! :D lol actually im not that big on griots as you might think. i only use like their entire line up. ;) jk hahaha.

Yeah the design is still timeless, I agree. However, when you pose the G next to the Z (at least when I did), the G started to show it's simplicity and its age.... that's for sure.

And as far as Griots, you know I'm just givin' ya a hard time :) :p

yep, recent cars have all sorts of angles and decorative lines where as the G back in the days were all for simplicity. nissan used big bumpers front and rear on the G35C so it has the timelessness. but they are cars from 2 different era's no doubt.

which has better styling in my line up? can't compare because the way i put these two cars together they have completely different themes.

my G is for dressup with elegance, my Z is for sport. so i can understand why more greasy doods like my Z than the G. :icon17:

This comment made me look up Griot's. Now I'm thinking about buying a random orbital from them. Do you get a referral fee? lol

I went for a ride today and saw a mid 90's Z28 with a "Import Killer" sticker in the back window. Looked fairly stock. I have no idea if it was capable because I just rolled by.

He looked my way but I guess he didn't feel like committing murder today. :D

Hey, Junkman said that if you're not careful with the Flex you can burn the paint off your car. Are there different flavors of the Flex with a model similar to the PC7424XP?
