I put a badged grill back on my car to be fair.  Still, you could hardly describe it a standard looking.

Badged grills are so much nicer but original G40 suspension!

I always think unbadged cars look like the ones you see on commercials for breakdown companies, where they don't want to offend the car manufacturers so they have to remove any identifying features.

Good man Pete.

The standard springs have never been off any of my G's! Same for the grill.  I must have been old before my time.
Anyway, G40 springs are lower than standard  :)  but not as low as a snake's belly.

Never changed the suspension on my G (see sig).   Looking at giving it an overhall sometime in the future!

When i first bought my G, i planned to go low, debadged etc etc.   but have gone back to badged, standard as you like, orange indicators and the original radio! :)
