Jeffrey Bonilla has always loved cars from a young age. His first car was an 2003 Infiniti G35, "it meant everything to me," mentions Bonilla, "I slowly built it up, then 2 weeks before I was supposed to get it dyno-tuned I got rear-ended by a Ferrari." He cried at the hospital, "I was in pain but it hurt more to lose my first car."
Bonilla now owns a 2005 Infiniti G35. He stripped down his 2003 G35 and swapped the parts right into the new car. At that moment, he was fortunate enough to fall into his band of brothers, Local Union 3, and he continued to build and buy more parts - carbon fiber and all the tunes he could want.
"The problem with NY," mentions Bonilla, "is not that we don't have car groups, but it's that we don't have quality car groups like in California." Along with some friends, Bonilla started GentlemenZ Car Club - NY Chapter. "Now I can say that I can look at my car and smile," states Bonilla. "I can also look at everyone else's build next to me and smile even more."

FAVORITE MODIFICATION
"Between the VIS hood or Admin tune. The hood is carbon fiber in full view with the vents and painted white rain cater under it for contrast. The Admin tune gave my car a better feel even after the first tune, and only changing from high flow cats to test pipes. Plus, it shoots flames!"
