I just bought these Carbon Fiber B-Pilar covers from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-08...3A1|240%3A1318

39.99. They are REAL carbon fiber (like a carbon fiber hood etc) with 3m backing tape. They fit over the B pilar which is black on the 350Z. For $40 they are really nice and look sweet on my car.


Not my car ^^^

What do women like? lol, i don't think she'll like the clear reflectors or CB stuff as most of the girls i know love the stock look of the Z. I don't think she'll appreciate an intake unless of course she's into cars. Again im going by the girls i know and not all in general. I suggest
-cargo net
-shorty antenna
-Z keychains
Pretty much 350z accessories, or better yet a $50 gift certificate to COACH lol

You can pick up a set of custom clear plastic mats at the dealership for about $45. They are see through and cover the nice factory mats. You know women trash their cars. This'll at least preserve her nice factory mats...

If you own a car such as the above, i assume that you have been through modding. Therefore, you would know that Eghay (ebay) is not the place to buy your mods, unless some designated cases.
I could keep your sis happy for an hour for $50
You chunderhead. It's his girlfriends sister, lol.

I think a stubby antenna would be sweet.

I dont have any ideas that havent already been said.

Just dont get her cheap *** intake that will tax the Z hp and tq. Your obviously not a Z nerd, no need to be, so just trust the people that spend waaay to much time here.

Just buy detailing stuff and detail her car anew. Wash, clay bar, wax, vacuum, clean the fabric etc... It'll make more of an impression then buy a pos oil filter cap.

You guys have me laughing over here.

I'm aware eGay isn't the place to be buying performance products, but I hardly consider a short ram intake as a performance product. As long as it's shiny metal and gives that throaty short ram-open filter sound, it's fulfilling it's intended purpose for me.

I guess now she heard I might buy her an intake and she's REALLY looking forward to it. It's nice having a g/f and a g/f's sister who are both into cars. I don't have to buy useless jewelry, just car parts. My g/f is getting adjustable rear control arms for her 3000GT this year lol.

So I ordered up a short ram intake, but you guys gave me plenty of ideas for her soon to come birthday present, which is greatly appreciated. I really just wanted to make sure there wasn't any special Z situation, where it could cause harm, that a Z noob like me wouldn't expect.

I really like the driving school idea, i'm always worried about that Z getting wrecked. Her first RWD car. I always warn her to be very careful in the wet, and even to find an empty parking lot and learn to deal with some sliding situations.

Thanks all for your help.

I'm truly disappointed in my forum members that nobody has asked to see pictures of your girlfriend and her sister. I apologize for that.

So, with that being said..
