Default Gift for 350z owner: Under $50

Hey guys/gals,

I'm looking to buy a christmas present for my girlfriend's sister, who owns a '03 350Z auto, in the price range of under $50. She has a 5 year extended warranty as of last year so i'm mainly concerned with not voiding it.

I was looking at the eGay cold air intakes, and they seem to fit what i'm looking for. Are there any known problems with them, or caused by them? Any warranty issues that may arrise from installing a CAI?

Again, not looking for a bang for buck deal, more bling/sound for buck while not hurting warranty deal.

Thanks for any help.

Any reasoning behind that?

I'll have to look into clear reflectors, not a bad idea.

If you can convince her, i'll buy the membership

A lot of good ideas coming out. I like the K&N drop-in filter idea, didn't think of that. Might actually give a slightly noticable hp gain.

As for the detailing products, I think i'm looking for more of a "able to bolt on/attach" type of gift here, though i'm not decided yet.

$50 @ Coach?

Also, if you truly love her, why Coach? There are better places than Coach. Coach is like a dollar store when talking about the high-end stores for women.

EXACTLY! Its his g/f's sister...you aren't supposed to love her..unless.....

Ok so yeah...$50 will buy some kinda change purse thingy...her sis will love it because $50 can actually buy stuff from Coach. Most of the chicks I know love that garbage so I just go by what they are saying....LOL.

Oh, I didn't realize it was his gf's sister. If that's the case, why even spend any amount?

1997 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 - BPU - 12.935@107 that's in your sig.
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
