Default My Z is complete... for now

So I set a limit of how much I'd spend on my Z this year and I've reached it. Yes, I know I still need wheels... that's next year.
My upgrades so far include rear nismo spoiler, headers, intake, intake manifold upper and lower with spacer, 07-08 style hood, black roof and front lip, and tinted windows.
Next years budget includes wheels, and exhaust.

Yes, I'm sorry that this is another "Look at my Z" post. But I'm proud

stuff like paint your roof can be done for VERY cheap on your own if you want to give it a shot. the way i look at it, if you mess up painting it, the paint shop can undo it when they do it professionally

Looks good, save the Nismo spoiler. Never been a fan. You are being smart about your spending too. Way to go!

I really hate those stock wheels, but once those are replaced, you'll be on the right track

Don't forget the stance... Coilovers is the way to go, but if you're looking at a budget, a good set of lowering springs will do...

And you should be proud, it looks really nice. I just did the same with the Nismo V1 spoiler, 07+ hood and tint. Once I get Nismo sides I will be done modding this year as well.

You should have bought wheels and tires first IMO.

Also, the painted calipers make your setup look really cheap. Those have got to go ASAP.
