Default I don't know what to do next!!

Hey peeps, so I have done some things to my z thus far and can't think of what to do next to her. I've done plenty non-performance mods besides a long ram intake and a plenum spacer. I just don't know what is the next best thing to do? I've searched and just can't seem to find what i'm looking for so if you guys have any input it would be greatly appreciated.

So far I have done: black housing headlights, black front z emblem, nismo v2 front, short antenna, slightly blacked out tail lights, black rims, complete alpine sound system, long ram intake, plenum spacer, HIDs (yeah she was bare stock), 5 percent tint all around, hardwired v1.

here are a few pics of her





thanks!

You need some better rims baaaaad. Finish off the kit, lower the front more rear looks lower, upgrade to 06+ headlights or get oem led tails.

whats the point of modding if you're going to ask others on what to do?

Actually the last picture is quite old so it does look better from that. And I've only done what I can afford so far (graduating soon). The rims I just did black for the time being. I do have plans to buy rims but not just yet. I wanted to focus on some performance mods for the time being.

And the car ride is stock so not sure why the rear would look lower. I don't know how much I want to lower it since the roads I drive on daily are killer for my already scraping bumper

What are your goals? Are you just modding for looks or to say you have certain parts on your car? If you have a clear goal ie, autocross, drag racing etc. then you'll have a clearer path of what to get next. A man with a compass is better off than a man without. I say take your car back to the drawing board and see what you want to gain out of your car. What's more important to you?

really, OP. Just get wheels, have them somehow flushed with the fender lines and you can decided whats the next step from there. The Z is begging for it IMO.
