True I'll try to find some pics of a white Z with CF front lip and see how it looks. You guys are just talking about the lip though not a front bumper?

This^^^ Unless you already own it. I just recently paid my Z off, and now I have to pay vet bills I've been putting off to pay the Z off. American Dream=debt though

I went with the MREV2 and Kinetix V+ plenums, AND with the best intake of them all....The stock intake with a K&N drop in filter!

Hotchkiss for the win!!! I was looking into whiteline for a while, but 4 & 3 settings can't be beaten. I got mine for a steal too. Keep your eyes on the marketplace

Start from the ground up. Hotchkiss sways, check all your bushings, maybe replace/upgrade to kinetix,spl,PBM,etc arms, coils, good tires. I would focus more on handling than gaining 5-10hp. You won't notice a small gain without a tune. You'll notice better handling instantly.

This.

why is everyone suggesting he throw sway bars on his car? sway bars are a tuning tool that you install after you've decided you want the car to behave in a different manner. it's not something you just slap on for the hell of it, imo.

drive the car and figure out if it behaves in a manner that bothers you and that sway bars can help remedy, or skip em all together. the car is dialed in with a bit of understeer and that's a GOOD thing for most drivers.

I'd suggest audio unless you already have a screen and are just upgrading.
