Wow, if your so rich why do you drive a 04 350z? 4-5k in exterior modifications is considered cheap to you?

Rims
Tires
Exhaust system - header back momentum exhaust system
Nismo Wing
Car Wrap Mats + labor
Headlights
Body Kit
Clear Side markers




lol....

For $4-5 grand I would have went Volk rims and Eibach Sportline springs. Or used Volk rims and Koni shocks / Swift spring combo.

Or 3/4th of S&R Single turbo install package.

Yeah its more a racing modification......

0-60 5.2 seconds imo is fast. Fast enough.


I am planning to buy a house first then put a momentum single turbo kit after I buy a house with my own garage. I would not feel comfortable leaving a super modded 350z outside in a rented apartment.

Since the header back momentum exhaust exceeded my expectations on practically every level.....I can't wait one day to buy their turbo kit.

Momentum is no longer in business anymore. They went under a while back and the last kits were being sold by National Speed for an insane low install price of $6500. They've already sold out of them though. Its a shame to, many considered their parts as one of the best.

What your saying is obviously true, momentum is no longer in business, but a lot of their turbo kits have been given away to some shops. I have called quite a few of them that actually have them in stock. I plan on buying one and just putting it in storage for a future date. I plan on relocating in california and most likely it won't past smog or emissions.

It won't. That's a guarantee.

Yeah it sucks, right now I brought my car back to the wrap shop for them to fix some imperfections on the car for me. Also they are wrapping my tourenn rear bumper and putting my replica nismo Spoiler on the back after they finish wrapping that as well. I also told them to put in the clear side corner reflectors instead of the orange ones.

This is the Tourenn Style Rear Bumper

Here is the Nismo Repica Wing

The wrap will look great if its done professionally which usually costs 1-2K.

The exhaust I am a big fan of, the headlights look great, I would get the wheels you want even if they cost a little bit more. But instead of body mods you would be so much happier with a good set of lowering springs and struts or set of BC coilovers. Some handling mods make a huge difference on the stock Z, braces, control arms, coilovers, and its like a whole different car, pair that with some good looking wheels and tires and it make the Z look sick.
I would definitely agree with MI 35th, I might as well give my excuse, the reason why i decided to not lower my car is because I currently live in Hawaii and the state government here is really poor the roads have huge dips going in and out of parking lots and tremendous amount of potholes, Hawaii is not ideal for...lowered cars,

I am going to be relocating to Cali at the end of this month and that is when I will buy BC Racing Coilovers and lower the car because the roads in cali are much better and entrance/exits are more forgiving and ideal for lowered cars....

my project is pretty much completed.

I wanted to add some more stuff and two tone the color with a flat black or a satin black.


Ideas on flat black or satin black.

1.) wrap half of side skirts
2.) repaint rims dark dark gray metallic with a black circle
3.) top half of spoiler is black
4.) wrap middle bar in back of rear bumper black


I also purchased these off of ebay,

http://www.ebay.com/itm/400679819485...84.m1497.l2649

I think it will work well with the color. apparently it is not a film, it was made to be a crystal smoked color.

What do you guys think?

400 for the wrap and 900 for labor I also wrapped the side mirror lids, roof, and bottom half of side skirts in matte black so it matches the matte black front lip so now it's two tone matte dark gray and matte black


I also purchased brand new KW V1 coilovers from a forum member Jason Nathan for 950 shipped will install them

my next few mods will be to replace all the bushings and get some hotchkis sway bars
