lucky you... i wish someone would have given me a car, even if it was a honda... as much as i hate to say that...

at least you got really low miles for that year of a 350z, idk if im liking the paint job though.. it doesnt flow well enough for me... hope you like it though, and dont rice the ****** out, as only being 21 myself i know how people are at our age, they LOVE stickers and crazy flashy bullcrapp that does nothing for the car at all, if you do something please do it right, dont ruin a great 350z
which means dont add a body kit, slam it and have hella neg camber...

Well, that's certainly a unique paint job. Looks like the hatch is misaligned. Might want to check and see if the lower mounts for the support struts aren't mounted upside-down. 15K miles is pretty amazing. Make sure you get all the maintenance done, as even with that low mileage, you might have hoses, belts, filters, etc., which may need replacement.

As others have said, congratulations on the car. Please don't ruin it. It would be sad to see such a low mileage car raped with body kits, poor-fitting exhaust, and weird colors.

A body kit isn't rice unless it's some poor fitting, no-name, ebay crap.

Congrats! I'm not feeling that weird color scheme. I suggest your first mod should be getting rid of that and the 350Z stickers. There's already an emblem on the trunk that says that, you don't need anymore. Also remove the radio antenna and the Audi wheels.

15K Miles?! NICE!

Don't worry about "ruining" the car. Do whatever makes you happy.

I think paint would be my first priority. Either making the car completely silver again or wrapping it in whatever color you like. Then I would shoot for some new wheels.

Congrats on the Z man!

yeah i mainly just meant those together, its different however if your adding springs for improved handling, thats a different story...

also for op a word of advise if you do buy a body kit dont buy duraflex, everyone here complains about their fitment being crazy wayy off..

It is always nice to see sport cars are passing on from one generation to one generation by family members. For that reason, I am sure this Z meant a lot to you. So enjoy what you have now while you are still young and single. Just do what makes you feel happy and you won't regret it. But don't forget to take good advice from my350z members. Because they are your friends and resources which will enhance your 350Z experience. Lastly, tell your Grandpa another thank you when you have a chance. Good luck and enjoy your 350Z.
