Little things you guys do to your cars?
What are little things you do for your car to give it a nicer, cleaner look.
I'm talking about things like debadging, clear corners, etc etc.

Clear reflectors in the front bumper is a must.
Also tinted windows.

Yep, bunch of Z owners do this cheap, tasteful exterior mod. I personally have the JDM Altezza antenna which sits perfectly flush at the base, unlike the S2K antenna (it's close enough though). Much cleaner than the stock look.
