Had an MSA Type 7 Side Skirts, Rear Bumper Skirt & Turismo Wing installed. Body shop did a good job with it and was impressed with the quality of the MSA products--no so much with the Suzuka '07 lip I was going to install, but didn't (body shop said the quality of the urethane and the fit would have been more in labor to make it look good than what I paid for it--so I sent it back). Also got the dent in the fender from a shopping cart fixed. The whole thing took two weeks. It was worth it, but I'll have to admit--two weeks without the Z was the longest two weeks in my life...
This morning, I threw the Fast Intentions Intimidator Cat Back Exhaust System that I had purchased through the My350Z.com Christmas sale from THC Motorsports, in the back of the Z, and took it to a local shop to have it installed. The left side installed without a problem. There was an issue with the alignment of one of the flanges on the right side; but with a little "coaxing," the right side went on without further incident. The entire installation took around an hour and a half, the price was very reasonable, and the Z sounds incredible!
I currently have a JP USA Co, Ltd. Type S 350Z ’07 Front Under Spoiler on order, which should be here by the end of February at the earliest, or sometime in March, from Japan. The rest of this year's 350Z budget will go towards a set of wheels and either an iPod interface or head unit. No big brake & rotor kit until next year or when the current brakes and rotors actually wear out and need replacing--whichever comes first.
I'm pretty happy with how the car turned out. I'm looking forward to more modding as time and money allows. Some thanks are in order, so:

Thanks to:
- Aaron and Abraham at Motorsport Auto (350ZSource.com)
- Eddie & Co. & TH Motorsports.com & Fast Intentions.com for the Intimdator exhaust system that definitely lives up to its name!

All the usual insults and cheap-shots I'm sure I'll get about the wing (yeah, I really stay up nights worrying about that), doesn't matter. I like it. I built the car for me.
Let the flaming from the "gods" of My350.com who smite all those who do not share their views on what is acceptable on what an individual should do with their car, begin...
