The biggest problem that I have with that (among assorted others) is the wing. Tell me, why is it that people put the most god-awful looking wings on the sweetest cars? My idea is the Porsche turbo rear wing. Now that's classy; it matches the color and profile of the car while still doing it's job. Personally, I'll probably end up putting one on my Z down the road (after a lot of engine/suspension mods). However, I won't put on one of thos thin, carbon fiber wings that seem to be so popular at car shows. Oh no, mine will be along the lines of the Porsches': deffinately close to the car, with some meat to it, and in the matching color.
On another note, a kid where I go to school did much the same thing to his Ford Focus ZX. First, he lowered it, then put on big, shiny rims, tinted the windows, and put on a bunch of stickers for performance parts that he doesn't have. The real kicker is that after his dad paid for all of this, the kid still couldn't drive it, he's too young! What a joke, and on top of it, why would anyone choose a Focus to modify? For there are many, many other cars that would be a better choice for 16,000 and actually give him some performance. Oh well...

"high performance chip and exhaust"
Looks like when he say exhaust he means the stock one you get from nissan. Still not sure what kind of high performance chip he thinks he has. I'm gonna call and ask him.
