Sort of new to the site/Z
Hi! I joined this site in 08 when I was looking for a 350Z. I kinda forgot about it, but I did in fact find what I was looking for. The end of November will mark one year owning my 2005 350Z. It is Daytona Blue and is the Enthusiast, 6 speed.
I haven't done too much to it. A few odds and ends here and there:
-19x8.5 ET 40 and 19x9.5 ET 40 Rays G-Game wheels
-255/40/19 and 175/40/19 Kumho Ecsta tires
-Blue Muteki open-ended lug nuts
-Satin black brake calipers
-Duramax Gold ceramic brake pads
-Carbon fiber b-pillar appliques
-Carbon fiber emblem inserts (front/rear/sides)
-Nismo spoiler
-Mangowalk antenna
-5% window tint
-Tinted tail lights
-White cold cathodes (Footwells)
-Kenwood Excelon KDC-X792 Head Unit
-Z door sills
-Blue cold air intake with Fujita filter
-SRS catback exhaust
-Megan Racing test pipes
-Two degree advanced timing
-Tanabe lowering springs 1.2" front/1.2" rear
-Custom license plate: ENVYMYZ
I'm currently in the process of tinting my headlights and getting a front lip, though I probably won't be getting around to painting my front lip until December or so.
Here are the pics from when I bought it until now... Tell me what you think! Thanks.
^First morning of owning it. I think I took these pics at 6AM lol
^First day
^Intake, excuse the dirty engine bay, lol
^Smoked the tails, Honda S2000 antenna
^Painted the stockies bronze, redid all the tint to 5%
^My other car, lol
^You can kinda see my CF a-piller appliques
^New wheels, springs, swapped the Honda antenna to a shorter one

Thanks guys for the welcome.
The bronze wheels did turn out pretty good. I wasn't planning on buying new wheels until I wore out my tires... but I stumbled across a great deal on eBay for the wheels I have now. They are Rays G-Games 99b and they were $1,100 shipped brand new in the box with the blue protective plastic film on them.
The wheel specs are 19x8.5 ET 40 and 19x9.5 ET 40 and I have them balanced on 255/40/19 and 175/40/19 Kumho Ecsta tires.
Oh, and FYI I am a girl.

Thanks guys! I do a lot of local stuff with both of my cars, and I'm on the forums a lot with my other car, but no so much my Z so I'm glad to be here.
I installed my test pipes last night, the car sounds a lot better! i am impressed at how much sound these things can put out.
