Hey guys and gals, been browsing this site for the past 6 months ago and finally created an account a few months ago I mainly just browse but here and there post. I have an 08 350z Nismo. I bought it in late Feb this year with 9k miles and currently since it is my dd has 14k miles! Got her for 25k after taxes which I thought was a steal. She is flawless inside and out. ( other than the few rock chips from picking it up from Memphis and taking back to my home in Newport News,VA ) Anyway enough talk so here are a few pics. Currently I have installed a injen cold air intake and got my windows and head/tail light tinted. Plan on as of now just getting some bolt on parts and getting a tune/dyno but if the gtm supercharger turns out reliable and nice may change my mind









and my beater toyota tercel 37 mpg ftw! haha

I got both my head and tail light tint from http://www.headlightarmor.com/ ...After putting it on I did notice a slight dim from my head lights and that is with the light smoked tint so I would not recommend getting the darker one if you are stock lights like my self Now the tail lights I have the dark tint and no difference at all to me

Agreed. Car looks good.

I tell the dealers that I won't buy the car if they put that crap on the car (or remove it if it is already on). I don't mind the license plate frames, but stickers are a no-no.
