NewInfiniti on the Prowl

As of today, well delivery Wednesday, I am the proudnew Leasee of an 09 G37x Sedan. What i was wondering from you guys is which mods should I go for first. I'm going to black out the tail lights and smoke the front. Im on 16 so I can't be spending thousands and thousands of dollars on mods, which although are great, they're a bit expensive. before you make a stereotype IM PAYING for the car, or at least the monthly payments!!! and if anyone has pics of a blacked out black sedan that would be great, Thanks GUYS!!! I'll put up pics as soon as i have the car

Congrats and welcome. What's your budget for mods?

I would stay away from blacking out lights since it's illegal in most states.

I would just get your car tinted first then switch the hid bulbs to 6000k. smoking out taillights on a stock car doesnt look right.

First off: CONGRATS on the new car!

Second: You just said you leased the car....are you sure you want to be doing mods? Everything has to be back to the factory look/settings before you turn the lease in, or they actually charge you big money....just a heads up.

Lastly, Are you still in high school? If you dont mind me asking, how do you afford the $400+ a month on your lease plus the $100 a month on insurance? I wish I was making that kind of money back in highschool. I was making $6 an hour! LOL

regarding the HID bulbs, is it just a straight swap? meaning can i get a replacement HID bulb or do I also need the Ballast? and regarding the lights, i truly like the look. As far as legality I've blacked out a White Tahoe and i still have to get pulled over, its my mothers car/my experiment before I do everything to my car...

My lease is for 355, its 1000 Under invoice, i think the final price was 34k from the 35k Dealer and the 39k MSRP on the website, and the insurance is quiet hefty, $200. Luckily my parents gotmy back on that one. And during the summer i make 350+ a week, so i get like 10 weeks work, and then i can pay the lease...

I was just informed by the Dealer they sold me a car they DIDN'T have, i had selected black on black but settled for Silver on Black, this way I can do a black roof and black out the window trim!!!

Thanks to everyone for their replies, I'll take your advice and i'll do the tints. I'm thinking 20%...? or maybe keep it legal at 35%, especially how im blacking out the tail lights, I dont wanna give cops more reason to pull me over...

Personally i tinted my BlackMamba 20% and i think it looks real classy. I think since my car isn't one that has a ton of mods that it would look tacky going to dark. I don't know about the taillights though bro. Congrats on the new whip and welcome to our family!!!

I guess it would seem as if everyone is against tinting the lights, i've done a quick rendering and they seem to look pretty good...
