You’re right. I forgot about those. I also put a small AOPA sticker on the rear window. I guess I’m just a mod freak after all.

Couldn't agree more, everytime I wash my car I cry when I see how crapped up the front bumper is. The paint literally just flakes off like cheap nail polish.
I have 8k miles and my bumper looks like **** from mostly city driving and 3 road trips. The road trips are what did me in.

If I could go back I would gladly pay $1000 to get the whole front end/hood clear bra'd

I agree with clear bra first to protect your investment.

What do you think of the Hypertech? I am looking at removing the throttle lag when you floor it from a stop. Can't believe I have to spend $500 to do that.

spend the same amount of money and get a custom tune when you are ready. does everything hypertech does plus it's 1000% better. you'll get good HP/TQ gains from a custom tune whereas with the hypertech you will really only get the throttle lag removed

I just have tint done now.
Clear bra should have been bought on day 1, my bumper has plenty of rock chips from all the roadwork being done here (thanks economic recovery act).

On the to do list it injen cai, fi exhaust, hotchkis sways, oem paddle shifters (someone help push me over the edge to start getting these)

ERZ HFCs.

Clear bra was a dealer thing. And I don't really consider tints a "mod". But I had those done 3 days after bringing the car home.

A set of volks and 350z h-techs! Later on i changed to a set of coils.. but i believe rims and a drop are first. (aside from tints, HID bulbs, etc.. the little stuff)
