My 09 G37S...advice?

This is my baby! Had one previous owner who had it less than a year and only 9000 miles, fully loaded! Warranty expires in 2018.















find more here My G37S pictures by qhill_photos - Photobucket

I also have two 10" Punch woofers in addition to the mods listed in my sig. Any advice for performance or aesthetics?

The car looks VERY clean. Good buy!

One thing I've seen is people tapping into the power supply of the mirror to power the radar detector for a cleaner look. If I ever bought a radar detector that's one thing I'd probably invest in.

Nice ride, but......
Your radar detector needs some help. Stealth Cord and Mike's Mount. Google those two things, buy them, and thank me later. I couldn't live without my Passport 9500ix, but I couldn't live with it unless I had the stealth cord and mount.

I use a stealth cord for my Passport, but no mount.
Instead I ordered a longer cord, i think it was 12" instead of 8". This way I was able to wind the cord once around the mirror mount, so when the suction cups break loose the detector hangs from the cord instead of falling and possibly damaging something inside the car.

I'll be sure to look into it, thanks!

I was thinking of doing high-flow cats and a cat back. I've seen a few suggestions, but I need to know what will give the best balance of performance while keeping the car VIP. Now what's this about 180 painting the headlight housings (sorry, still new to the game!)? And I did change the door panel tweets and put two punch 10's in the trunk with a punch amp.
