Do you really have an 07? Just curious because some of those mods are not for the HR's. I want to change my head unit badly as well.

Slightly revised edition, already replaced my Cusco upper a-arms with SPLs for more adjustability to get back to OE alignment specs. Even though I had my alignment done it's still not where it should be. Gotta find a shop that knows what adjustment to make for modified suspensions. Not happy to see the insides of my PS2 getting wasted....Gary

What's HR mean? Also if that is referring to the plenum mod I really haven't read up on it yet, it just seems like a fun easy way to get under the hood.

^HR is a type of engine offered in some G35's. It was only offered in the sedans so you don't have one.

Nothing really.. unless its a cheap DIY. I'm done for the most part for mods that I'll realistically have done. I'd love a new bumper, cf hood and exhaust if my money was right
