Talking Just bought an 04 coupe and now asking for advice from experienced owners...

Shes bone stock...got a couple grand to spend on her...was wondering what mods you guys think would be good to start with. Im not currently focused on any type of engine modifications, possibly some minor things but just not any internal work.

Im really trying to focus on the exterior look of the vehicle at first....just let me know what you guys think......Thanks

Motordyne 5/16" plenum spacer, cold air intake. Theres your motor stuff since you arent concerned there.

Coilovers/Rims - fastest easiest way to upgrade exterior look. ( I say fastest but I'm not considering that the rims may have an arrival date of 90 days out). Make sure you research and get what you like as this can add up very fast.

Another new question....:)

Hell yes, the MotorDyne spacer is the best bang for your buck! Sways are
great but they won't make your car run any better, that mod's down the
road after exhaust and wheels. If you get the spacer and z-tube from
Stillen, drop in filter from K&N your intake will work great....that's a start!

do you have a swaybar on your car? if you install one you'll know what i mean
He didnt want engine stuff so i didnt recommend spacers. But the 5/16 spacer is a good mod. and some coils too

I just got a 2006 white G35. I just bought clear corners and trying to decide what I want to work on next?
