Unless you are installing yourself, hell to the no.

i was gonna get my jdm sidemarkers painted black in the inside ( pretty sure i'd be the first one with that mod ) and i swear to you not they wanted 225$ just for that... but only 190$ to paint my side mirrors and the plastic piece holding it LOL....

i have no idea what i want to do.... and im getting sick of that stupid white sidemarker ruining my car.

and im deff not running those ebay sidemarkers, complete crap.

Or buy a dang bumper that deletes the marker lights. I saw one of those on outcast website as well

U do kno they probably get their lights from the same ebay supplier right? This I am pretty sure. Outcast does not make everything

Is there anything else I should do for my G without getting into FI or anything too involved? Its my DD but I have been doing a few basic things to help her breathe and sound better. Besides switching up my wheels I will be calling it quits soon and focusing on the weekend project.

04 g35 auto-tragic coupe

-stillen intake
-hks exhaust w/magnaflow cross over mid pipe
-motordyne art pipes
-motordyne 5/16th iso spacer w/TB copper heater

The art pipes & exhaust is getting put on Tuesday. I would have done it myself but I want to have that mid pipe replaced with the magnaflow so there is no drone & got a great deal at a local shop to have it put on & finished up. The iso kit was ordered today so that will be put on shortly after the exhaust.

I dont plan on doing headers because the gains are not worth it and it sounds like a huge pita to install them. Anything else I should consider?

I do have plans to pick up the transgo shifter kit & I have paddle shifters to install still. Might try & get those done this weekend in prep for the transgo kit in a few weeks.

Thanks!

i would look into sway bars ( get hotchiks ) transgo shift kit, engine grounding wire kit ( helps make engine bay a lil better and supposedly better shift's ) and i love how the injen sp cold air intake sounds, idc if it has gains.

if you have the money, look into a carbon fiber driveshaft.

then after you get all of those bolt on's and dont have anything else to do, then you get a uprev tune / dyno the car to get another 20+ whp and it'll run alot better. i was quoted around 700$ to dyno and uprev my car without the cable , or 925 w/ cable.

or seymore will sell you the uprev w/ everything and a custom tune.

im automatic also.

The quicker shifting is marketing bologna. You will be needing a tune soon for all these sir modifications... Very nice setup up indeed! If you go transgo you have to get a tune to make it worth it is what I mean. Otherwise ECU retards shifting to create smoothness.
