Calamity's G35 Progression Thread
Decided to start a thread to keep track of all the mods i've been doing to my G. Nothing special yet, but i'm working on it 
Slowly but surely! Feel free to give any input.
Day 1, 4/29/11
After endless weeks of searching, I found and purchased my 2004 TB Coupe from the dealership. Any 18 year old's dream
5/4/11
After a couple days I decided to debadge.
5/10/11
Then got some clear corners and painted my grille black.
5/20/11
I then got my windows and taillights tinted.
5/25/11
Started to want a little more power. Purchased and installed OEM z-tube, K&N drop-in, and 5/16 MD plenum spacer.
5/29/11
Soon after that, I got myself a brushed aluminum shift **** and niftyshifty boot to improve the interior a bit.
6/20/11
With all the cheap mods aside, the car sat for a few weeks. The mod bug came back and bit me hard shorty after, and I ordered some Avant Garde M310 rims, 19x9.5 +22 all around. Got some Kumho Ecsta SPT's to sit on them.

6/24/11
Had some rubbing issues, so I got my fenders lightly rolled.
8/10/11
Car came back from the shop today. Original Kuruma Z poly front bumper and fiberglass gialla installed, fresh paint on them along with the hood and fenders. Headlights also got sanded down and polished to remove all the fog.

Nice progression with your Twilight Blue coupe and good choices on the mods. Don't cha love that shift **** and boot, funny how a small mod like that can make driving way more fun. Sorry bout the accident, hope it doesn't cost you too much. Nows a good time to go with the KurumaZ bumper....

Thanks man, appreciate it. Your G has always been one of my favorites, almost exactly how I want mine to look.
And yeah the shift **** really does make a huge difference, I highly recommend one to any 5AT driver.
The damages from the accident shouldn't run me more than $1500. Needed an excuse to start my body kit anyway
Should be ordering my bumper/grill this week!

It's definitely nice to have one at such a young age, no doubt that its a chick magnet
Parents paid for half the car, I paid the rest. All the mods are out of my own pocket.
