Buy a set of decals/stickers and put them all over your car.

I hear they add 50+ hp!

You can also go with a 100-shot NOS kit

For $2000 l would get a 5\16 plenum spacer and a osiris tune! That would run about $900. And get an exh system. That will give you your best bang for your bucks! Body parts and rims no increase in performance! That you can get after you gain the horse power! You can get a 350z cai for $100. The question is do you want performance or looks first! Hope l cleared some things up for you!

At almost 300hp at the crank, I think the G35 is powerful enough and has decent torque already. Adding 5-20hp is not worth it, at least to me.

If I did want more power, I would want 30-50hp or more to be able to compete with the M3 of the same year. But I think trying to get those gains will cost more than $2k.

I am thinking that maybe i am going to work on external looks first...
My headlights are fogged out, and i've had someone try to clean up, but still don't look wonderful...

Also, the front bumper is nicked up, and needs some work. I kind of thought about complete repaint, but a good paint job is not in price range right now....

There is alot of front ends for the coupe. The sedan is a different story. The mods l will do this spring is the motordyne 5\16 spacer and the tune for $500. With the tune you get 3 settings. A performance tune economy and valet mode. The cool thing is it all works off of the speed control buttons. They also give any updates for free! I already have my exh system and cai.Body mods l will get the kurookie. I need the central opening to cool my transfer case on awd. Its $350 but made of fiberglass. Good thing the roads in Ga are very nice! Good luck with your mods! I know it will look good when you are done!

Try plastix on your headlights. They dont look that fogged up. I use it on my 05. Keeps them clear and looking new!

Any increase that is less than 10% improvement shows no reliable increase in power, and therefore is probably not worth 1K. Tune will be good if you go to a tuner and have it tuned.
