Should I get a front lip? If so, what kind? I'm going for the vip look.

Buy the OEM replica front lip from a vendor here, Ionic. Jose is a stand up guy and makes incredible parts for our cars. I can guarantee you won't be disappointed, he'll even paint it for you and the paint will be spot on. Costs a little more but well worth it.

If it were me I wouldn't look anywhere else.

So as you guys may know I've had an itch for more power for a little while now. Yesterday I got beat by a cobalt ss on the highway. To be fair, he accelerated first and he was definitely modded but this has got me to casually look on craigslist for an 07+ G35 because getting any additional power from a na vq35de is just not realistic unless it's boosted which takes about $10,000 for parts, labor, and tune... and that's on a good deal. Nevertheless, I found an 07 g35s that has 143k miles, clean title. I offered to trade my 06 g35 with 135k miles and the guy said to bring it by. The only thing that throws a red flag is the price. He priced it at $4800 on craigslist which leads me to assume something major is wrong with it. Kbb values it at $5800 in good condition. I'll let you guys know once I take a look at it.

What kind of power and Torque you putting down to the wheels? And yes something must be up with that car...and he's considering a down grade is another flag.

Bolted in the Whiteline endlinks (just got the front ones for now), definitely sharpens the steering response.

Power is nothing without control, right?

have you looked into the Tein Street Basis Z? There around 500$. Only deal breaker to some about em is that there non rebuildable and you need to reuse your upper mounts. Other then that I love them. I can still lower the front about an inch more and the back about a quarter of an inch.
