i need a good but cheap body kit
If you have a small budget just get an OEM lip and some H or S tech springs
by getting a lip you only gonna have to paint a lip.
And it looks quite nice with a drop and rims.
Kit you pant the entire thing and that's at least $500 if not more

Not only do you have to buy the kit, you have to paint, install, and what happens if you get into a minor fender bender? Will you have money to repair it or will be you rollin' around a busted up KS kit unable to fix it?
Just my opinion.... but hey, if you're in a hurry to get the kit... it's all you!
Good luck and enjoy your G!
this is all coming out of my work money .on avg i get 500 a month if i work evryday i could easily make 700+ a month dont kno if its enough but over time im guessing itll be good? how much would a imp wing cost with the lip + installation? man this aint cheap stuff..

Yeah, do some research for sure before you do anything. When I was your age, 20, I had an old @ss hand me down Ford Fairmont station wagon (you probably don't know what that is), so I didn't have any worries on body kits and modding.
I was too poor cuz all my money when to school, apartment, school, and more school. I was so poor... sometimes I would skip dinners and close my eyes, and have a sleep sandwich.
Mmmmm... those were the good ol days.
Then I moved up to a old Subaru station wagon and honda civic for 10 more years.... so have fun, but play it smart.

If your new to the car modding thing, DONT drop your car 3 inches like the other person said ealier in the thread. Klumzyee's replica kits are the best you will get for what your willing to spend and from what ive seen and heard they are great quality. For a drop, go with Tein S-Techs. Do some searching also.

where can i find Klumyzees products?
ok so i got my Infiniti G35 Coupe SP Racing Grill and i need to install it.. i tried to look at the DIY thing but my grill wont come off. i took off all the OEM screw things on the top .. but i dont get the pinching part exactly what am i supposed to be pinching? lol im so REATAREDDDED
i feel bad saying this man, but it sounds like a body kit is not right for you. if you're pulling in $700/month and still need to make car payments there's almost no way you can afford all that is entailed. the costs for modifying our cars can easily start to spiral out of control once you start.
like a bunch of folks said above, you should get aftermarket wheels and a drop before the body kit. here's the minimum that you're looking at:
Wheels: $1,500-$2,000 for cast wheels & mid-range tires.
Drop: $150 for springs + at least $150 to install + $100 for an alignment
Camber Correction: $169 for parts + at least $100 to install + $100 for an alignment (assuming you get the camber kit later on...which is what usually happens because ppl don't want to believe they need it).
Body Kit: at least $600 for a replica kit + at least $500 for paint & install.
...do you see where this is going?

for right now i got some small mods: new grill, eyelids, . getting spacers and tires very soon.
oh and whats a chamber correction? if you dont mind me askin
when you lower your car your wheels will lean inward towards the center of the car - this angle is called camber. anyway, excess camber (among other things) will cause your tires to wear out much quicker. a camber kit will allow you to set the camber back to factory specifications.
also, the cost above for camber correction is only for the rear kit. a front cost will run you at least $375 plus at least $150 to install.
