Re: Chicago Area Upgrades
I have not done any upgrades buit I have heard that Drivers Image in Skokie is a good place to go. What were you thinking of doing for upgrades?

Re: Chicago Area Upgrades
Sorry, been awhile since I've been in the forum.
Looking at "an improved sport package" option as well as wheels for the spring. There is a 350Z shop in Streamwood I'm thinking about using for modifcations. I wanted to see of other places so thanks.

The location is right off of County Farm/Barrington Road. It's just norht of the Seville Hall. The guy seems like a good mechanic but I haven't had anythign done yet. I'll keep my eye out for your coupe, I've only seen one around so far and defintely NOT in Streamwood. Mine is the silver sedan with tint driving too fast usually. As soon as I have some work done I'll let you know and would appreciate the reciprocal.

Re: Chicago Area Upgrades
The only mod I did really wasn't local - I bought (from Tirerack.com) a set of 17 inch Mille Miglia rims with Pirelli Snow Sports for the tires because I did not want to gamble on Chicago winter's and the 18-inch summer-compound performance tires I got with the stock coupe I bought (BS 5AT loaded - Aero, Prem, Perf, NAV)
The set came already balanced and I had a Firestone in Arlington Heights install them since I am lazy and don't have the proper jacks/stands (NEVER change out your tires with the jack kit that comes with your car - you are gambling bigtime!)
They grip superbly both in snow and the dry - Blizzaks are also very good but I wanted an all-Italian setup (Italian booties for my coupe!) - I drive with confidence in virtually any weather conditions.
I have a grand total of three coupes since buying mine Dec. 6th - and one of those was at the dealer when I was there! I like the fact G35's are still relatively uncommon, it's nothing special to see a BMW, no matter what the model, but it is special to see a coupe or sedan!
