Thank you. Sounds good, I should have some up tomorrow afternoon. Right now the car is pretty well equipped to my liking (Injen full exhaust, kinetix intake manifold, aem intake, Tien coilovers, brembo brakes, Nismo front bumper) But the door pulls have a dry carbon fiber overlay so I think i want to match the dash around the stereo the same way. Do you have any suggestions for other modifications possibly?

Welcome to the boards! , looks like you're off to a good start with the mods. Definitely, needs some attention in the washing/waxing department as well as getting that engine bay cleaned up. Btw, congrats on the purchase!!

Thanks guys!
As far as future mods go, I don't really have anything in mind. I do have a custom grill that i need to install but nothing is coming to mind :/ do you guys have any suggestions?

Welcome and congrats! Keep it as clean as it is now (mods wise) and you'll be in good shape.

What are you wanting from the G? Fire breathing monster, track star, show queen, something else entirely? That'll help us help you

Isn't that Kinetix manifold supposed to only be used with forced injection??

Correct me if I am wrong...

I've heard that people have actually lost power with the kinetix manifold on a turbo or supercharged car, but NA there were some gains. The cosworth intake manifold saw gains on turboed and supercharged cars. I could be wrong as well though.
