I've been posting for a few weeks, but never got around to posting my car.

Nothing too crazy, just a bone stock, 1 owner 2007 coupe. I bought it with ~93,500 miles just a month or so ago.

So far, my mods are minimal. I don't have any pictures, but I've installed a Z-tube and a set of JDM side markers w/ the bumps. I also replaced the anemic trunk bulb and license plate lights with Diode Dynamics warm white bulbs. I didn't plan on replacing the license plate lights, but I somehow managed to order warm white instead of amber for the side markers, so I went ahead and threw them on there. I also had to replace the OEM 3rd brake light with a new board from ledmarkers.com.

Plans include:
350Z "Anniversary" wheels (purchased)
35% Tint
Fast Intentions Traditional Cat Back (factory muffler piping has some rust issues)
Paint factory calipers and rotors (satin silver, just rust prevention)
Full sound system overhaul

I haven't had a chance to take any decent pictures of my own, so here are the dealer pictures.

How did your transaction with ledmarkers.com go? I thought they went out of business...

Nice ride man. One owner vehicles are always a peace of mind and looks like you got a clean slate too start out with. Which is always nice. Said it before and I'll say it again, your coupe looks good without the iron board on back. Enjoi

To be clear, I actually bought the unit from their eBay store since it was the easiest way to go. They were very helpful, shipping was free and quick, and the light works perfectly so far.

Thanks. I was a little nervous about buying a car out of Wisconsin, but the under carriage is very clean with the exception of some exhaust rust. The car was meticulously maintained, at least according to the CarFax.

I'm thinking it may have been a guy's wife's car since the seat doesn't have the tear you see so often in these cars. The radio was even replaced a few thousand miles before I bought it, so I shouldn't have to worry about that common problem for a while either.

It does need a new driver's window motor since it's doing the auto roll down crap that is rampant on Nissans.

I hate the pre-06 spoiler for these cars, but I really thought I wanted the spoiler if I got an 06-07. Now owning the car for a few weeks, I have no interest in having the spoiler.
