Welcome, are you located in South Florida?
Wow bone stock G35, so many things you can do!
You have to decide if you want to focus on changing the looks or performance first.
Debadging the back, adding an used Z Tube, installing a Plenum Spacer (a couple of hundred bucks), Painting the grill/rear diffuser, Clear corners are all cheap/easy intro things that will start you off the right way.
Using the SEARCH feature will also help you, and stop you from being flamed by asking the same questions that new owners usually have.
Congrats on the new (to you ) car, I'm sure you'll love it.

Well like previously mentioned... you first need to pick which route to take... Performance or Looks? With some MODs you can achieve both at the same time. For example I went strictly Performance at first and later on found MODs that technically achieve both when done properly like https://g35driver.com/forums/sfl-g-c...cent-mods.html (Suspension and Wheels)
Once you decide on which to work on then the next question is... example
If Looks:
Simple Clean Look: MODs that are just small touches to enhance the look of an already nice ride. (De-badge, Clear Corners, Tints, Lights, Diffusers, Painting or changing the Grill, Lip Kit... ect)
or
Bring on the MODs: You basically want to change the complete appearance of the ride to reflect either an aggressive look or a super clean look. Obviously this include complete Body Kits or Mix and Matching Front/Rear Bumpers, Side Skirts Trunk Lid...ect
If Performance MODs:
Naturally Aspirated (NA) (Cold Air Intakes, Ztube/K&N Combo, Plenum Spacer, Hi-Flo Cats, Resonated or Non-Res Test Pipes, Under Drive Pulleys, Headers, Exhaust, Valve Springs, Cams, ECU MODs Like Osiris or Piggy Backs Like Utec... ect)
or
Forced Induction (FI) (Turbos, Super Charger or NOS)
If you want to save a crap load of money in the future... do your research and really decide between NA or FI because NA MODs for the most part will not transfer over to FI. I made this mistake already as I now plan to go FI. We can thank APSMike for this recent change of heart...LOL

First of all I would like to say thanks to you all for the welcome!!!!
Second Drako your recent monds look Sick !!!!!!
Its Like I'm embarrassed to even post pic's from now on lol!
Looks like I have some real thinking to do/ because I would like to drop in a twin turbo (in the future) but at the same time I would like a nice looking ride (like Drako ) but I didn't know that most of the modes I wanted would not work with a Turbo Smh!
True rookie mistake =)
With that being said The 1st thing at had will be performance, but I am reconsidering the turbo I was doing the math and it looks like its gonna cost me 5k+ which is not in my budget I'm looking to spend the max of $2,500 - $3,500 next month or Feb, (income tax lol)
but I was wondering do u run threw tires quicker after u lower it? b/c I dont want to run into that issue
