I've been on the forum for some time now and thought I should start one of these. I don't have a whole lot of mod's yet, but I thought it was worth sharing the progress.

- 2009 Magnetic Black Coupe with Touring Package
- 6-Speed Manual Trans.
- Black Leather Interior

Current Appearance Modifications:
- OEM front chin spoiler
- OEM rear spoiler
- Wider tires for OEM 18's (Advan Sport 275/40/18 Back & 245/45/18 Front)

- Quaife Differential

I plan on keeping the Z for a while, so I'm really in no hurry to buy everything possible. Not to mention, parts can be pricey and I have limited funds I can dedicate to the car. Also, it takes the fun out of modding when your car is "done."

Here are some older images I'm sure most have seen already. I will update periodically with newer pictures when I get a chance.
