Musings of a new (to me) Z owner.

Had the windows tinted yesterday. Today I'm dropping her at a wheel refinishing shop to correct curb rash on the two rear rims. After that, there are some chips in the hood I need to address. May try to do my best on those my self before paying a pro to fix.

As far as mods go, I've got some stuff in mind but it'll come down to when I'm ready to throw down the cash. Wife will go crazy if I throw down $2k on upgrades after just getting the car, so I think I'll be driving stock for the near future. I would like to do CBE and intake, maybe the whole exhaust exit system of headers and high flow cats as well. Then that leads to a tune and so far in my initial research I have yet to find a shop local that can do that or that comes recommended. Guess when it comes down to that time I can travel a bit to get it done but would rather not should I need issues resolved.

Might do the CBE though sooner than later. Since it's my dd I don't want some crazy obnoxious sounding system. So far in my research I've liked the Invidia Gemini system as well as the Stillin. I know they are just a slight uptick from stock in sound, but that's basically what I'm looking for and I know once the other pieces are in place more sound will come out.

For now, cosmetics are on tap. Need her looking her best.
