clavinova Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 So my girlfriend has given me £1,000 to spend on my 350Z 08 plate as a birthday prezzie. Now I have read most of the posts on this forum and could spend that amount 10 times over - but I have to be realistic So simple question - you have £1000 on styling - where would you spend it ? For info car is black with GT pack and baseball interior. Tks all Clav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srobrien Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Spend the money on a weeks holiday or something, don't start modding, first its one thing then the other until you have spent a bucket load of cash on mods that you will never get your cash back on, that you will either have to sell with the car for no extra or strip down and sell for peanuts when you come to sell her.....or you could put the cash towards a decent set of rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 er.....the OP said for styling...... So maybe give him so ideas for spoilers/liips/skirts..... LED lighting is styling, in a round about way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 er.....the OP said for styling...... So maybe give him so ideas for spoilers/liips/skirts..... LED lighting is styling, in a round about way? Aye, but majority of other suggestions ain't. Whilst I concure Id rather spend the cash on remap etc, the majority responses dont look like they read the original request by the OP.

clavinova Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 Guys - excellent suggestions really - thanks. Only problem now is that I need at least £2000 as I really like the BOSE upgrade suggestion - can't push my luck with the other half on spending more unfortunatley. That being said - I have to say that rim's seem to be the best bet - I like the ones in the photos in the post above - where did you get them from? Thanks again guys - much appreciated.

Clav If you mean me, then they are Volk SF Challenge in 19", but you'd have to increase your budget quite a bit for them. Got them from a trader that has sadly closed shop.

Walbertonio Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Think CS has some interesting wheels, Rarerims and Tarmac too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 often has used wheels which wouldn't break the bank. CS, Rarerims, Tarmac and even Husky I think..... They will all do wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
