I've got a 2015 base with a rear deck spoiler. Splash guards are going on next week. My know-how is limited but I'm willing to learn. What next that's not too complicated and overly expensive?
TIA
Manual or auto/trans.?

Get A Good set of wide ramps,a small electric screwdriver w/10mm socket,small flat tip screwdriver & 14mm 6pt. socket (if you plan on doing your own oil changes)
Walmart has all this stuff;including 5w-30 mobil 1 synthetic oil & K&N oil filters.
i use the HP-1010,,,a tad longer to hold a bit more oil. (also used on Titan trucks & GTR's)
A good tire gauge (i use the one made by slime;large dial) i have K&N drop in air filters-but have heard the dry AFE filters perform better? Also use ethanol free premium gas,,best performance..google (Pure-gas.org)

I would start by putting about $300 down on a Fast Intentions cat back exhuast (14 week wait to make), and in the meantime of that being ready u can pay that off and get small mods. Cuz there is nothing worse than getting everything else, spending hours in the exhuast forums realizing the F.I exhuast is the best, than calling to order and getting told a 14 week wait (in the summer longer)...

Just my 2 cents

I've seen a couple of posts suggesting that I lower the car. While I appreciate the suggestion, it's my DD and NJ roads are perceptually under construction. (Plus I'm already so paranoid because to me, it seems low already!)

The GTR start button is also really easy for interior upgrade and looks great...
flat head screw driver, pop out the button, disconnect old one and insert GTR start button, and connect! **On my list to do**

exterior id say get the bluebat rear valence overlay...really changes the booty of the car. The rear valence is the outlined part of the back bumper above the exhaust tips...Our car sare white and blacking that out looks great
These are the correct air filters, right?

Nissan 370Z 2015 - aFe Power

Not sure why but the GTR start button is not "floating my boat" :-)
Thanks for the air filter suggestions. I think that is next on my list!

First thing I did to my Z was to have a clear bra installed to prevent paint chips.

I just got an email from a semi-local installer. That's on tomorrow's list for calls.

I know you're hesitant about lowering and using performance springs but it does improve the Z in the looks dept. and driving experience.
