Default Need Mod Ideas

So far I have done a few modifications, and I'm wanting to do something else but I'm not quite sure what I want to do !! (As crazy as that sounds).

So far I have:

Put in NavTool
Backup Cam
Upgraded stock Bose system with JL system and Woofer
Plasti Dipped the whole car and wheels (well, this is the only thing I had a shop do)

I have looked at over 50 pages in the mods sections on the forum, but nothing has really grabbed me as a "must do"

Not worried about switching lighting over to LED's etc...

I know this may seem like a lame post, but I love doing mod's but just can't find anything that "wow's" me.

I'm not a hands on guy when it comes to engine or under the car, so electrical and interior/exterior mods are what it boils down to.

HELP ME FOLKS !!! I need to tinker....

I love my lit kick plates, a nice mod for sure. Also the GTR start button. I don't even know how I found my stock start button every day, it was just so... Not red.

I personally really like the Swift springs. Gives a nice appearance to the car. I know this is in interior/exterior, so im not sure if this is the type of mod that youre looking for, but its a good one!

Not real sure what trim you have but you could always have your brake calipers powder coated as well.

Catback, springs and sways. Looks a little better, sounds a little better, handles a whole lot better.

I wouldn't consider this a 'mod' as you can get it from the factory directly installed on your car.

If you changed the color of the Z, then yes maybe it can be considered a mod.

I had my Stillen intakes, sways and exhaust as a dealer installed accessory before I even picked up the car. Not mods either then? No Z comes from the factory with the lit plates, it's dealer installed. I'm gonna count that one.

I was under the impression the illuminated kick plates were factory installed in Japan and not dealer installed since that's what it says on the Nissan website.
