Z owner round two

Hi everyone! Forum noob here. I'm a proud owner of a 2013 brilliant silver 370z base model coupe with manual transmission. I bought the car on Memorial Day 2019, so I recently celebrated my one year anniversary with the car. It had 35k miles when I bought it, and it has close to 45k on it now. I do a lot of highway driving.

My first car was a 1993 300ZX in sapphire blue and manual trans I bought in high school. That car was a beaut. Sadly she got totaled (with someone else driving, I wont get into the details). Hence the title, this is my second time owning a Z.

Current mods on the car aren't much. Previous owner made a few small changes: s-tune rear spoiler, J2 engineering axleback exhaust, and a painted black front lip (a tasteful change I like a lot). I haven't done much to the car: nismo v2 rays wheels and 3M gloss black vinyl on the roof & diffuser.

Mod list on the horizon is a little more exciting. Short term mods (most likely this summer): drilled and slotted rotors, swift spec-R springs, 5mm wheel spacers, fast intentions catback exhaust, and possible high flow cats. Long term mods (most likely in 2021): nismo front bumper and side skirt conversion (with trim painted black), Z1 cold air intake, and an aftermarket oil cooler. (I also like the look of the amuse rear bumper ;) .)

Car is in really good shape. Only downside is peeling paint on the front bumper. I touched up the holes to stop them from spreading but it still looks like ****. I don't see a way to fix the problem except to repaint or get a new bumper. Hence the reason I'm looking at the nismo front conversion.

I do most of the mechanic work and maintenance myself save for a tranny drop or timing belt replacement.

I'm super glad to be here!. I'll include a couple pictures of the Z :).
