By function you mean flashing them at someone you just cut off?

Add another $900 to that and have the car wrapped on the front end and rocker panels with Ventureshield Ultra, or Xpel, or a similar product by a skilled person.

You will thank me in a few years if you do it.

Just a few ideas for the Z:
-Fairlady Z emblem
-Vinyl for fang or rear valance
-Carpet trunk mat or metal z emblem floor mats
-Quality wax/polish products
-1 fill up of premium unleaded

For a little more:
-wheel spacers
-used long tube CAI ( sell the drop in's)
-Evo-R CF door pillars
-Evo-R fang cover

Other ideas:
-lap dances at a strip club
-5 cases of cheap beer
-100 items off the dollar menu
-bb gun? Although you might shoot your eye out

I vote for rear fog light or spacers.
Also, two tanks of gas and a weekend of driving somewhere.

ummm been married for a while... $100 will not get much of anything other than flowers... flowers are definitely nice, but we just passed v-day a few weeks ago...

when you say nice for the wife wat do you mean? cause my wife loves handbags and those things are not cheap at all... take her out for dinner? 100 will net you a decent meal but a nice dinner enough for her to buy a 1500 exhaust? hahahahaahahahahahahha. hahhaahahhaa.... hahahaBLAHHAHAHAHAAHA!!!! jk

Jeez

Back when I used to date, $100 got me a LONG! ways. Most of the women I went for cared more about things I put some thought into or made than things I bought or paid to have done (Dinner at a resturant,etc.).

I would buy a bottle of decent wine (decent to me is a good vintage in the $20-30 range, meaning not Yellowtail crap from Wal-Mart, lol) some candles, and cook supper and take her to a park and lay it all out for a midnight dinner if the weather was nice, and stuff like that. It cost all of $60 or so and a few hours of my time. Knew of a nice park where no druggies/hobos went, and was left unlocked/patrolled at night at the time.

Meant more, spent less. The women loved it.

Update;

Decided to go with the rear fog light, I would of went with the intake tubes
if they weren't on backorder and chose against the "cheap Y pipe" because
of CBE plans really soon..

But thanks guys for all the excellent suggestions...

Take that hundred dollar estimate, square it and then take the inverse hyperbolic cotangent, then apply the quadratic formula, derive it and take the sum as n goes to X and, yeah, I missed it too.

rockstar- kinda like my situation. my wife didnt even know i had a Z for a while. my garage (cave) is like my bedroom and she doesn't go in there as much as i dont go into her study's closet with her collection of computer and networking stuff.

i dont think she knows i have a new wheel set in there either... and all sorts of new tools.

Buy some Motul RBF600 brake fluid for a flush, 6 quarts of oil and a Nissan oil filter.
