2006 M35x mods help

[jwheaton]

Hey, I'm just looking for some insight on a few of the mods that can be done on this car.

Here are a list I'm planning on doing right away:1. Injen Air Intake, SP series (Burtman)2. Motordyne 1/2" Copper Iso Thermal plenum spacer (with all Iso Thermal components, Aramid Gasket and the Polarized Copper TB heater)3. Piaa Super Silicone Wiper Blades, black finish (pair) (Burtman)4. Stainless Steel Door Pillars (Burtman)5. 245/45R18 Michelin X-Ice XI2 winter tires on stock wheels

Eventually:6. Rear lip spoiler, 3M tape model from Burtman - any people using this? http://www.burtmanindustries.c...06_up or should I get the one on infiniti parts usa?7. Brakes kit, haven't landed on anything8. 20" wheels / performance summer tires9. Front & Rear Splash Guards Body-Color10. Chrome Infiniti license plate frame (cheesy, I know)11. Sirius radio kit12. Springs / coilovers that don't impact ride but lower the vehicle (and fit with the 20s)

Anything else I should be looking at?As far as 1 & 2, are those hard to do? what are the dangers? I haven't done ANY car modding before.

Thanks!

My .02, if I may, on the more major things...

If you have the money for a CAI, I would instead first spend a little more and do a Stillen near-cat exhaust, about $950.00. http://www.stillen.com. You'll immediately gain at least 2mpg to boot.

I also did the factory, dealer installed rear trunk lid spoiler. It looks great! If the dealer does it they'll stand behind it.

Brakes - I would seriously consider http://www.frozenrotors.com. Cryogenically treated and will last a loooooooong time...rotors and pads.

Finally, I went the lowering-spring route, installed and all, and had them immediately taken back off. A huge DO NOT RECOMMEND on a 35x.
