how to mod a G37s

I recently bought a 2009 g37s and have about 2k left over that I am willing to put in to the car and was wondering what the best mods are i can buy for 2k? I am interested in both the looks of the car and the performance.

What are the areas that seem to be lacking for you? I'd figure that out and prioritize from there. But if you have a list, post it up and we can supply more targeted feedback.

Suspension then save for wheels and tires!
I like the sport bumper you have already.

If you want to make your monster truck look like a car again as well as better handling performance, go with lowering your suspension. i.e.) Coilovers. I wouldn't suggest lowering springs as many here will say that it's too bouncy compared to coilovers.

If you want performance first, go with high flow cats/test pipes, drop-in intake filters/long tube intakes, and exhaust. You might need to spend a little more change with all three depending on the setup.

I'd put off on aesthetics until after performance mods first, but that's just me. I would rather go faster than look good first.

if looking cool means you enjoy scraping bottom, tearing up your front bumper, and driving super slow over speedbumps, potholes, dips in the road or driveway/parking lot entrances, then by all means lower away.

bonus points for unsafe "stanced" camber.

I never said anything about being "stanced". Jeez somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Dropping an inch wouldn't do that so I'm sorry if your interpretation of "lowering" meant slamming the car.

no, "stanced" was bonus points.

i had a lowered car before, and it was a PITA. When i say lowered, i mean i only did it for handling, and it was lowered the least amount i could get away with, and i still regretted it. i don't recommend it for a daily driver.

for a weekend fun car, or if you have pristine roads where you live, sure.
