Show Or Go?

if you had the choice, which direction would you take?

exhaust, intake, hfc, etc. GO
or
cf hood and trunk, rims, etc. SHOW

im debating on which direction to take this car. the g is already fast as it is, the g is not an ugly car but it can improve. later on, i would probably crave for more power. so which direction would you take this car?

I'm a big fan of go myself....

I've always preferred a fast stockish looking car to a flashy car that can't back it up...

IMO...

i think the g can hold its ground. it is faster than majority of the cars out there. i would just drop it, cf hood, cf trunk, and a set of rims. body kits is a waste of money, imo. as for bolt ons, it didnt do much for the g35, so i think that would be a waste of money. only if i go fi, than that would be nice.

Yeh. I would mod the engine before exterior. Maybe some rims. Engin usually requires alot more greens(money) to show any difference to your expectations.

Just because gas prices are ridonkulous these days, I'd say show. I know we don't have many aftermarket kits out there yet, but I'm sure someone will come up with a sweet one.

The car has plenty of go, and it wasn't exactly designed for racing either.
