Need help with what to do

Im bringing my 2012 limited edition G37xS to get a few things don to it. problem is i can only do so much at a time (cuz i dont have alot of extra cash) so can you guys just rank these things in order of necessity...

i ordered illuminated kickplates...250 plus 1 hour install (125)
splash guards...140 plus 1 hr install 125
illuminated accent lighting (under dash)...110...1 hour install 125
GTR replacement ignition button...40..1 hour install 125

i can spend about 600-700

ps all those prices dont include tax

im not installing any of these items myself cuz id rather they mes up and replace it rather than i **** up my wiring or something happens and i void my warranty

I know you stated you didn't want to do these yourself, but you also stated you're low on funds. Just search the DIY forums and you should be able to find enough help for most of those projects. You've got $500 in labor on those four items, that's a nice savings if you can just take a few hours on a weekend. The DIY stuff is a good way to know more about your car and the stuff you listed shouldn't be too tough.

If your dead set against any DIY then probably the splash guards first since it'll keep potential debris from nicking the sides of our very chip-vulnerable paint.

I'll second the motion of DIY even though you talk against it. The things you mentioned are very very basic and I could never see spending that kind of money for labor. You'll be surprised how easy they were once you do it. If your really that worried about it, find a friend with a little knowledge that will assist. Didn't see your location, but you could always find a local forum member that I'm sure would be either free help or half the cost.

I can understand paying for labor on the illuminated door sills and the accent lighting, but the ignition button and splash guards are the easiest to install yourself. Plus I will never ever ever justify paying $40 for a gtr button and $125 on installation. Where are you located maybe we could find you some helP
