I'm in the annapolis/baltimore area in maryland.

3m black tint, custom cardboard sunroof glass, AEM cold air intake with bypass valve, stromung or borla exhaust

[ProZach626]

I painted my brake kalipers and got a light 35% tint all the way around. I like it not too dark, not too light.

Listen, the cold air intake flooding thing is more or less a myth. It will not suck up water in rain. Now if you are driving through puddles that are over a foot deep you do run the risk of sucking up water, but you should know better than driving through something like that for fear of ruining something else. So in all just stay away from New Orleans for a while and you should be fine with a CAI.

i never heard anything about sucking up water in rain, just realize that sucking water through your intake is bad, and a CAI puts it closer to the ground. that bypass attachment thingy will prevent any chance of that though. AEM is quality if you got the money for it, otherwise if your getting a shorty intake, dont spend over 100$ on it. go out and get a 92-95 civic intake, chop it in half, put the MAFS on the end and a quality filter(like apex'i power intake or JWT popcharger).

ROFL.......cardboard sunroof was a joke, installing a sunroof is expesnive, its like 700 bucks or something, but you could give it a shot

Nah, this one place quoted me 280 something for the type that slides out of the vehicle, 360 something for the type that slides inside the roof.
So what I dont get is how nissans going to let me void my warranty because they will not install items aftermarket. I say let me like they're not goign to make more bling, stupid money driven fuckers. like this sheehy place is telling me that if i wanted a sunroof i should have purchased a car that had one, assholes. i'm like, ok, my parents got a jeep, picked theirs out, wnted a sunroof, they kept it a week took it back to be installed, it was back in three days, same car, with a sunroof. wtf? are these MEN lying to me 'cause i'm a chick? or does nissan not do that shit. I'm sure honda would have. i'm almost regretting this purchase. maybe i should have held out for my volvo S70!

So an AEM cold air intake with a 'bypass' or somethin' . get myself some dark dark tint i'll have this thing fancied in no time

thanks guys!
