Default What Aftermarket parts to buy the CR-Z for Xmas?

The wife is asking me what I want for the CR-Z.

All my mods have been intended to just improve on the stock look and performance and keeping it viable and comfortable as a DD.

Wondering what I should ask Mrs. Claus for? (note: asking Mrs. Claus doesn't mean she is paying for it, but allowing me to pay for it = under 500.00)



For those who may not know what my current Z looks like..

What should be next? Current mods are in my signature. Still looking to just enhance the stock look/performance. I've been kind of looking at light smoke film for the HID lights and rears and getting some interior leds. What else? Watcha think? Where to go from here?

Axle-back or midpipe depending on what you think would compliment your downpipe the most, unless you find a cheap enough full cat-back exhaust.

Or you can get ceramic brake pads .

Yea, additional exhaust enhancements are on the list..



But after the P2R and the Typhoon, She seems to be really loud (or at least in my mind/ears). Gotta find a large parking lot or side street and have someone else drive it while I listen..

I just bought a bunch of engine bay stuff for my Z and reflectors for the diffuser.

List coming from Basis:
NRG hood damper (Carbon Fiber)
PWJDM battery tie down (Blue)
PWJDM Oil Cap (Blue)
Blue bolts
Spoon Radiator cap
And something else I think that I have forgotten.

From Honda:
Diffuser reflectors

I was just thinking about posting a "gifts for car guys/girls" thread. Anywy, here's a couple of simple ideas - in no particular order.
  • Skunk2 short shifter (not gonna work with your CVT)
  • A good torque wrench
  • Plasti-dip!
  • Carbon fiber sheet
  • LED interior lights
  • Weathertech floor mats
  • Die cast CR-Z model
  • Helm Manual
  • Brake caliper paint
  • Bad azz long mag-lite
  • Handheld vac
  • Detailing supplies
  • Driving school
