Talking New To CL

This is probably the wrong place to put this but, I'm new to CL and I'd like to introduce myself.

My name is Joe and i am a proud owner of a silver 2008 Lexus GS 350 Awd.

The car is stock and I'm looking to do some mods but I'm new to the whole car world because it's my first car.

First things first I'm looking for a Cold Air Intake, I have read about the K&N Typhoon, but I'm not sure whats best.

I am new to all of this so would some of you guys care to give me some pointers?

Oh and by way for any of you who are located in Staten Island,New York it would be greatly appreciated to help me out with a good and affordable place for tints.

Thanks so much!

Welcome to the team buddy. You should think about lowering the car a bit, and perhaps some nice wheels to start off with.

it's his first car and he is from NY I would get 19's just to be safe. Since, the roads here are not the best.
