Full Version: Gifts For Boyfriend's Car

So, my boyfriend is a car fanatic but hasn't had the chance to do much to his car.
He has a 2006 Lexus IS350 and he loves it to death. Her name is Grace. biggrin.gif
He only has had his mufflers changed & the headlights changed.
PLUS CHROME AROUND HIS LICENSE PLATE.
He doesn't want his car to have the 'racing' car look like our friends have.
He wants more of a show car look. This is what it looks like so far:



What should I get for his car?
I was thinking of a K&N intake kit, window tint and a chrome billet grill.
Any cheaper ideas and/or websites would be appreciative.

Thank you, loves. <3

Scare the hell out of him and get him a baby seat for the back.
phantompc4
haha. get him a quadruple turbo charger
Clix
Squash air fresheners! You should see if he has factory warranty before you go buy an intake.

You could always get him an ARC shift knob. Those things are some $.
jigga1boy
my type of girl friend... I would say tints for starters, not so sure about the intakes and stuff, after all it's a lexus, you want a quiet sexy, not that racer sexy like you stated. but very thoughtful! Can I share you with him? my girlfriend is too selfish to even think that deep.

how about some nice rims that he was looking into? maybe some nice floor mats. or a gas gift card!!!!!

I would love a gas card.... like money on it and I can spend it. Most of it would probably be used going over my gfs house anyway. Zoom Zoom~~~

Okayy.. well I guess I'll add more things that he already has.
He already has pillow & blanket in the trunk. Air fresheners in the front.
Car charger for his phone, iPod AND bluetooth.
Floor mats and floor covers from the Lexus dealerships.

And just yesterday there was a baby seat.
He's already been saying "DON'T YOU GET ANY IDEAS."
O____O

Thank you for the ideas, guys. Keep them coming.
P.S. I know plenty of girl-friends that buy car parts for guys, haha.

If you want to get him something for his "show car" then get him some detailing supplies:

autogeek.net has TONS of supplies. If you're going to splurge on a gift, I recommend a porter cable 7424 light swirl removal kit.

http://autogeek.net/po.html

Plus there's plenty of other detailing supplies....waxes, sealants, glazes, polishes, towels, pads, interior sprays, leather cleaner/conditioner (lexol), carpet cleaners, a good vacuum, spray guns, washes, glass, headlight, wheel cleaners/polishes...list goes on and on.

Or...if you were really going to buy all of those things mentioned above (tint $250, K&N $250, Grill $300+?) How about getting something to show off his "show car"...like a digital SLR

Canon Rebel XTi comes to mind... smile.gif

give him a present in the roomy back seat

Haahaaaaa!!! That would be hilarious! Well maybe not for him hehe.

I've heard some good ones already. I back the air freshener, high quality cleaning supplies, gift cert for a good window tint place, or one of those things you mentioned if you know exactly what he wants.

Mashimaro seat covers... heeeck no! LOL. But what an awesome girlfriend you are. Guys love stuff for their car, but most are very particular so make sure you can return/exchange.
