What do you estimate you've spent in mods for your ISF?
This thread could be interesting, or it could get depressing, lol. What have you spent on mods (not routine maintenance parts, but aftermarket stuff) on your ISF? Post up how long you've had the car to add some perspective.
1 year- approx $3500

I spent so far roughly $7,500 in mods and owned the F for a little over a year. A good chunk of that is from the wheels, headers, and other misc cosmetics. A small but decent chunk of the money spent actually went to shipping stuff to Guam. USPS to include any other company UPS/FedEx rapes us in shipping fees. **** sucks

. Btw I'm turning 26 in a few months, I think buying a depreciating asset at the age of 23 (the F) wasn't so smart (no regrets though). I need to invest in appreciating assets moving forward. Can't be throwing money into the car right now

2 yrs= 11K+. Not including installation on a couple things. Also includes both sets of rims I own.
I also still need to add headers and a sway bar to the car. I think I'm done once I add those. Thanks for making this thread and have me calculate how dumb I am haha

If my rents bought me the car, I wouldn't mind spending thousands of dollars on mods .

, money is just an external like almost everything is nowadays, especially in today's capitalist society 
Not going to go into some existentialist spiel though hehe...
Never regret...unless you bought a BMW

In about 15 months of ownership:
Used Joe Z exhaust: ~$1400
Used HPS intake pipe: $100
Garax bulbs, HIDs for fog lights, various LED fixtures, etc: ~$200
Tint: ~$150
TRD radiator cap: $20
2 cans of plastidip: $14
2 rolls of trim blackout tape: ~$12
Baking headlights to black them out: blood, sweat, and tears
Total: about $1896
That's not including all the shipping costs, polishes and waxes, new set of Michelin Pilot A/S, and other random things, which would probably put me over $4000. And I'm not close to where I'm at with the car unfortunately...
