I know the feeling man. I've put in about $2,400 in mods over the nine months that I've own my car. I haven't even lowered it or started boosting yet either.

lol hell yeah i don't care what anyone says these cars are not cheap to mod on a moddest budget, my SC's are always breakin my bank..

on my red car i spent about 1,000 just in my interior, and that was just replacing a blacked out climate, getting white gauges and climate, buying a 3 spoke steering wheel and replacing cracked upper door trim...



i think once you boost the real $$$$ sets in..

For some reason though at the end of the day when you take a look at your work none of the $ matters.
