I've been keeping a spreadsheet that I try to avoid looking at ... Including my incoming rims $11k after one year. I told myself I would stop but now I'm eyeing headers

I just did a rough tally for all the "extras" I've spent on the car, including things that may not be considered as "mods", more like accessories, such as weathertech floor mats and truck mat and clear bra etc...

Total came to $6300. ...And my car still looks completely stock.

I have just realized that I've done at least one aftermarket mod to every car I've owned over the 17 years I've been driving. It used to be exclusively stereo stuff, but I've always done something.

I think $8k is the most I've ever spent though, and that included an aftermarket turbo setup for an S2000 I had. I've never crossed in to 5 figures.

Any of the four figure guys have any regrets about spending that much on their F?
