quit??? what do you mean quit?

 

i don't understand, why would anyone want to stop

 

We wouldn't... it was kind of a rhetorical question. That day (of the original post) I was pondering how much I intend to spend with all the planned mods and realizing so many others doing the same thing... I just though wow! Lots of $$$$ making our babies hummm (or Roar as the case may be)!!! And of course it's worth it!!!

 

lets seee.. ive spent 8 grand on wheels and tires.. about 5 grand total on body parts and labor..1400 on audio upgrades..about 2 grand on performance and im about to drop another 3 grand on more performance.. thats a total of about 20,000 ohh my god.. i think ill stop there till i decide to do F/I... this is my hobby and i love it.. i take pride in having a fine tuned machine that looks good too.. i try to be competitive in all departments of mods.. thats what kills me! the problem with me is i cannot talk myself out of buying ****.. i some how justify that i need it.. it dosnt hurt my pockets or anything i just cringe when i actually sit down and think about how much ive spent..haha its all worth it tho when you see the look on peoples faces and you know you have a hot *** car!

 

ohh and it def helps if you can install yourself i saved alot! i wish i knew how to do body work/paint.. i really do nv g352nv in that area! hes the man!

 

Wow!!! There's a good example! Your car must be HOT man! I hear ya about "all departments" it can get crazy trying to keep upgrades in performance, audio, and interior/exterior all in line. Fortunately I'm wanting to keep mine relatively stealth so I'm not in too deep with exterior mods. I do need to upgrade the speakers and add an amp though. Not going too outrageous with audio - focusing on performance. I doubt I'll ever spend 20K... never say never though!

 

When I first started reading this site and my350z I would see guys posting that they have spent $10K, $20K, $30K, etc. and I would be like WHOA! THIS PEOPLE ARE F'ING NUTS! Now 15 months later I am up to $31,427 in mods.
