No I am not selling the mods I have on now. I am going to sit back and enjoy for now. I am sure I will be looking to put more mods on in the future.....

Like an exhaust and wider wheels (19-inch coupe, if I can find a set).

Sorry guys-I think I can never return back to stock now, love the car's handling and preformance.

You can never stop. It's only a temporary refrain from acting on your hardwired modding impulses.

I even thought about parting out, but I love how it looks too much

If you only knew how much I have been thinking about de-modding...also want a house but convince myself that the mods are already there and paid for.

I know that my next car will have all FACTORY AFTERMARKET PARTS INSTALLED BY THE DEALER! Mods has givin me joy and also pain.
I've had almost a problem with every mod I ve put on my car. As much as I love the way the car turned out, I would not have gone back and don it again. Thier were nights I lost sleep thinking about the problems that accure when you run into trouble with fatermarket parts. Cars today are way to sensitive to foriegn aftermarket parts. Trying to get the shake out of my rims, afterwards ... done! and never again... unless... Im crazy paid with $ and its done by only using the top quality proformance parts and accessories.
GOOD LUCK JIMMY ... ENJOY

You guys act like you're going to stop modding. Quit lying to yourself.

Good luck on starting a family. You'll be back..

Amen!

This is what I've been saying lately, yet I can't stop modding.

The only thing that will stop me from modding is to get a car that is so unbeliveably expensive that I would be afraid to do anything to it myself.

What is this "Quitting" nonsense?

Well, goodluck with what ever decision you take. Priorities first. Too bad modding is a priority for me

Do it! I didn't own my G until I had my 1st child, whom is now 4 yrs. old and with an aftermarket exhaust, it's funny to hear your child say "Dada - your car sounds like a race car" when I step on it a bit with him in the car. Now I have a 20 month old daughter....it's only a matter of time before she starts complimenting the ride!
