I will probably end up waiting until I'm out of warranty before I start modding things. My luck has historically been shite, so I know that as soon as I start doing things, something will go wrong and i'll end up going down a certain creek without a paddle.

That being the case, once I do start spending money, it'll mostly be cosmetic stuff to start. Wheels/tires, exhaust, tint, antenna, lowering springs, etc. Eventually I'll probably end up doing a tune, headers, etc, etc.

It's crazy what a year will do to you.

Between my original post and now, I've done:

Smoked JDM side markers - $70
wheels/tires/springs (MSR Style 045 18x8, Toyo Extensa HP 225/40/18, TuningPro lowering springs) - $700
30/15 ceramic tint - $275
Vishnu stage 1 tune - $300
Cosworth drop in filter - $40
SuperTek intake tube - $120
Smoked Spyder LED tails - $380
Works Exhale Axleback - $380

Grand total, not counting shipping - $2265.

I really don't know how some of you guys do it. It amazes me to see how much money some people are able to spend on the car so quickly.... I can only dream

meeskee2 01-28-2014 09:41 AM

I haven't really thought about it and I'm probably better off for that. I haven't really done much, YET.

Front plate mount
LED fogs, dome, door, and license plate lights
RA flaps
Winter set (wheels and tires)

The only things I have planned for right now:
Summer tires (not sure what kind yet)
Cat back exhaust (either Nameless or Invidia)
