Rant mode on... I guess I have enjoyed flushing money down the toilet, since basicly mods will never hold any value. But the smarter move would have been to buy someone's car after they built their dream, only to change their mind and move on.
I lost count around 2 or 3 dozen really tits FI cars in the classifieds, always at a price about what the unmodified car goes for.

Well I have no intention of getting rid of this car anytime soon so im not worried too much about the parts keeping their value. As far as the other parts needing to be replaced I was planning on replacing most of them in the future. I do appreciate your insight though.
