mods you love and hate
Like the title says, are there any mods that you regret getting and spending money on? What's your favorite mod that you've gotten and thought it was money well spent?

Simultaneous love/hate relationship with all mods. I love what they do for the car but I hate not having the complete piece of mind of a stock car with a warranty.

Haven't done too much yet, but I would say that the TRD catback was money well spent.
My most hated mod would have to be the small chips on the front bumper from all the highway driving I've been doing.... |

If the love vs. hate includes installation of said mods, then:
I love my Valenti LED side markers but hated installing them. Fuck those clips.

I just hit 7k miles, 6k of which are on the interstate. I had 3M paint protection film installed the second week I had the car and the front end is damn near flawless. I definitely recommend it!

Yeah, bit of regret there for me. I had the car opticoated a week after delivery, but neglected the clear bra....

I feel like it was beneficial as far as ease of cleaning and keeping that "sheen". My car is kept outside all the time and get's a lot of random crap on it. Literally.
