How much $$ have you put in to your FR-S/BRZ?
Need some of you guys to make be feel better as i added up how much i have put it to it on mods so far. Not counting maintence items or window tint which is a requirement lol.
I'm at roughly $3k with the majority in wheels, tires, and reflash. I did recoup about $600 for my factory wheels and tires so thats a little better so i guess i'm at $2400. Wheels and tires $1100 springs and camber bolts $200 Perrin pulley and antenna $100 Cosworth filter $50 Visconti flash $775 Motiv Test Pipe $250 HID kit $130 DRL bulbs $20 clear corners $100 assorted led bulbs and silverstar bulbs $50 JBL MSBassPro SQ powered subwoofer $200 H Audio Trinity 3" speakers for dash $120 |

Sorry not trying to make a competition out of it i know some or your coilovers alone are almost as much as what i've spent. I know i'm on the lower end of lots of your builds i'm very happy with my car and build just curious as to what other people are spending you don't have to break it down like i did. It didn't seem that bad until i started adding it all up lol.

$100.00 on a shift knob, $350.00 ahead of time for Rock's hardbody guard, $120.00 ahead of time for tint, $300.00 for a head unit, and payed the paint guy $250.00 to paint my brakes...and my car hasn't even come in yet. I just have everything set in motion so I can get my work done as soon as possible. No flashing or engine mods until after the 1k break-in!

Man I've been dying to know how that looks (I'm probably going to do the exact same thing), so can you post a picture of how the car looks on steel rims? Did you go with some 16's so you can run more sidewall?

I think I'm at $92
Mudflaps, backup light overlay, license plate frame and tiny convex mirrors. Although I guess you can add another $300 for HPDE

This is a question I never try to figure out and would never post. The wife doesn't seem to notice the money when it is a little here and there but when it is all added up......well.
