I put the $3k-3.9k bracket, but in further thinking, I'm probably actually past that. Favorite mod? The Cooling Plate, of course. It's the only mod I've done that didn't cost me money.

If i had a turbo, of course that would be my favorite mod, but as for now, i'd say Kaminari kit or the Lambo Doors.

I've probably spent about $300, I don't have the money to buy better mods.

I think i've spent over $4k!

The most expensive piece was my DVD Touchscreen Head Unit, which is also my favorite mod.. Including the sound system I installed.
