I've spent about $1500-$1700 since the wheels were so expensive. I got the money by working a TON of overtime.

The wheels are definitely my favorite mod.

just to update, i'm now up to $5100 plus another 50 or so for miscellaneous crap that I broke and had to get at the dealer, wiring for the interior lighting, etc etc etc.

I swear, this is an addiction.

Only at about $300 here. However, I got a promotion a month or so ago with a big pay increase. Once I get some bills paid down, I will start dumping a lot more money into my car.

you don't know how we spend that much? well.... money gets added to the debit card, you go online, put the thing you want in the shopping cart, and then check out. Simple!

i've spent a little more than $2k. A big chunk of that was from the wheels and tires, which also happen to be my fav mod.

Get 2 low interest credit cards or a bunch of sponsors (helps if dad owns a rim shop). I spent $15k on my last car and am up to $3k on my TC. Waiting to order a Dezod turbo and exhaust for Xmas making a total of $8k on the TC. Most of us are not "connected" to sponsors so go for the credit cards.

I spend way over 10Gs already. Too long to list in details by far my favourite lately is the new quad projector i just for a few days ago. Prior to that is probably my 5.1 DTS sourround sound system in my tC. It's not cheap hobby but thank goodness for a well paid job and a very understanding wife
