Intake and exhaust were 500, springs (not installed until next spring.)150 and rear sway bar (not installed either) 150. I hope to hit 1500 by next spring but for now about 800 bucks.

Im trying to think of how much. Problem is that when i want or need something a great deal just comes along. Take for example my newest wheels. I sold my old BSAs to the GF for $300 and bought these for $400 brandy new. I was only out $100 for a complete set of wheels, tires, lug nuts, wrench, and HB rings.



My stereo ... was an even trade for a set of used Tein H-Techs! And so on and so on. Those close to me know that i stumble across good deals all the time. Heck, right now i have another offer for a complete set of matt black wheels & tires for $300 just out of the box! Im not sure if i need 3 sets of wheels. LOL

Oh yeah .. total im out about 3 large. Ill be out another 2 or 3K next spring for paint and one off mods.

Around $4.5K, and still have stock stereo. If asked what it was all spent on, I have to look at my list of mods and cost for each one. most expensive item was wheels, but I reused stock tires. It doesn't seem like I have spent near that much, and so I can see where $10K could be approached, without too much trouble. My spending has been spread over 5 years though, so that is not too bad ($1K/year) I have enjoyed every dollar spent, so it was worth it to me. My motto, and wife encourages it, is "Have fun with the Box!"

I think that's all for now.. my mods are more functional than cosmetic. Well, the LED taillights are always something I wanted hehe ;)
Opps, forgot to add the $1000+ factory fog lights, ipod integration stereo system, and Scion security system.
