OKAY, DECIDED ON OEM KIT, but will my girlfriend notice?
Wassup guys. I am in a little delemia. I live with my girlfriend. I finally decided to get the OEM Kit. However, If my girlfriend ever found out I spend a grand on a my kit she would be pretty pist since I told her I was a little short on money. (She wanted to go to vegas for valentines. 
) Anyways, my question is..
DO YOU THINK SHE WILL NOTICE a difference in the car? I mean, the OEM kit is very subtle and she's really not into cars.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

Say that someone gave it to you in exchange for helping them with computers/yardwork/moving. Something good like that. You gotta make it sound like the bodykit is not worth very much money and you some how worked out a deal4 to get it.
ie: It was a used bodykit worth like $250 bucks....You helped the dude out with fixing some of his computers and he said you can just give him $100 for it later.

She will absolutely notice the body kit, but unless she knows a lot about cars she will have no idea how much it cost. $200 sounds like it could be about right, say it's used. It was a "one time deal" too. Good luck man. OEM kit rocks.
Oh and remember... it's not a lie if you believe it's true.

I think you have issues w/ your girl that go beyond the body kit good luck though, I'm trying to convince my girl that dropping a grand on coilovers is reasonable

and tell her you're gonna get it, or don't even bother. Chances are she will notice. If its your money then why is this even an issue? Are you married?

she will notice. If she doesn't say anything you know that when you see someone who does know something about cars will eventually say something about it infront of her and then you will be screwed. It will be even worse than just getting the kit cause then you also kept it from her which is what she will probably be more pissed off at.

It's figurative speech. I could car less about your the lil beanbag between your legs. But seriously dude, what's the worst that is gonna happen if your girlfriend finds out? Is she gonna make you take it off? She isn't even your wife and she's already controling where you spend your own hard earned money? Please dude...
Oh and don't take things so seriously, lighten up. Welcome to the internet

Just tell her you got a good deal on it and you wanted it for a long time. 'Nuff said.

Forget what some of these immature goobs are saying --- don't lie to your girlfriend. Tell her the truth if she notices and forget about it if she doesn't. But I agree that your problems go farther than a body kit. If she tries to control your money and you aren't even married, then maybe you need to break up or something. Otherwise, tell her the friggin TRUTH. Any relationship where there is dishonesty isn't worth crap. Well, move over Dr. Ruth your thinking, but that is my

yeah, if it doesn't work out, you can find comfort in the d&r section of ramblings.
