Stocker or Modder?

What % of our membership are modders and what % are stockers?

Here is what doesn't count as modding:
-Tinted windows
-Rear spoiler from Acura
-Hood air deflector
-Sunroof air deflector
-Dealer installed additions to sound system
-Radar detectors/jammers

I'm a stocker.

I'm a modder too. I like differentiating my TSX a little from stock.

i voted stocker, but when it's my car in a year and 1/2, i think ill upgrade the speakers. im a huge audiophile and the alpine type-s 6.5"s and 6x9's sound awesome in the store. other than aluminum pedals and speakers, i like mine just the way it is. (if i feel a sudden ricer need pop out, add catback exaust, mugen bodykit, turbo, 1/2" ground clearance)

Modded and I'm not even the primary driver. Sad isn't it? I guess Ami and I both get to benefit from the swapping. She gets a quicker TSX and I get a faster RSX.

My car is stock....I have an OEM spoiler, trunk tray, mudguards, and rims. Those definitely don't count as mods.

Seems like everyone that has mods are using aftermarket parts. I guess Acura OEM parts don't count.:P

With all these modders around, my stock will start to look "special" again! Yay!

Though I'll have to somewhat change to lil-modder soon since I'll be adding the AUX/MP3 player in.

No plans on playing with this car. It's leased, after all. Plus, I wouldn't want to spend a whole bunch of money on it and then have to hand the keys over to my brother in a couple years. That'd just be a waste of my money. Saving the money for an S2000.

Yeah, I grew out of that too. Last car I modded was my '89 Civic SI back when everybody else was rolling around in a lowered mini-truck with 15x10 KMC wheels (I know somebody on this board is guilty of having a truck like that ) When I think about how much money I dropped into mods back in the day it makes me shudder, but it was fun at the time I guess, so more power to all you modders...

Some decent response to this poll. Thank you for voting. If you haven't yet please do.

Could anyone, a moderator maybe, tell me what the active population on this site is?

Tell me about it! I can't seem to stop either. I tried to get the Comptech rear sway today but my luck shone on me again I have a thread detailing the experience in the Canada East forum.
