How Much have you Spent in Mods?
Reading lots of posts (daily), and looking at your rides I see many of you are not content to leave these cars stock, and probably have a good bit of "aftermarket change" invested. Ever figure out what you have tied up in "goodies", dollar wise? Looks like I'm liable to catch the same disease since I really want sways and headers, and I'm sure it won't end there. (Even a 30 thousand dollar car isn't enough LOL!)

Wow..........now I really feel like a cheapskate. However, I began "priming" my wife for 18" rims when these tires get a little more worn and I get really tired of these 10 holed aftermarket "temp" rims! I also told her my car needs more power-to prove it I passed a car last night on a short stretch-and it was shall we say, a little tight! "Now sweetie, with headers and a K&N............."
