Well let's see...
Stereo/Tint = $500
OEM lip kit = $1100
CAI = $90
Tein Springs/KYB shocks = $427
Rims/Tires = $2025.38
Carbon Fiber B Pillars = $86.20
Exhaust = $559.20
Labor = $250
Crap, that's more than I remembered. And yes that was in the last 2 months.
Oh well, it looks SICK and would do it all over again and again.

About $1,700.00 total between repairs, mods and reg maintenance in about 1 year of happy ownership!

We aren't crazy. We just love our cars and want them to look good.

Had 2 accidents (4,800 and 7,300 paid my own pocket) and one big scratch rear bumper(150 discounted YAY !) plus there some other tranni issues i fixed, replaced 4 springs and struts, 4 brand new tires, 4 brakes pads and 2 front rotors, gave away all those goods ( coilovers and some other mods) and some other things before i sold the car, im forgot how much but my dad paid for it.

I haven't spent that much...

$120 for window tint
$40 for 3A tips
$180 for spoiler

Maintence will get you though...

$550 for idler control sensor
$500 for tires
$300 for new brakes
$120 for new wiper arm motor

Lost count of the amount of money I spend on cleaning/washing products...

Since my trans is going out, a CLS6 is about to squash the wallet.

I spent $4500 on my TL when I had it, and I was able to get out pretty clean selling all of my mods for $3500 when I was done.
