Tires- $850 I know this is a grey area since they are a wear item but they were also my single biggest performance gain too.

Audio- $2,000

I've done tons of upkeep items like floor mats, interior trim pieces, anything to keep the inside perfect but I guess those are wear items.

No plans for more except maybe the braces. I have another money pit that has consumed (in one year) 20K.
I forgot that the W6s were taken out of the Buick so scratch $700 off of my list.

$3,500 or less spread over 5 years isn't too bad. Would've been double that if I paid someone to work on it.

Hmmm this should be interesting. Lets see. I am not going to include maintenance items. Only upgrades for performance and style.

RV-6 J-Pipe/Test Pipe: $400
Stage 3 Exhaust Mod: $150
Fog Lights: $20, $10
Isimple Ipod adapter: $150
USA Spec Ipod adapter: $120
Window Roll up mod: $50
Fujita CAI: $212
Window Tints: $135
Front Speaker Upgrades: $100
Sub Upgrade with Amp: $400
Progress Rear Swaybar: $150

Total: $1897


Wow!!! I didn't realize it was that high! Lets see the Isimple adapter didn't work. It's junk. The Window roll up mod didn't work, more junk. The CAI I took off because I hated the sound. So I wasted just over $400....

Probably under $2k. If I were to put in $20k+ like some of you my car would have some better mods than CF engine covers, etc.

Yep. I would rather have the turbo kit, BBK and suspension mods than 20K mostly in appearance.
