Get your thinking caps and calculators out.

My "Age to mods ratio" thread is still growing, but now I 'm curious on how many Benjamins you have spent on modifications towards your 1 or 1M. I can't remember the exact price I paid for all 4 of my mods, so I don't expect others to remember 15+ mods. I'm looking for a ball park range.

I'm under $1000. How about you?

The only awards given here are bragging rights.

Let's see...these are estimates...

PS $1200
M3 Arms $350
Dinan Camber Plates $200
3X Alignments due to those mods $250
Performance Side Skirts $500
SS Pedals $70

Total: $2570

Of course I do plan on selling them separately when I get the car and will probably recoup half of that.

I don't know about that but I think the fervor has somewhat subsided since a few years ago but we are still out there
