repair costs doesnt count as mods hahaha.
I figure I must be up to $20K by now....
Seriously tho...I've got just over $900 in tires, $350 in step bars, $80 in my exhaust (muffler, adapter, & self-install), $100 in door speakers, & a KN filter $50.
So I guess I'm looking at ~ $1480 in mods - man that adds up fast! I still need a speaker box so I can install my sub and amp, which I already had. I want to do gears next, and probably a rear diff cover at the same time, so there's gonna be at least another $1000 by the time I pay for install. Hurry up Uncle Sam, I need my tax return!

The saying goes.. A fool and his money soon part ways..If you got mods worth more then what you drive.Your a fool , but again look at the age ... like kids who have a 2,000 dollar sound system in a 500 dollar car... Must be nice to have mommy and daddy to pay or help to pay..LMAO.. You can flame all you want , but its sad when you need mom or dad to help pay your bills....

do you have pics? I might be interested...I almost built my own fiberglass one last saturday and then I went on craigslist and found that i'd spend about as much on a box as I could just buying one already built.

fine say what you want. if we are putting repair costs count as MODIFICATIONS then we should start adding up gas,windhsield washer fluid, oil/filter and car wash materials. haha. in that case damn i probably have about $15000 in gas alone over the last 3 years,$700 in oil changes, $400 in car washes and materials, and about $20 in washer fluid lol. i mean i thought we were talking about performance modifications here and how much is too much to put into your truck modification wise.
