At 14 you can dream, but it takes alot of work and money to get a car and have it ooking nice...............that is if YOU are buying it all

Hell if you want that kit go for it, but that gets you $1000 in looks. What about paint it to match? What about performance??

And what happens when its gone?? Wrecked??

At 16 I drove a ****ing 89 Mazda 626, that was bought for $2500.

Finally I saved up enough for a down payment on a new 2000 gsr teg. I spent 2 years, making $350 payments, on top of over $5000 worth of mods and in less than 2 minutes, my brother totaled the car, even though it wasn't his fault............EVERYTHING was still gone!
I can't say they other guys insurance didn't pay for the mods.........they did, for some......

AEM CAI - Bought new for $250 - Insurace paid $22
!7" Wheels and tires bought new for $1300 - Insurance paid $114

I also had a header, exhaust, Type R Spoiler, Cams, not to mention all the other little things that just add to it.
Got nothing from insurance on that!!!

WOW I felt compensated!!!

So have at it! Everyone here is trying to help, maybe a $1000 or more kit to be all show, just isn't the way to go, especially when you going to drive it fast....
