Well $23k is a lot of money to shovel into a car. I bought my car, swapped the motor, had the motor fully built, suspension, and rims done on my car for well under what you are looking at. Granted I need a paint job but the car is far from ugly and it runs 13.9 all motor in the 1/4.

I guess I just don't see the point of spending all that money on heavy crappy exterior mods when a simple clean look is much more appealing.
