I mod my car for me. If people like it, that's . I Think it's pathetic that some people buy shit for their car just to post it on the internet and get praised.

Having said that, I regret modding my car h: Money pit :happysad:

stock works....and works damn well (as proven by the dyno day)

but i meant that stock sucks in terms of being a little more unique
