How long do you plan on keeping it? I'm always curious to see people modify their cars, as doing so generally tends to lower a car's value substantially once you try to sell it, so it's a definite risk to do so. I know most buyers (including myself) would never consider a car if it wasn't stock....too many negative connotations (driven hard by some pe@kerhead, mods weren't done right etc) that go along with it to risk it. But hey if you're going to keep it for a long while, or can reverse it when you sell it, it might not be an issue.
Usually my goal is to pay it off and get a new one, yes I'm one of those stupid people. In all honestly I have a younger brother who will be getting his license in that range of years so I might just give it to him, but at the same time 300HP+ might not be a smart idea for a new driver.

With my mods I usually don't do much that can't be reversed. So far I have just changed the front grill, rims (still have my stock rims/tires for winter), lowered and a few lighting changes. In the next 12 months I'm looking to add sway bars and an intake, nothing crazy. I don't plan on going too crazy, I love the look of it as is and performance wise it's face enough and can handle pretty good.
