Ummm about 2,500. I include the latest repair I had done which was 1717.10.
1-Install of my car stereo (just install) at 437.01.
2-The new 2000 GSR door panels I bought at 242.50.
3-AEM V2 CAI at 210.00
Thats about it. Everything else on the car was there when I bought it, Rims, Intake, Header, Wings West kit, Wings West Wing, dropped and everything...Sweet. I specifically got a car like this so that I wouldnt be spending my paychecks on mods like I use to with my old Civic.

insurance has covered most of my costs but i'm put alot of money into her to keep her running like new. Last vist was $1400, visit before was around $900 and hten there was $4500ish for my crash. Im sure if i drove her softer things would be cheaper... and NON of my money has gone into mods
