Quick Mod Question?
Based on my current income from my job, it seems I will have just enough money for the H & R Cup Kit at the same time as my birthday which is when I will also be getting birthday money. Just wondering do most people like to make a bunch of mods all at once or do them methodically like every other month or something. I think my car will look much better and much different if I get springs, exhaust, darker tints, and possibly black grill all at once. (haven't posted in awhile, good to be back

Unless you want ppl to look at yr car and say...."wow, this guy got a MB and has money to buy the bodykit but he doesnt even have money to buy wheels" or something like that....otherwise, leave eveything as stock.
Serious car modifications is a VERY EXPENSIVE hobby & is an endless road!!! Do what you can afford is what normally ppl will say to you BUT I would suggest you to leave everything stock until you have money to do all the mods at once. But even if you have money to buy all the mods you want, I would still recommend you to buy piece by piece because you'll appreciate more!!

If I have enough money to upgrade then I'll do it one at a time when the money permits 
.....or get a loan from a bank and buy bunch of upgrades

It Depends
For certain mods, it is best to save up and do the install at one time - I am talking about the suspension - springs, shox, anti sway bars, camber kits - you don't want to do that more than once - the labor is expensive to do it more than once
For smaller mods, pay as you go - clearbra, side mirrors, interior adjustments
Or for expensive one time mods like pulleys, you can only save up and do it once.
The others are right - mods are toys, pay as you go unless the interest rate is really, really low

Seriously though.... mods should be done *** you can get the money.. don't rush to get a loadn for a keeman SC or something like that and then feel bad about it later on...
Good luck with your mods!

thanks for all the replies!
I guess it would be best to accumualte mods as I get the money. In which case I think my next mod will in fact be the H&R Cup Kit 3.5...what would you get with $800-$900 ??
