'01 CLK 55
None to date, though my record is 400% of the car's value in mods(including labor)...More $$$ than sense back in the day. Fun while it lasted, but never to that extent again. My wife would have my A$$ big time.

I'll make everyone feel better about themselves and their money.
My Spyder showcar, when it is done with the sound system January 2003 will have topped about 95K in aftermarket customized modification!!!!!
That figure is including sponsorships from companies though. Out of my own personal pocket, it is about 40K on top of the price of the car. With that said....go visit your local Kleeman dealer and get that damn supercharger you've always wanted.

About $42,000 retail, but obviously as a dealer, my prices are less. This includes a lot of parts that are no longer on my car, as they did not live up to the manufacturer's claims (don't worry, we don't sell them!).

Ever since my first car.... todate... well over 150K... can't really remember all of it.
Some major moded cars were:
My 1st RX-7 was $40K, 2nd RX-7 was 20K, Lotus was about $9K... M3 was $6K... Datsun so far is $3K,300ZX TT with $4K, Prelude at $5K, A4 was only $3K...
I don't think it's that bad, I mean a decent set of rims will set you back around 3K...
So far on the CLK is $500... just the Remus exhaust for now.

Uhhh.... well, let's just say that by the time my car is done, I will have spent less than I would have at Renntech, but the figure nevertheless contains 6 figures (not including the car).
