    Default Is a car ever "Complete"

    Since being a member on "Car Forums" I have noticed that 99.9% of Commodore owners are planning big things for their cars.... Me I'm in no hurry, rather partly own the thing before it costs me anymore!

    Craig for 1 example first said he was just going to lower his, mags, tint it, put a nice exhaust on it and be done.... Since then he has put a stage 2 shift kit in it, roller rockers, new flash Harry brakes and now he recently decided he is going to save his change and supercharge it, after looking into it, he is also going to put a intercooler on it.

    Are car mod's like tatoo's to you? You know once you get one you want more?

    Will your car ever be complete?

    I don't think my car would ever be finished. Once the interior is done I will almost be happy for a little while, but if I find parts at the right price I will always pick them up. There are always improvements to be made somewhere
    Modding cars is so addictive there really should be a helpline for it.

    But whats your limit? When have you spent too much?

    I know by the time Craig has done what he wants to do there will be more and he would have spent at least $10k on it.... Its a VT ffs lol.
