How much money have you spent modding your car?
 
Title says it all, lets share our stories with each other ! I'm currently in the introductory stage of modding my car. I'll start first:

1. Gloss black roof $650

2. Blue tinted back windows $130

3. Rear roof spoiler $350

So far total: $1130

Planning to get some Vertini wheels (19s) soon with a set of new All season tires. Looking to lower it also with h&R springs. Total i'm looking is around $4000 with alignment and taxed in.

What about you guys? How much $ have you guys spent on modding your car so far?
