Lightbulb How much money have you spent in upgrades?

What upgrades do you love the most and which ones could you live without/regret?

So far every mod I have is needed in my eyes. Except the last 3.
Tint - 180 - keeps sun from baking my interior
Greddy exhaust - 400
Clear corners - 70
Tien lowering springs - 400 with installation - kills that ugly wheel gap in the front
Front mudguards - 40 - keeps rocks from chipping up the bottom
LED marker and parking bulbs - 30
Blue caliper paint - 16
blue lugs - 15

Well, since no one here cares that there's an already existing thread on this subject, I guess I'll play along too.

How much I spent?

These pictures will express how much I have spent.

It is easy to spend $10k in mods. I am sure several on this board have spent at least $15k and some well over $20k.
