General rule is that you should expect to lose about 50% of the cost of mods. IMO, a modified car and a molested car are considered two different things by a lot of people.
I agree with a lot of what you are saying, but lets agree to disagree on the rest
One thing for sure, I know that I would regret it at some point - but you cant keep them all!
