TNT Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Since Jun 2007, £500 on ICE, £2500 on complete leather interior, carpets and mats, £500 on kit and £2300 on fitting and complete respray. Also £140 on paint etc for dash respray and home refurb of alloys, guess which was the most satisfying. Budget gone! £6500 in total, more than the car cost but oh so worth it.

Jazzy Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Having always sent big on my cars in the past, I bought my Supra for 14k with all the mods done (nice single etc). Saying that I've still managed to spend about £300 on some finishing touches for the interior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
