How can you dudes afford the mods that you do?

I know im not the poorest dude in the world but all the mods you guys are listing on your car sounds like its costing thousands and thousands of dollars OVER what you initially paid for your car? Is it that your doing it over a long period of time or are you selling crack?

LEt me in on the secret

Buy a cheaper car than you can afford, then save up for mods.

Also, wait around for Group Deals, or buy used. Or just rob a bank, your choice.

Buy your mods gradually! That's if you can stand waiting a long time between doing them. I've just got a good job!
