The AINT getting any MODs this Holiday Season Thread

OK, I know its that time of year. Everyone running around, buying Holiday Gifts (or not ... whatever). Anyone with a few extra Green Stuff going to get those new MODs. Whatever meets your fancy, a little bit of performance ... a little bit of bling ... all good.

So tell me if you AINT! That is ...

I AIN'T getting no mods this Holiday Season ... How about you

I AM trying to cover my basis for the SSR comp wheels with super stickies . Probably, i will have Ken arrange a conference call with me and my wife for a support.

Unless you count the car itself as a life mod - I'm getting zero, zilch, nadda, nothing - NO MODS.


So, the parcel shelf may show up around the same time as the car - but I consider that part of the original purchase as there is really no reason we shouldn't be getting it here in America.

The tail lights, they probably won't show up until next year sometime - not a mod for right now, especially as I'm not positive how I want to do them (or if)...

The only MOD I will be getting is a set of Dunlop M3s for the Michigan winters. Not so much a fun mod as a nescessary mod imo.

I won't even have the car until sometime in mid to late january. So, I don't suppose I'll get any mods.

Xbox 360 and PGR3 for me instead . I'd like to get some new wheels and summer rubber in the spring though.

Hopefully I will be able to resist the urge to purchase a Alta CAI and place it under the tree for the misses. Knowing full well she would rather have something from Tiffany's than for her car

This would be easier if it were the "no mods this week" thread. I am humbled, however, by those with some semblance of self-control.

No mods for the hollydays. The parcel shelf will be here and installed way before that...
IF I keep the '03 and don't upgrade to the '06...

Hah! I seem to have a Toshiba laptop wanting to commit harikari (it has amazingly flown off of my lap twice this week)! I may have to get a Mac ibook. But I would LOVE to get a Milltek exhaust for Miss Wanda.

No mods for me! Gifts for others are taking all my money.

When the bonus comes in the end of January, it will be a different story...hopefully.
