Don't get pissed... Get EVEN!

Too bad for you it's a FREE world, eh?

:lol:








Besides, we're still trying to get more and more people to begin show-casing their stuff. Even as it is, some are not even showing photos (EHEM! EHEM! You know WHO you are...) :lol:

So, chill lah. Bear with us (if you wish).

Besides, it's TOO SMALL an issue for you to get pissed at.

Lets not start this, next people will complain about stupid mods just to have the car with the most money spent on their vehicle. As long as people are not fabricating mods to their vehicles, members are welcome to post what mods they want......and people are proud of what they did to their vehicles.

Hi everyone.

Here is my impartial 2 cents.

I'm pretty sure there is no competition here because there is no prize... LOL :lol:

Hey Maltatrucker, I understand your concern but you rank #1 in most money spent.

Having a look at ampangbear's mods, they look valid. Even if we group the 3 horns together it will change his # of mods from 34 to 32. Hardly worth complaining about.

Then there is the issue of current mods where 1 mod superseeds another making the previous mod redundant. I think this should be included because it is an idea of a mod that is shared on the garage for everyone to see and learn, to consider if they too would like to mod their car like that. The old previous mod might still be a good mod to be listed.

I think what is more important than mods are faults.

I have started logging my faults under "description", the mileage it occured and how much it cost to fix. I don't consider things like cambelt/timing belt, shocks, tyres etc. repairs but normal maintanence, so I don't list those.

Whats the Big deal if I listed every penny I have put in my Car to upgrade I would be Well over you.
It is not a contest to see who spent the most $$$$
It is a place to show and be proud of your car and what you have done to it.

If you look in mine I left alot of things blank on the $$$.

That is because I have traded stuff and work to aquire the items.
