depends on cash really. and if it is a reliable car.
re paint is going to cost ALOT if done properly. if you could find a car with a colour you like you could probably buy it and be ahead allready. indicators are cheap mod. windows are only couple hundred so semi cheap lowering is cheap. the main thing really is how good is the car really. if its going to cost you say 4-5 grand for the mods you have listed alone (assuming paint is done proffesionaly) then it could be worth spending 4 grand on an el-ef or 2-3 on an ed. in a colour you like then spend a grand or 2 on the rest of the mods and more. |

Well, its a awsome car great on fuel, See my uncles a retired spray painted and panel beater so all I have to do is get everything he needs to do it, he dosent want anything else and the paint cums up AWSOME, I have the paint recenlty brought it, cost me $300.00 in totall so with thiners, undercoat sandpaper and all the rest it will all up maybe cost me $500.00 - $600.00 bucks.. I did forget to say I want to put a half desent sports system maybe a red back or something under it soo... all up the car maybe cost me $4000.00 in total with my wheels. So I will save alot and get what I want in the end.. My dad thinks it would be better to get another car... So I dont no.... They say mum and dad no best lol
