$800 for a Greddy Intercooler for a 2019 FK7. I know I'm going to keep this car well into 2040. I think I spent about $200 converting some Yamaha dampers to absorb the car's vibrations with zero benefits.

Damn... like 5k in wheels coilovers and tires for my 22 and I just got it in november lol

 

[ChefRyeSi]

about $4k. FBO yet to be tuned. Not much more to buy besides some wheels/tires and maybe some odds and ends here and there. Have had the car for almost 1 1/2 years and put 12k on it mileage wise

$ 200 bucks for an oil catch can. Have the car for 5 years.

There's a thread for this here:

https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/how-much-do-you-have-invested-in-your-civic.55153/

My post is here:

An update...
From the $30,399 point ($7399 in mods) I've now done:
$1365 BC-BR coilovers
$100 Whitleine adjustable rear links
$171 Whiteline 22mm RSB
$290 Skunk2 rear camber kit
$176 DC Sports upper strut bar
$480 HRS tail lights
$200 Caruse ducktail
$220 CTR Alcantara steering wheel (+$120 install)
$1200 Honda Red LED lighting (+$800 install)
$84 Black H and Civic badges
$26 Black Sport badge
$18 Touring badge (to paint)
$18 horn upgrade
$56 Dead foot pedal
$10 Deadpool valve stem caps

So $12,738 in mods... This thread is very therapeutic. It makes me realize I need to stop for a bit before I hit the engine mods!

Plus I've done a few more things, but who's counting...?

Had the car for about 8 months or so. Mods are limited to:

$160 2022 Si Shift Knob
$12 Full LED Interior Bulbs
$100 OEM Trunk Tray
~$200 Viofo A129 Plus Duo Dash Camera
Don't plan to do any engine mods, as I came from a 2nd Gen Miata so 205hp is more than enough for me.

Near future mods will be:
Full Set of Continental Extremecontact DWS 06 Plus Tires
Katana LED Low Beam Bulbs
Possibly an Oil Catch Can

Distant Future Mods:
Mishimoto Intercooler
Some TE37 Wheels in Bronze

I've spent a around $4k is my guess, my mods are in my signature.

Plan on getting a clutch upgrade and some body mods and tint. Want to get a downpipe but worried it will make my exhaust drone worse.

If I include the shop charge to install my clutch then somewhere ~6.5-7k. Got the car mid 2019 off the lot.

As much as it adds up quickly, just the wheels and high end tires account for almost a 3rd of it.

I have had the car for nine months. I've invested a fair amount of coin, with my biggest purchase being a full front and rear BBK kit, which cost me $2500 ish.

The front, fog, side blinker, and rear light upgrade cost me another $1100. Stock headlights are awful. You can always upgrade to LED bulbs, but I liked the look of the VLAND unit. HRS tail lights are a no-brainer. I have gotten a ton of compliments on it.
