how long was it for you

[blacknightteg]

to get your car where you have wanted it? did it take you a couple of years? months? or did you buy it that way

[The Yousef]

2 years...when i first got that car it looked like utter p00 (it still does.. :lmfao: )...but slowly but surely she's coming along

[BTLFED]

It's still not where I want it.....actually, neither one of them are.

[MachNU]

bought mine stock and have gotten rims, tint, intake, exhuast, building the sound system this week, have the body kti sitting at my house. So i figure it will have taken me a year to a year and a half to finish ine to the starting point that i want it as.

[Leisa]

it took Brett 6 yrs, and his trunk still isnt done..lol

[boosted1jz]

most cars will never be "done"

i have my car where i like it..... but there is always more that i want done..... wheels, brakes, bigger turbo, rear end, the list keeps going... LOL

[Brett]

I have had mine for 6 years and im still not done.

[PhAtBoYMr2]

i have had my car for about 3 years and it took me about 1/12 years to get it looking the way i wanted it....it will prob take another year or so before i finish the car completly, turbo and all

[ALVIN]

I have had mine for 6 years and im still not done.

Repost lol

[Nitro]

yr & 1/2 still working on it :eye: it will never end until u sell it.........

[blacknightteg]

i know, cars are never done, i was just wandering about like where it is now for you guys, like i just bought mine a year ago, and all right now i have done to it is exhaust, lowered (particallly,lol) an re painted it cuz it needed it, i got alot more stuff i want to do to it, but it feels like the things i want to do to it, wont ever get done

[Tiff-O-Bitties]

it took me years to figure out that it's pointless to mod your car, unless you have another one to drive daily and a ton of money to fix the shit when it breaks..

that's why my car is stock except for it being lowered, and I can say I did that for better handling..

[blacknightteg]

lol yeah, mines a daily

remember it's always going to revolve around time/money <we usually don't have either> but............it really depends on how bad u really want something & how many body parts you're willing to sacrifice...lol :D

[speedminded]

2 years and 3 months and still no where near done. At least it's starting to look somewhat decent or at least a little better than the 17" wheels with the monstrosity of fiberglass they called a body kit and big ass aluminum park bench wing...all on when i bought it. Engine swap, suspension, and a few more misc. things and it still has a long ways to go....

[never_finished]

almost 2 years....and its no where close to being done, and ive already got too much money into it....as said before, custom cars are never done....hence my username :)

[twkg]

foreal d....just takes time. ive had the lude for almost a year n you know im no where near where i thought id be with it at this point.

[5thgcelica]

well ive had it 3 years now. and the exterior is finished.

i still have a lot to do.... lowering is soon. trunk install, needs new carpet and seats, do a little stuff to the door panels. engine swap would be nice one dya...

[JMCIVIC01]

I have made progress but not nowhere near done! Ill be ready for nopi next year though! :goodjob:

[blacknightteg]

yeah, im estimating that mine, the outside wise wont be complete probably till not this nopi but next, all depends on if i want to do a swap or not. i want to win the god damn lottery! lol

Cars are never ending. The 98 hatch was diffrent Almost every year. Almost every year new Paint job, wheels, interior.. blaze blaze.. 5 years of throwing money away.
I accomplished what I wanted to get done and got rid of it.

The 92 Civic, never finished the project, Cousin bought it of me and hopefully he will have it finished soon.

The Audi.. new project, But im sure this one will be WAAYYYYYYYY more less then before, And it will look better and have more power for CHEAPER.

This is what Im Doing as I go :

Chip- Done
K&N Filter - Done
Diverter Valve- Done
GIAC Flashloader
Boost gauge w/some sort of pod
Down pipe
Custom Exhaust
Springs
Black rear valance

So Im almost done with the Audi.. all I want is a fun weekend driver and have some fun @ the track.

Dont even think Im getting wheels and if I do, It wont be anytime soon, really dont care for any.. Maybe some other AUDI wheels.. but thats as far as Ill go.

[Darling Nikki]

I have a pretty simple wagon. I have had it for 7 months and I got what I really needed in pretty good time. It should be done at the end of this year.

[YokotaS13]

3 years to the day on my talon, and i ws just finihsed with the exterior, interior, stereo, and small engine mods, wheels nad suspension. I still had about 6 grand left to go on the engine, i had 21000 or so total in it

[NAIZBST]

5 years and still not done

[Hulud]

1 & 1/2 years so far with no end in sight

[ahmonrah]

bought my acura after my truck was destroyed. havent started with it. and i may not. i was just getting to ordering parts and shit for my truck, working my way down my parts list when it was destroyed. so i'm not gonna start on this thingy yet.

[morelian09]

A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND NO WERE NEAR DONE BUT I LIKE THE WAY IT LOOK NOW THOE SO IM OK BUT MORE MODS TO COME

[RISKYB]

they all take time, the worst thing you can do is try to rush through it b/c you wont like it nothing good is done overnight and nothing done overnight is good either

[civic95]

About 4 yrs. Still not done. There are things I would like to change, and also get a k20 swap. But I would rather save for a newer car than keep dumping money into this thing. I'll keep it and replace things as needed, but thats it. I might even start taking some parts off and selling them.

[Nemesis]

Too long, and now I want an STI.

[HeLLo iM iZzY]

didnt take too long for the 95 teg then it got totaled so now im lookin for another teg and its been some months..im jus waitin for the right deal i guess..

[devinwebb907]

a year and a half and its maybe 85% done....didnt mod it for the first year(unless turbo timer, exhaust, and bov count)
