The lip (kit), wheels, mirrors, hood, and other fancy non-go fast parts cost probably $10k alone, not to mention $2k+ for coilovers, more than likely.

I suggest you know who you're calling an idiot before you open your cockholster, kid.
Most of the people on here don't realize how much money really goes into actually modding a car. It is easy to put 20k into a car and not even realize it. I've got a little over 6k in my talon and it still looks stock except for wheels.
