Dilemma: I am thinking if I should stop modding or continue? I have 2004 525i with 58k miles

My current mode:
LCI Tailight V6 cable + OEM M166 tires with michelin all seasons tires + M5 style spoiler + HID Headlight and Foglight + Rash License Plate Light + Euro stickers + Red Reflectors

Wish List: Mtech Kits, Tinted Window, RPI Exhaust. = ~ looking about $$3500 for it?


OR saving my $ and waiting for to buy another awesome car, vacations, etc?

Any advice would be appreciate it!

If I were single, I'd take the $3,500 and fly to China for some of that delicious take-out shown on your video (the woman, of course).

If you are asking the question, you are not going to stop modding. I know an addict when I see one.

Haha I agree with Michael. And if you think about it this way, mods depreciate less than a car (or almost none at all if you buy used mods). Just go to Vegas (vacation), win $3,500, buy your mods, and viola!
