Didn't you have all the writing in the bottom like us, you know the breakdown of all your mods? I thought you took it out for laughs when you said "you guys are all the TRUE ballers!!!
as for me, no comment! " and was going to put it back in. But looking at your photo I see it's under your car pict, my bad....

So true, look at EuroCarFan. After getting his M5 his modding expenditure went through the roof. 
But man, the satisfaction and smile I have on my face whenever I see and drive my car is priceless. I'm sure it's that way with all of you guys as well. So....just keep feeding the habit. Steal, rob, swindle money if you have to. This is a better high than drugs. Drugs are bad for your health.

My car alone, stock would get an M5 in the states. Paid 120,000USD just for a 520D. My mods are a bit overpriced since I'm a foreigner in Thailand, and usually gets ripped off in about everything.
M-Tech = 3000 USD
Hartge Lip = 800 USD
Sebring Exhaust = 1000 USD
Quad Diffuser = 400 USD + 200 USD For new tips.
Koni FSD + Eibach Pro = 1200 USD
Remap = 800 USD
Hartge Pedals & E-Brake = 300 USD (Not sure, forgot what I paid)
Hartge Rims + Rubber = 6250 USD (Yes it is way over priced but hey its Thailand, most wheels are overprice for some reason)
Thats all ic an remeber for now. Prices are approximate, because of the USD-THB exchange rate and my memory of what I actually spent.
