Yeah... You can do cosmetic mods all you want and not get "the bug".. But after a cai/tune, you're just bitten.. You've gotten a taste of how much more the car has to offer, and it's a downward spiral from there on out..... :-(
LOL It's fun though. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
And hey - I see you have heated seats.. That's the only option mine doesn't have, and being a vert, I'd REALLY like them. I'm thinking about having them installed, but I want the buttons in the factory location. Where are the buttons? Also, are the factory ones just on/off, or do they have multiple stages of heat (hi/lo)?

Definitely addicted - but I haven't gone as far as you have yet - although I'd like to! Saving a bit for FI in the spring. I've never even gone for the intake/tune yet, it'll be a huge step up to a SC!

Yep.. a month after I said I was done I had gears installed. Next week will be next exhaust and hopefully Steeda Ultralight springs.
Don't worry.. there are a lot of little things to do to keep you going in-between the bigger things.. (shorty antennae, subtile interior, exterior, and engine bay mods...).

No really...
You haven't seen me cutting cars in a half before.
Like that VW bug I did years ago with 2 front end clipswelded together.
Talk about confusing going down the road[&:].

Sweet, thanks. Looks like I have to find a new piece for my dash if I expect to have the buttons in the factory location.. Dammit, whoever ordered my car, why didn't you order heated seats?!?!? (but thanks for not showing up to get it when it came in, thus allowing me to get it a year later at a DRASTICALLY reduced price... )
