ran a few too many diff exhaust set ups to get it right , I dont regret it but wish I did it right the first time. I guess I also regret shopping at RMPloutlet once upon a time and not shopping around enough locally for installs/bodywork.

you live and you learn

I have no regrets about the mods I've done. It's mostly all exterior stuff, as I tend to enjoy dressing it up more than having all this extra power I don't really need. There are days where I think I maybe I should switch to a different look, but my car looks great. I'm happy with everything I've done so far.

1st - I regret going out and buying a CAI & SCT tuner when I first bought the car, just to S/C it a few months later and not be able to use anything..lost my rear on that deal.

2nd - I regret shopping/buying at Blue Oval Industries a few weeks ago. The springs I was really looking forward to installing on my car turned out to be a sour deal for me and several others on this forum!

But as alloutt said, "you live and learn".....

I regret painting my trunk spoiler black.

Some day I'm going to get a red GT500 or Roush spoiler to replace it.

I think the big key is knowing what you really want out of the car. Performance, appearance, audio, interior & in-car, whatever.

And then to be able to look into the future a little to see what will work with what else (or not) instead of "having to change something right now just to change it". Otherwise known as having a plan and sticking reasonably close to it.

About the only mod I have any regrets over is the set of 15 x 8.5 wheels I got for another car - none of the newer performance tires come in 15's any more and just having the "look" of performance rubber is not good enough for me.
