You'll get bit by the modding bug sooner or later

I usually don't mod cars since the turn around them is pretty quick for me and you never get your money out of them. My E92 will stick around longer than the norm so I decided to hell with it, now I've got a garage full of parts and more on the way

I do have to say the older I get, the more tame my mods end up being.

Eisenmann sport is as loud as I would want it. Eibach springs is as low I would want it.

5 years ago I would have been slammed with Eisenmann race with no cats and wanting it to be louder.

I just think there are plenty of mods out there to cater to all ages. I get how you feel though. Sometimes I think 20s on the car is immature for a guy who is 30, but then i realize im modding for myself and no one else.

Bone stock......for now. The mod bug has been on my shoulder since i was 16. Minor things planned ...chip...exhaust and maybe some springs...upgrade to the 19's also. Other than that stock.
