Welcome to the family .. I'm sure you will find more things to spend more money on .... Between wheels, suspension, engine and body Mods, I have a small fortune invested in mine... The messed up part is that I can honestly say that I'm still not finished lol ... If you have any questions, you can learn from my adventures. I'm happy to answer any questions. Cheers |
