How much have you put into your Sonic?

[Swordsmith]

To be fair I am not making an apples to apples comparison with the rest of you since I included labor that I paid for, new tools I needed to do the work I managed to do myself, and the LT and Turbo and CC which came with the car when I bought it. So for comparing purposes I should say $5167

 

[slitzell]

Sounds about right swordsmith. It will quickly be 6g for me with the aluminum charge pipe/bov and intake mani. Im gonna be saving hardcore for them

 

[dvn]

Hmmm. I'm guessing around $2500 including the wheels I'm about to order. Shhhh, don't tell my wife.

 

[slitzell]

hah my girl thinks ive spent less than a thousand. I told her my full turbo back costed me about 250 lol. best part is she believed me, good thing shes clueless about prices for car parts lol

My wife never noticed my new rims. I was nervous the first time she rode in it after I put them on. She stopped, looked at them long and hard and then said, "I think your tires are low, you might want to check'em."
LMAO

Windows Tinted (If i can find a damn shop to get it done), Estimate Cost $180-250... and Have a Subwoofer Installed via Line-In Converter thru the Stock Headunit, Estimated Cost $100-150...

So By the start of summer i should be looking at roughly $1300-1400 total Spent on my Sonic Within or just past the First year of owning my Sonic. Will be 1 year this March. Its hard to believe ive had my new car for almost a full year already!

[$ub$onic]

Keeping your lens clean are a big thing with these I have noticed....

 

[slitzell]

Well i dont live in BFE like you sub so thats not an issue for me and its florida. It was 80 degrees and sunny today lol

 

[$ub$onic]

Ya my car gets bad.... witch is why I'm digging the DRI wash and guard.

 

[Bree]

And I cringed at the $189 bill for freakin floor mats. haha

 

[$ub$onic]

Ya that's bad I'd love some weather techs though

 

[Bree]

That's what they are, weathertech floorliner. I decided I wasn't going to half it lol Seriously totally worth it! I've had it just a week and the floor mats are SO white and dirty from salt and snow. But better them than my black car interior.
