I made some dumb (financially speaking) mods to my 8th gen civic when I had it. Nothing that completely broke the bank, but plenty of things that, after sitting in my garage for far too long, I realized I could've just not spent money on, saved that money, and gotten much more meaningful parts if I had a little bit of patience.
My build plan is pretty simple this time around, since I have a car that is at least fast enough in stock form to keep me entertained for awhile, so I don't plan to make any real performance modifications until performance related parts start to break down anyway (Drive an '09 sport base with about 85k miles now). I figure I'll do a few aesthetic things, then when the big repairs come down the road, upgrade and do big modifications as they come.
