Impressing people on the internet or at a car show over how much I spent doesn't appeal to me, perhaps it does to others and that's their prerogative and there is nothing wrong with it.

After all, I bought the Z over a Cayman because it was a "cheap" way to get a good looking fun sports car with decent amenities, yet I don't see you lot telling me I should have just bought the quality car.
the quote of mine that you're referring to (in a bit of a douche way fyi) was said PRIOR to the OP saying it's not about money.

I said what I said based on precedent. typically 90% of the people who pose this question/idea about cheap parts is doing it because they can't afford them. hence why I said what I said. furthermore, if you had more then 30 posts you'd probably realize the running jokes about people poorly doing DIY parts and the jokes that follow.
