I blew it all on dealer accessories. Everytime I think of something new I want I keep coming back to that. I probably won't buy anything more until I pay it off.

I eyed some VDO Series 1 analog gauges the other day, just couldn't make myself do it:





(I would paint the bezels black)

I did get the Toyota armrest and grease caps after initial purchase. Chrome trim rings were free.

Colgan bra which I don't use anymore: $130
2 sets of hella supertwin horns: $125
Aux. Audio cable - $8


That's pretty much it ;] I try not to spend too much on the box. It's an awesomely fun car to drive as it is. It gets enough looks without the rims, etc that others put on their cars.

Default $ into the box

Over $2500.00.
The bad part is, most insurance companies don't pay over $1000.00 in a claim.
