I guess another reply is due; I do go for the cosmetics, but first is the brick be safe and dependable. I've spent much on maintenance, upgrades, etc. Last thing was replacing the, hmm, what do you call it? The undercarriage suspension thing? Some reason I can't seem bring the term to mind at the moment. The suspension has been 'heavily upgraded', many upgrades from IPD. The A/C has been upgraded; new shocks, struts, tires etc.

Engine runs like new even after 300k. Oh, recently had complete brake job and I do mean complete: new rotors, calipers, pads, new stainless steel brake lines, new master cylinder. Replaced all mufflers and exhaust pipes last year, new cat.. Windshield has been replaced. I might 'overdue ' upkeep at times, but what the hey?

Paint job is just a 'topping to the cake' so to speak. The interior is not far from new looking. Dependabilty and safety always and should come first.
