My biggest regret is what I didn't do. I wish I would have gone gen3 or sleeved block. I would be spraying if I did. Now I have a complete n2o setup collecting dust

i cant really say i really regret anything ive done. some things ive done i regret not spending a little more money. case and point, i wish i had spent the extra on a set of koni yellows instead of the ss/tc struts. nothing wrong with the tc struts, they work well, i just wish the back end had a little stiffer rebound.

Hell yea I was.
I daily tat bitch and push it in on the locals lol.
It was just WAY more work than needed.
There was a concealed slice in the HPFP that was both getting wet and losing stable connection. It was sliced enough to **** things up sometimes, but still work normal others.

i debate mods for months before I make them anymore. way to many impulse buys modding other cars that I have learned to wait on things. seeing as the only mods Ive done to this car are the retrofits and repairs, im happy with how its coming along. As far as most regretted mod on previous cars, id say its a toss up between a few different things for different reasons. On one of my mustangs, i put side exit exhaust. in traffic i would inhale exhaust fumes and over speed bumps id scrape no matter how slow i went. i also had undercar neon lights that after installing them, I was too embarrassed to even turn them on. I forgot they were there until a few years later, I was installing a nitrous kit with a friend and running the line when he saw them. they still worked and we took them off and used them as work lamps the rest of the night before smashing them against a lamp pole when we were done. I also changed wheels at least 4 times before I just broke down and spent the money one the ones I wanted originally. In the process, I could have bought the right wheels twice over when it was all said and done. Luckily, Ive learned from all this and gotten wiser now.

My first mod, and only besides armrest.
My headlights.
I went out to go to lunch yesterday.
Clicked unlock on my fob, my FL turn bulb was out.
Eh w.e i got bulbs.

Popped the hood to pull it out, the bulb melted in the socket...
Is this a common problem with aftermarket assemblies? Or is there potentially an underlying problem here?
