Well, sorry to hear that. U were the one who always kept sayin' that u were gonn keep your ride "forever." Also, it's not b/c u really hoped to get a Contour runnin' fast and wild; it's more like a hobby putting more and more time/effort into something. Also, think about it - u won't be able to even get your money back - like we all know that something that costs $100 (as an aftermarket part) adds nothing to the total car's cost when sold.
So, to make a long story short - don't do that!
I realize I would get crap for it. Right now I am going nuts thinking about "IF I do this....." It is real frustrating. I realize that it is in me to mod anything that I drive. What keeps me coming back to the Contour is this site and people on this site. Everytime I get in my car I get looks.....nods of approval. I got so much attention at the track it wasn't even funny. At work today one of the older ladys complimented my rims! It is MY car. People that see me know it is mine. Right now I am little pissed and a little tired.
