Don't spend the kind of money you guys do, but I do buy a lot of detailing products to "try them out". Got all sorts of waxes, polishes, interior detailer, leather conditioner, tyre dressing, countless microfibre's, drying cloths, DA polisher, rotary polisher, lambswool wash mitts, wheel wash mitts and crevice cleaners, black trim wax - you name it, must have got over a grands worth in the garage.   :rolleyes:  :laugh:
Only thing I've bought to put in the car is some mats with the R logo on. [Don't do mods, I prefer standard] Oh, and a Richbrook titanium with carbon fibre back tax disc holder.

dont know what ive spent but it had a WALK, audi s3 gear linkage, miltek exhaust, pipercross filter and a remap within a month of getting the car new.

within 1 year its had WALK, remap, MILTEK, ITG maxogen CAI, bilstein B12, bump steer kit, rear ARB, and some other crap i cant remember. probably a few grand spent on it. the suspension was well worth the money though i reckon.

maybe i should have just bought a megane 265 or r26r in the first place....

Same here.  No mods, but spending increasing sums on detailing products and this forum only exacerbates my habit   :rolleyes:   

Won't stop though  :laugh:

Im addicted to detailing as well have way too much stuff at the moment and keep buying more.

but as soon as my warranty runs out i think i will look into making the steering heavier and then anti roles and suspension. then after that i think a revo tune is in order. so will happily rob ideas for everyones build threads.  :grin:
