Just like for my current car I only modded a couple things here and there. Small stuff like lights, angel eyes, and interior stuff. But like others have said its all based on the owner of the car.

OK but ,,Auto Namen Gitta" doesn't make any sense. It's just 3 words together.

I agree, the car was and carefully planned out for years and was designed the way it is for a reason. If I didn't like it for what it was, I wouldn't have gotten it.

Still...at least people can see the difference. What about the illuminated door sills for $800 in which people can't even see them. That's a absolute waste right there, IMO.
Wheels, front lips, rear spoiler are good mods for the look.

I do agree.

A car can very easily go from Hot to overdone. Just watch some car programs on the discovery channel *shakes head*

I got my blacklines for $190. I thought that was a good price for the mod, especially because I prefer amber turn indicators over red. For me, I'd say my splitters were the mod that is most "not worth the money" just because they are so expensive.
