stock or modified?

I love the modified look, those wheels and some simple appearance mods makes it look like a whole different car! What suspension set up do you have if I may ask.

I've actually been pouring over my "future mod list" and I keep remembering how much I loved the car that I bought. I'm gonna stick with subtle changes instead of going for the "show stopper" look.

I am a big fan of modified cars that look bone stock. Had a 1991 LX 5.0 and put $10k plus into that car. Aside from sitting a little lower the car remained bone stock looking down to the 5 spoke wheels. I am going the same direction with my 2014 Track Pack GT. Only exterior mods going on the car is the GT500 spoiler and possibly the boss/cs front splitter. Under the skin its a whole other story. Far from stock.

I am not a fan of exterior mods as well. Except for the wheels/tires/exhaust, I keep mine stock looking. Under the skin, I have some minor mods; tune, sound system upgrades.

As a guy I worked for many years ago used to say, "Whatever blows your dress up."
The only exterior mod mine has is the Stubby antenna. I may put mud guards on it. I'm another vote for the stock look.

I will agree the stock holds it's value more but I hope my mods are subtle enough to not scare someone off. I've put a lot of money into this car I know I won't get back but it will keep me from getting a 2015. For a while at least

I like mine to look different since so many are on the road. I think every person should modify a car to their own personality, whether it be plain or radical.

Stock, except for some appearance mods (and exhaust of course). Most of which are in the cabin and under the hood. I don't even have stripes (as it seems the lower on the totem pole you go as far as model trims, the more stripes / hash marks, etc, the cars seem to have).

It should show in my signature now but last night I was on my phone. Suspension mods are Koni orange shocks with GT500 upper mounts, BMR springs, J&M panhard, J&M rear LCA and CHE relocation brackets. I've done quite a few exterior mods too. I am enjoying them but it's not stock for sure. GT500 wing, Roush side splitters and rear Roush side splitters. MMD tail light tint and trim. AM upper and lower grill. Fog deletes. Different wheels, stubby antenna and that's about it exterior wise.

I don't really have a preference when it comes to modified vs. stock. I love tastefully modded cars, though nice clean stock cars are refreshing. When it comes to exterior mods I love subtle modifications that make people wonder if it is a stock piece or not.
