just wondering what everyone is spending to upgrade their perspective trucks? So far I have spent $226 for K&N air filter system, $130 for Flowmaster with install, and $319.90 for Diablo Sports Predator Flash Tuner..

My To-Do List includes:
[ul][*]New interior carpet - $158[*]New car seat covers - $430[*]Black chrome Speed grille - $175[*]Carbon Fiber LED Tailights - $340[*]Projector Halo Headlights - $300[*]Clear Parking Lights - $120[*]Bolted Fender Flares - $418[*]20" Toyo Tires and Rims - $2,000[*]New Paint Job with Hail Damage repair - $2000[/ul]
Total Cost = $6617.00

This is what my list includes right now.. After I get all this done, I also want to change out my exhaust and add headers. These prices are only estimations, but not far from the truth.

 

Sounds like a good list. Mine doesn't include that much (mostly because I'm married and have a kid ). I'm probably not going to focus much money on the engine since I'm not into racing and I don't do too much hauling with it. I'm more looking at body modifications:

X-Pel Headlight Protectors - 44.95
WeatherTech Wind Deflectors - 49.95
Electrically Powered Air horn - 51.99
Pet Pad Seat Protectors - 34.95
Westin Extended Cab Nerf Bars - 319.00
DeeZee Truck rail Protectors - 114.95
K&N Air filter - 45.00
WeatherTech Floor Liners - 91.00
Hella Angel Eyes Foglight Kit - 53.95
Projector Head Lights - 300.00

 

for the true gear head, mods are like crack and i don't think that i can reach the point where i say enough is enough.

 

Here, here! But I think despite being the same way, I've got a short and sweet list due to the overwhelming fact that I have a 95 Z28 crying out my name all day long. So for me:
-ECU tune
-billet grill
-Altezza clear tail lights
-possibly a windshield banner that says KONG in big high impact font

I should have these done by the end of the year. Then I'm gonna start saving money to rebuild my 4L60E in my Camaro. After I get my Camaro running good it has a lot of crap that needs to be fixed in it and on it (it is my project car after all) so I imagine my truck won't be getting much else done to it after those few things. I'd really like to get a picture of King Kong airbrushed on the tailgate. One of my dad's friends does airbrush work but I think I'm gonna put the money in something more useful for now.

 

Well lets see
Volant cai and scoop- $300
Dual exhaust- $280
Retuned CPU-$225
17x9 helo max 6 wheels-$600
Toyo ats 285 70 r17 -$750
Black nerf bars-$129
Vent Visor-$30
Bug shield-$35
Trand depot tbspacer-$50
Black tool box-$300
Amsoil

So to come.
Headers still not sure which ones.
Maybe a cam swap have not decided.
After market head unit-$200
After market rear speakers-$40
After market front speakers-$100
Subs not sure on price.
Some kindaliftkit.
Spray on bed liner-$500
After market Tail lights.
After market head lights.
Some kind of winch

The list could go on and on and on if i had time.

 

Im calling the second list a 'maybe' list cause if I find a 69' Chevelle SS and/or a bigger house for a good deal I'm done with my truck.

Within 1 year:
* Repaint rocker panels and bottom of bed sides with Chip-Guard or Rhino Liner
* Chrome Rear Diff Cover
* 285/70/17 Tires for my 17" Denali Wheels
* Flowmaster Muffler

Maybe:
* 4 inch suspension lift
* Cowl Hood
* Push Bar
* Crane Truck Cam
* 35" Tires (For the 17s)
* Custom Grill
* Custom Taillights
* Alpine everything.

 

I am $1400 or so into it so far, and have a long way to go. I too think there is no limit, just plan on keeping the truck to make up for the investment.

 

lets see...

exhaust (first time) $330
re-do exhaust (no cats and new tips) $120
K&N filter $60
airaid modular intake tube $100ish
Trans Dapt TBS $60
180 thermostat $20
Cobra 29 CB with PA and 4.5 ft whip $130

i never keep track on what i spend on my truck, plus i get alot of the stuff from my brother -he works at an auto accessory shop.
i have a to do wish list
