I have been there, done that, got several t-shirts to prove it and NEVER will do it again! I will now limit any mods I do to 15% of the purchase price of the car or truck. If that doesn't get it to where I want it, I probably bought the wrong vehicle.
I spent an insane amount of money on my WRX to make it a little rocket car. Then took the MB to Brabus and spent more money on mods for the MB than I did to original purchase my WRX. After a bit cars become a hole you just throw money into. Now I look for upgrades that I might be able to transition to another car later on to help justify them or at least sell some stock stuff to help fund the new add-ons.
At least with wheels and tires I didn't get killed to upgrade as I got decent money out of my old ones. That helped offset the cost of my new ones a bit. So at 5k out of pocket no more mods for the FJ. I can still squeeze in OME springs for the front, TRD supercharger kit (if I do the work), intake and exhaust and possible an upgraded stereo and then I am done. You almost never get any money back on the mods you do so unless I really want/need it, I don't do it anymore. I can't see putting to much money in a non-appreciating asset.
