checked myself into rehab today

MOD Rehab. Why would i drop money into a loaded,150 K Turbo S only a few weeks after delivery? Because i am (was) a mod addict.Those car meetups, auto websites , and magazines only added to my disease. I am dealing with tough withdrawl ,as we speak, not calling that wheel company or porsche specialist leaving my credit card number and spending thousands of dollars on my grim looking turbo S cab with CGT wheels, sport shifter, X50, PPCB Brakes, and aluminum interior.
What conversation will i have left with my 6speed buddies and local car enthusiasts when we meet up?
My biggest problem is going to be not dealing with having all the stock parts for the buyer of my car in years to come. it will be too smooth and i won't have to buy stock parts to deliver the car stock for my buyer. SH-T, i am f-cked...

Please help me..... my car is stock..i am having DT's..... someone please get me an aftermarket exhaust..i won't tell....

Hey, I've heard the first step in solving a problem is admitting you have it in the first place. While I've always known you've had one, now it's nice that i know that you know that you have one. B/C I'm going to help you out, I've got a whole bunch of stock car parts lying around (lesson here if you look) which we could arbitrarily put on your car from time to time. Hey, you know only good things happen when we work on your car at my place. Does anybody know where the radiator is on a Turbo S Cab?

Admiting you have a problem is the first step. Now, you have to get an exhaust system we cant have you doing this thing cold turkey now can we?

Wait a minute, does that mean he hasn't cancelled the order? I knew you couldn't go cold turkey!
