do you think it's worth it?
 
Just wondering what you guys think:

I just had my car supercharged (EVO)

I'm ready to take it to the next level ie rims, front bumper and springs.

rims: champion RG5 rubber: ps2
front bumper: tech art 2 turbostyle with carbon fiber inserts
springs: H&R

it's gonna cost me roughly $19,000 painted, installed and aligned

the dealer says he's giving me a deal b/c I'm gonna let him borrow my car for the auto show

do you think it's worth it go all the way? I'm trigger shy at this point. $19K CDN (canadian) which is about 16K USD. still is a little bit of money. I own a c4 cab narrowbody.

bling, bling aside do you think it's worth it for the stuff i'm getting and the price I'm getting it for?

No way too much money, pm me and I will try and help you out with a) where to buys the parts b) where to get the stuff done.It sounds like the dealer is taking advantage.

that is definately way too much money work and parts. don't do it.....there are much cheaper avenues for the same mods.....

if u're gonna put that much money in it might as well get the right suspension set up. ditch the springs.

yes it did sound a little expensive.
the rims and rubber champions 19" cost almost 9.5K taxes in
I got a quote on HRE's and the rims alone almost cost $6800
remember this is all Canadian pricing.
