Very big. I estimate, if he paid for all the work to be done, $45K in mods alone.

Bloody gawdawffull, but you miss out not getting the ever popular Caliper Covers, an Wheelskin to show you got pimp on the back burner. All that crap (except the hood) can go in the dumpster along with the stock fivr spokes, which I Like, but not with all the exotic mods. Are you in Mexico, or PortoRica... it will go for biggie bucks.
