This is one of those topics best left alone... All I can say is, "My name is Cliff. I am a Jeepaholic."

I now really hate the original poster lol. I hadnt added this up before, in the 6 months since I have had the Jeep I have spent $3755.

And that doesnt cover the tools I have bought to do some work....this thing is more expensive then my Harley lol.

~ $14K more or less as it sits now.

Researching exactly what I want for the next round of mods come February. I'm getting close to the $3k mark for how I want the front end (bumper/winch/lights/etc).

That will leave an OBA system to do and possibly the RIPP kit and headers (~$7K)

#1 thing is I'm single.
#2 crap load of overtime last year
#3 work for a company that pays out profit sharing and actually made a profit last year.

I think we should have a self help portion of this forum for those of us with uncontrollable modding

Close to one thousand dollars... But I was really lucky, it already came with the coil suspension lift, 35" tires, and 18" rims. The roof rack I got for only $80 (installed) from the dealer, so I figured why not? I got the '09 JK for a real good deal...$24,400 considering it only had 14,000km on it. I plan to get the RR XHD front and rear modular bumpers next and maybe some black rims like the Procomp 8069's.
