That and like 32valvesftw said above, raising a few eyebrows on the road is never a bad deal either. Need to save my pennies for one of those Haibeck 510 packages...
The most cost effective approach is to buy one already done rather than pay for the work later. As noted before, I would suggest one of the lower production later year cars to minimize depreciation or actually get some appreciation in a few years, not to mention minimizing maintenance..--Bob
