Bought the car in Summer of 2007 for my first car. It had just peaked 100k and was completely stock when I bought it:
Then I went to making a mesh grill and installing foglights:
I didn't have much money, so went the route of painting the wheels rather then buying new ones:
Wasn't too happy with how the red came out, so ended up painting them all anthracite.
Next was IPD's sidemarkers and clear corners:
About this time I ran off the road while doing some regrettable drifting in the rain. Busted the belly pan, curb rashed a wheel, and left the bumper hanging. Spent the weekend fixing all these things and then I got a good deal on a 940 wing and free decor panel, so painted both of those flat black to match my fading bumpers and slapped them on:
Got two new cars, an 1800E and ES parts car so the 940 was put on hold for a while:
Next I got a VDO boost gauge and made my own pod on the steering wheel cover:
My car was hit by some girl at my school in her '09 VW Bug Convertible and they sped away. It scraped the rear bumper up and moved my car up a foot, while it was in park! So I fixed the scratch and painted the bumpers with Krylon Fusion:

Located some Mille Miglia II's for cheap ($200) and put them on with some expensive Michelin's to replace my old Adhara's:
Got some 960 tails:
