My Mom was against me buying my 6th gen from the very start because i guess she wanted me in a 7th gen from the very beginning. My dad didnt even want me to buy it because it was a v6 and i should have been drivin a civic or something. I Got it despite them both not liking my car at all even though they are not economical with there cars for example they drive a toyota land crusiser and a s class 500 they want me to drive a civic that is some bs. As all the mods I bought they always would tell me why did you spend more money on that car. (They know about my tranny problem) When i got my fog lights they still were trippin even though they cost 20 dollars but i dont car i will do what i want. As far as the gf she feels i spend to much time on it.
putting it nicely my dad thinks that ghetto ****, and my mom doesnt really care what i do to my car. when i first got my springs i had them for about a month before my dad noticed them sitting in my car, he had a fit saying that i wasnt gonna put them on and all this crap cuz its "his" car. he got over after a couple days and me constantly telling him "its my car ill do what i want" when it came down to putting them on the car he was really helpful. 
i dont think he cars anymore, but we'll see when i buy my next mod.

at first my rents were against it but i just kept buying it anyways and as time went on they didnt like it but they didnt really care for it anymore. Now since my car is back to stock they dont give a **** anymore lol. As for my ex she said "its a little cute rice burner" shes into the domestic car scene so i dont think she likes it as much i guess thats why shes an ex lol.

Depends on what age. 9 years ago, my dad would get so pissed. My brother bought a lowed car with alot of suspension problems and my dad told me if i lowered my car EVER, he would never help me out financially on anything, EVER.
Fast forward 9-10 years...Now that i have been into it for soo long, he knows i just won't keep anything stock. I think he has figured out that, first, it's a part of me. Second, the few times he has had to drive my car (mostly when i jack his), i think he is surprised that all this actually works. BUT, i think the main factor is that i have only taken any car i own to the shop twice ever. I learned to fix soo much in the process that it's unnecessary. I'm unwilling to do a clutch on my car because of downtime. I have done it on other cars though, i just don't have time, that's the one thing that i'm going to a shop for.
Don't get me wrong, my dad still thinks its dumb, a waste of money, but he has done very minor after market things to his s2000 on my advice and has been very happy. I think he realizes now, there are quality products, you just have too look. So, yeah, he gets more and more supportive, but very slowly.
My mom doesn't care at all. I showed her pictures my accod stock and now, she said "i can't see the difference". She just figures, "it's your money".
