Bone Stock,
As a self employed professional, you certainly know you have to take what you hear with a grain of salt. The dissatisfied customers are always the most vocal (I could tell you a story about how 632 happy customers can't speak as loud as 1 unhappy one). The internet has become a place where people say and do things "online" that they wouldn't do in person and this discussion board has followed suit. You should not base your entire opinion on this. Go to some VCA meetings, check out some cars and the upgrades in person.
There are a lot of good parts and people in the Viper community. Most of us who are in it do so because we like the cars and the people. I think if you were serious about doing upgrades, whether it was for performance, durability or comfort, you would call the vendors and speak with them directly. If you've already done this and still feel like your going to get screwed, that's unfortunate.
