I didn't spend like you, but turning my used Steelie into a "car replacement" I spent more on aftermarket than the bike, which was a bone stock '87 sport tourer. just on racks and fenders I spent about what I paid for the bike. plus bar, baskets, freewheel, long cage RD, pedals, saddle etc. To truly sort the gearing I still need a smaller BCD crank and I'd love to get a dyno hub but we'll see.
