Hello all!

So i'm pretty new to all of this, but looking around at all the deingetly Elantra's I'm pretty excited to see how amazing they can look. I own at 2005 Elantra GLS its an automatic in Tidal Wave (I would put up pics... but I definetly haven't figured out how to do that yet), nothing has been added to it excpet the CD deck and i'm looking to change that over time. I was hoping that I could get some opinions on stuff i can do to make my car look better. If you have anything in mind just let me know! Thanks for the help!

Tint is a good start, if you don't have it:

After:

Also: Lowering springs and rims (I have yet to do that)

What do you like?

Basic mods include OEM foglights, KDM clear bumper lights, a spoiler, tinted windows, different front grill. More expensive mods like lowering springs and wheels also help the look. Good luck.

And there are aftermarket foglights that can be made to look very OEM for a fraction of the cost:

Clear sidemarkers from www.dreamka4u.com

Make a huge difference in how the car looks for only $20

are you going for any type of performance or just looks? You could go with an eBay SRI (short ram intake) for $40 bucks shipped and the sound is 400x better plus it makes the engine bay look better
