2005 Hyundai Elantra GLS
Automatic
2nd owner
Bought at 40k miles in October of 2009
Currently at 90.7K miles

Current mods:
Clear corner headlights with chrome bulbs.
Clear sidemarkers.
Clear doormarkers.
Flat black grille.
Tint 55% sides 35% rear (Legal limit in VA, but thinking of redoing it and going darker.)
Debadged.
Redoing third brake light mod in a different fashion soon
NGK wires/Iridium Plugs
Shorty antenna.
19.2mm (Green Dot Tiburon Rear Sway Bar)with Moog endlinks.

Currently on the way:
Waiting for the shop to call me about scheduling a day to fix hail damage. ):

Next on the list (unspecific order):
OEM Fogs (asap)
Coilovers by (hopefully) the end of May.
SRI
LED switchover.
Red LED gauge cluster.
HID conversion.
E-brake/Auto shifter mod.
Rear disc swap.
Lowering springs.
Motegi rims.
Taillight blackout mod.
Rear Window spoiler/Trunk spoiler.
Lip kit of some sort.
Black matte vinyl wrap? (Summer)

And before anyone says anything, I know I need rims. Pretty badly. But considering I am attending my third college, I will continue to be a broke college kid and those plus a paint job will have to wait. Until I get a job while at college, there isn't much I can do but cheap mods (Thus just flat blacking the steelies and hubs).








Before the shorty Antenna.




Changing out the Sway bar. Before:

Here's the most recent photo of how he stands today:

Hey Jess just letting you know this part of the forum is sort of an archive, although from time to time people post here.

We have a Gallery where you can post pics in your member album and a Garage to post detailed info on your mods.

Nice car by the way. thumbsup.gif

Really nice -- I love the all-black look. Glad to see tail lights mod was on the todo list. I think that will make a big difference.

Thank you! I wasn't trying to go for the blacked-out look, but it just happened that way. I, too, think that once I black the tails to blend better it will change the look overall for the better. Now to find a way so that VA cops don't make me undo it.

Im sorry, I misunderstood. It's all back up.

I have a garage that I'm still working on adding all of the mods to.

QUOTE (TCInfantino)
I went to this meet/party, and it was great! I have been to many different car shows, meets, and cruises, and this was the best meet I have been to. A big thanks to Mike and his wife, and everyone who contributed to putting this thing together.
