Car mod ideas

okay..well recently i got a used 1999 Lexus ES300. i want to do some mods to the car, but just little exterior mods for looks since i am kind of short on cash. i was wonderin if anyone had any ideas. i searched on the internet for some help and didnt find crap so any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated! here's the only picture i have of the car..sorry for the crappy quality, i just got it off of the car listing the lady had on the internet:

When you say "short on cash," you gotta give some parameters. How much are you willing to spend?

I don't forsee much for that thing being cheap. Thats like a hopped up Camry. Probably involves some creativity and you must overnight parts from Japan.
Just go buy some nice detail products and get it all nice and clean.

yeah with only 200-300 bucks... i dont think there is too many things you can really do... just wait for a while till you got more income then start modding. Try finding a forum that has more info about your car

200-300 bucks?

you could probably buy some little interior stuff...ie: pedals, shift ****

or you could get a decent aftermarket deck

or you could just save it up and get something worth while later on, like rims

Porter Cable 7336 Dual Action Buffer 99dollars

Sonus DAS Pad Kit 49.95 dollars

Polishes of your choice 10-50dollars

Not having that dull finish anymore Priceless


spend that money and get it looking good as previously stated. 1999 Lexus prolly had a middle age man/woman that brought it through car washes, and swirled the hell out of it (only speculation)
