Greetings Perth-Wrxlings

Now, I know that if you spend a shitload of money on your car - you expect it to look good & I am of the opinion of that with a limited budget & clever mods you can have a car that looks good ( not stock ) and wont cost you a 2nd mortgage.

For me, I have spent approx $1.5k on my car appearance wise ( excluding services/consumables) and i think that my car is looking quite ok, dare i say it, Good.

So i am interested to see what other people have done/could do with the same money.

Conditions:
You start with a stock WRX - same model as the one you currently own/owned.

You Can Spend the money on anything but the car will be assessed off how it looks purely.

$1500 is a guide for what you can "spend"

If you can photochop these things onto your car - Sweet.
if your car looks the same way with the mods you are/have put on. Post them up.
If you have no pics but can describe what it looks like - Awesome.

But Basically I'm looking to see to get peoples imagination going with a limited budget, what can you do to get a car that looks tasteful and tidy.
There will be no judges but other members of the forum - read: this is a freeforall.

Im of the opinion that cars are great fun and we should all have more money to spend on them but situation/conditions/wives normally stop us from going completely off the chain.

So Post up what you've done, some pictures, descriptions, approx costing.

Post Away!

Master D

ok here goes, on my current car

Springs = $350 - DIY install
Whiteline camber bolts + roll centre kit = $280
Alignment = $80
Front Lip = $220 (Got that for a bargain)
Tint = $90 (front windows only to match privacy glass rear)
Exhaust = $450 (as it stands now)
Repaint Rims = DIY $50 max

Total = $1520

Pretty hard to make a car look great for $1500...at the bare minimum you need a lip and some lowering plus tint....

Best bang for your buck would be getting some rotas with decent offset....but then you would need lowering and possible camber adjustment...

so post it like other have above and see if it comes in under budget :-D

Take WRX to closest VW Dealership, trade it and use $1500 on a deposit for a Golf R

/flamesuit on

LOL It's cosmetic.

Lose the RCK, Exhaust and alignment Spend money elsewhere.
