These are just a few ideas to help you "re-vamp" your car.. I did them, and now I'm just sharing it.. it may be ghetto to some, but that's the beauty of D.I.Y.. you do it YOUR way..

*Old looking windscreen wipers could be "re-vamped" by taking them off, give them a good wipe with alcohol, then spray them over with any colour of your choice.. in my case, I used satin black straight from a can..


*Old looking sideskirts and door moulds, my solution was to wipe them down with bug & tar remover, then alcohol, then I went over it a few times with shoe polish!.. the stuff that comes in a bottle with that little foam thing on the end for application..
I applied 2 coats, let it dry a little, wiped it down then applied another coat..


*As you noticed, my fuel hatch is also black.. yes, I also sprayed that because I thought it was "cool" to attach a sticker there.. few years later, beeyatch wouldn't come off, so I sanded it down, applied a few coats of satin black from a can then a few clear coats over the top..

*Changed my cluster lights to LED's.. used blue.. they're alot brighter when you're actually there.. it's not very bright in the picture! I used 1 T10 and 5 T5 inverted led's..


*Inside looking a little dull and boring?.. "Re-vamp" it up with some colour!!.. I've sprayed my vents, inside door trims and speaker covers.. I primed them with some Plastic Adhesion Primer, then gave it a few even coats of the colour of my choice.. I use to have blue, then Machinery Grey, and now it's finally black.. the paint I used is Vinyl Paint..
Blue:

NB: Disregard the drunk guy.. only picture I had with Blue in the car..

Spraying it black:


*DIY black housing headlights and a lip also makes a deal of difference..


Well, that's all for now.. next things to go on the car are foglights and a civic type-R spoiler! These are just some of the simple things I wanted to share with you guys.. it's effortless and easy, and so not time consuming..
