Sound deadener, and installed a backup camera.

 

 

changed the guage and interior lights to blue. might change again to red.

 

How did you change the color? I've been wanting to do that.

 

Steering wheel cover. tricky to install.

 

Chrome handles

 

painted with vinyl paint. I changed my mind on #2

 

 

I removed all the factory speakers and tweeters and swapped them all for Pioneers. I do not know how to install subs and amp and wiring and ****, but I desoldered the factory connector on the old factory speakers and soldered them onto the new speakers and they work fine, and I had them like that for 5 years so far. the tweeters however came with little capacitors you gotta solder them to but that was easy.

 

I changed the old brake rotors and brake pads for drilled and slotted rotors and Akebono brake pads that Scotty reccommended. Still going strong 5 years later.

The old Rotors and Brake pads

Oh yeah, and I painted my calipers with VHT high heat paint. Primer, paint, clear. All high-heat rated.

 

I ultimately upgraded the radio to a touch screen with gps, dvd, and bluetooth. In the middle I had a single-din radio from amazon (which worked very well) and was paired with a little single-din drawer.

 

Looking good. Keep it up.

 

up next is lowering springs, new struts, and a transmission cooler

 

Is this your first time for new struts? Which kind are you going to get? I have an 07 Accent SE.

 

Megan Racing Lowering Springs Installed. Originally, I almost bought Blue Manzo ones but they were sold out last minute.
I hear they are the exact same and owned by the same company too.

 

Metal Fuel door off of a 2009 that fits my 2008 and replaces my plastic fuel door. I stripped it to the bare metal and polished to a mirror finish as best as I could. I have not installed it yet because I feel I can get a better shine & I'm going to redo it.

I had it disassembled for sand & polish

 

That looks great!
