There is nothing wrong with wanting a car that matches your style and personality, but finding one is not always easy.
However, instead of hunting through car lots looking for the vehicle of your dreams, why not pimp your own ride?
Buying a car is a big deal. You have to consider how much spend on finances and other maintenance and repair costs, but the one thing that you should consider is how much money you’ll spend on making your car look fantastic. There are – of course – some rules surrounding what you can and cannot do to your car — no fire or spikes a la Grease, for example. But you can add an excellent ceramic pro to keep your paint of choice looking slick! So, with this in mind, let’s take a look at some of the most epic ways to pimp your ride and look great on the road.
- Start with your lights and change them up a little. You can go for a conversion kit that will turn your headlights into a flashing color show on the road, with blues red, purple and yellow lights that are interchangeable. Don’t want to change the bulbs? These fairy light stickers on your lights can shine through and make them look fun!
- Switch out your gear stick knob. It may not sound like much of a change, but if you want to make the interior of your car look good, think about changing out the knob to be a light-up skull, a pirate ship or even a clown!
- There’s nothing wrong with wanting to mix things up a little, and you can give your steering wheel a little personality when you add a new race car steering wheel to the inside of your car. However, before you make this kind of change, check the law because you will likely be left without an airbag. It’s not particularly safe!
- Car decals can change your car up with ease. The best thing is that you can change them as many times as you like. Too many decals are the epitome of tack, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t use them as a unique way to make your ride look more unique on the road.
- You cannot add spikes to the wheels, as we mentioned earlier. Instead, add spinners in the hubcaps and turn your boring car into something that makes people stop and stare. Of course, rims can get pricey, but this is why you find the most affordable options. Or save up to make your car come to life.
- Changing the license plates is a great way to pimp your car. Find a phrase online that works for your license (legally), and you can get them installed into your vehicle. Front and back plates need to be considered here as they have to match.
You want your car to look good, and that starts with knowing what you feel looks good. Check your budget next, then learn the laws that surround decorating your car.
