First of all, congratulations on buying a used vehicle. While new cars offer a certain status, buying a used car can give you all the quality without all of the price. A newer model that is even one year old will cost you significantly less than buying one brand new out of the factory. With the money you save, you can now work on accessorizing your vehicle to make it your own in looks and/or style. For lists of accessories, click here.

Inexpensive Accessories Can Make a Big Difference

Perhaps you aren’t interested in lowering your car to the ground or chopping the roof. Even a new high-quality exterior paint job may be out of the question when it comes to your current budget. But it’s still possible to make little changes that will shine up your ride with only a small financial outlay. Interior trim can be replaced, or consider painting the dashboard and other plastic parts to match or complement the exterior color. A new steering wheel cover (or steering wheel) as well as upholstery covers to hide torn or grungy fabric also help turn the interior into a new space. Spruce up the look with new wheels or shiny rims.

Exterior Color Changes

If you really want to take a stock car and turn into something that reflects your style and personality, there are multiple methods for doing so. One of the quickest ways to do this is have the exterior covered in a fresh new coat of paint in your favorite color, to which you can add graphics, pinstripes, flames, or other personal touches. You can also get a car wrap, which is significantly cheaper than repainting and which can be removed when it’s served its purpose; remember that you don’t have to be advertising a company in order to benefit from a wrap’s graphic capabilities.

High-End Upgrades

There are now several television shows that feature standard—even boring—cars getting a facelift and turned into something fantastic and unique. High-end upgrades like suspension changes, new grilles, or extensive changes in the body will make your vehicle one-of-a-kind. Sometimes customization looks expensive without being expensive, as is the case when you have metal parts chromed.
