10 Cheap Car Mods
Were Japanese students more innovative with their car mods back in 2003? Imagine you just picked up your one owner, lightly used 180SX. You're out of money, but you wanna modify your car. Here's 10 insane, cheap car mods that students were making back in the day. One, this student modified his fender arches to make his car look lower. Who needs coilovers? Just lower your arches. Two, a modified Tier wing. He fabricated his own mounting stays and changed the height of the wing instead of buying a whole new one. Number three, the rear bumper from a Honda Odyssey was adapted to fit on a Sylvia here. Number four, rolling and pulling your fenders using a crescent wrench. I've seen a rank handle, but better this. Number five, using your windshield washer sprayers to spray onto your radiator to keep everything cool. Number six, this student used an aquarium thermometer instead of a car temp gauge to check his coolant temperatures. Number seven, if you want white gauges, this student used white out to paint his gauge faces instead of buying a sticker. He says the illumination still comes through. Number eight, this student used a bicycle grip on his handbrake and was able to choose a bunch of different colors to match his interior. Number nine, a super gauge pod was used in a 180 SX to mount his gauges. And number 10, in the last one, this student used duct tape as a heat shield in his engine bay. What's the craziest cheat mod you've done? Follow for more.
