Pimp Your Car with These Easy Tips

Whether you have an old car or a new one, you can always make it unique with a few customizations. Why would you want to limit yourself to driving a car that looks like a thousand others? That’s not you. So, go ahead and “pimp your ride” with these effortless methods:

Start Simple, Replace Headlights

One of the easiest and most inexpensive ways to upgrade your car, and make it look cooler at the same time, is to replace the headlights. Trade in your regular ones for HID light bulbs that illuminate the road like a supernova. Not only will this make night driving awesome, it’ll also bump up the resale value of your car.

Make ‘em Stare with Plasti Dip Colors

DIY-ers, this is for you. Coat your car with this amazing paint to make it shine above all others. Unlike traditional paint, Plasti Dip is easy to apply. And the breathtaking finish is to die for. It’s cheaper than powder coating, and you can choose to apply it for only one part of your car. There’s a huge variety of jaw-dropping Plasti Dip colors to choose from and the end result will make anyone with eyes do a double take.

Up Next, the Beats

If you truly want to pimp your ride, upgrading the sound system should be on top of your priorities. Even some new cars come with older stereo systems that your grandpa is probably familiar with more than you are. If you are really into music, you can install woofers all over the back seat. Otherwise, you should buy a stereo system with satellite radio, iPhone or smartphone integration and the ability to deliver a heart-thumping beat.

Bring Your Ride to the Present with Headrest Video

Your ride will never be pimped up until it has video screens inside. You should buy headrest mounts to hold portable DVD players or an iPad to stream Downtown Abbey on your way to Paris. You can definitely impress kids (if you have any), or any adult who knows what fun is.

Go High-Tech

Walking to the car and starting it manually is so 2014. Now you can remotely start your car, lock it, or even locate it if it’s stolen, by downloading an app onto your smartphone. If that’s not cool, then nothing is. The only con is that such systems tend to cost a bit (including guarantees). However, it’s well worth the price down the line, especially when you want to be really impressive on a first date.

Pimp the Steering Wheel

You may have seen those non-round, certainly weird-shaped futuristic steering wheels in sci-fi movies. Well, now they exist in real life. You can replace your boring, old steering wheel with a new one for less than £50. You can also buy steering wheel covers made of dyed leather, faux fur, sheepskin, etc. so you can look absolutely fabulous in a traffic jam.

Before you start pimping your car, make sure to fix any damages. Don’t overspend on ostentatious car upgrades, as most efficient customizations are easily affordable. No matter how much you pimp your ride, it won’t look good unless you properly maintain your car by regularly waxing and cleaning.
