    Help me make a boring car less boring. This build might go nowhere, it certainly won't get crazy.

    I'm looking for a light dose of mods on a college budget. So no, I'm not lowering an economy car and putting a body kit on it. But maybe some tasteful things here and there.

    Here it is in all it's bland glory, I'm open to tips on where to start.

    Tint is the first on the list. I just got a new car and had it tinted 3 days later. Makes a HUGE difference.
