What Would You Do Make This Car Look Sexy? ('85 Corolla)

[levvyy]

Hi, i'm Levi, i'm new.

 

So I just bought my first car for $112 lmao.

Was going for a mitusbishi Fto, but realised that would be written off within a week.

Decided on a corolla.

Cheap, reliable, and i wont worry about little scratches.

 

But i hate the look of these black bumpers etc.

What could I do to it?

I'm thinking repaint, put on ok kit on it (could someone recommend somewhere that sells 1985 kits? can't find any), maybe some rims.

 

 

Thanks :hmm:

You can get colour coded bumpers but not for that series/colour. SSV sell skirts that look nice and clean for this car but again they're in the twincam white or red. They make good first cars though, just don't worry too much about power. Suspension and some good brake pads, and all new fluids will make her sweet. Can get a lot of nice rims too.

Make it a purely audio mobile, with some lightning bolt graphics and just an insane stereo.......not being a tool...would be pretty cool

Rims, tints, stereo. Done. Oh and a few rollaclub stickers :hmm:

remove engine and put a 3sgte in

First car I wouldn't worry too much! They end up pretty ragged if you're doing it right. Maybe source some twin cam mags, maybe spoiler etc if you're going to paint it. Otherwise I'd probably just do rims and keep it tidy.

Series 1 CSX / Twincam rims, or AE93 SX rims. JDM AE86 steering wheel or twincam AE82 wheel. Damn good tyres with correct wheel alignment, service, stereo and that is all. Spend all your money on a second car (rear wheel drive corolla, forget the Mitsubishi crap).

 

Colour coded bars would look shit, give your current bars a hit with armor-all when you put a tidy set of rims on it, and you'll see there's no need for a kit.

A hot girl draped over the bonnet would work for me :hmm:

I think you just nailed it there Ken!!!!

Stuff that either 2vz, 3vz, 1mz or the 2mz

 

But all honesty if its your first car, i wouldn't be really going all that far in mods. Just keep it all basic and simple

Raise it 20 inches and drop the shell onto a suzuki 4WD chassis with truck stack pipes.

munch ya springs. take of your hub caps and paint your steelies and cut n polish the paint and get a couple cans of white paint and spray the ugly bumpers... thats what ild do : )
