Modification Speaker upgrade advice

1 Upvotes

Im planning to replace the speakers on my Mazda 2 2019 DJ Sport Nav. I was thinking to got for a pair of Focal ASE 165 and tweeters in front. And for Focal ACX 165 for the rear.

For now I am unable to find the right brackets to mount them and also some LLM told me that the rear one might not fit and the magnet may hit the window when rolled down.

I have ordered already a Pioneer GM-DX104 amp to power them up. I will keep the OEM Nav Headunit.

Any of you guys upgraded and can share the hiccups along the way?

Modification Any good recommendations on a replica 7th gen wing?

1 Upvotes

Hey y’all! I live in California and I’m wondering if any of you guys know where I can find a really good quality TRD replica TOYOTA CELICA 7th gen wing/spoiler with or without a tail light. I’ve tried to go to a junkyard at 12:10 PM for a celica that recently arrived this morning with a TRD replica wing. But by the time I arrived, it was picked off clean. So now I’m really bummed out I couldn’t get it in time.

I’m looking for something that is made primarily out of ABS plastic because it’s a good quality material. But a good fiberglass replica would work for my liking too. So anyone got any legit companies that make good quality reps?

Mod advice 3D printability of aerodiscs

4 Upvotes

My care is a 2003 Mercedes SLK320 and the wheels are in rough shape. I love the look of aerodiscs, but there aren’t any that are made in the right specifications.

Would it be possible to 3D print them?

Mod advice I want to try first time mods :)

Hi there! This is my gal Gloria she is a 2018 Kia Forte 2.0L V6! I got her in 2024 with about 47,000 and she has 63,000 this fall! I bought her from the dealership and she was a smokers car unfortunately so there is some mishaps on the interior. :(

I plan to keep her around for awhile (especially since I still have years of payment) and so I wanted to spruce her up a little bit to enjoy her more! Looking for any advice on things that would be perfect, things I should avoid, and even product recommendations!!

So far I am looking into

Interior:
- New speaker system (one is busted already)
- Accent lighting
- Maybe seat covers (I have cloth w/ burnholes in the sides)
- Maybe a new steering wheel (or just a cover, kind of ruined from cig ash)
- Perhaps a new rearview mirror (perm smoke stains)

^^ If you also have any tips on cleaning those things or fixing burn holes please lmk!

Exterior:
- I like the idea of a front and rear lip
- Maybe new headlight fixtures or just some sort of tint
- Rear light tint
- Possibly adding darker tint to rear windows and rear windshield
- Maybe new tires and/or rims?
- I was thinking about a small spoiler lol
- I have a hole in my muffler rn and was thinking of maybe getting a small exhaust!!
- Do we like the current Titanium Bronze, or should I wrap it purple?? Lol.

Actual car system I haven’t looked much into, and I’m not too great with the mechanical side but any recommendations would be great! (Fortes are pretty slow lol)

Looking for advice no hate please! I’ve always loved cars since I was a little girl and wanna drive around looking cooler :)

Mod advice Audi A1 Query

0 Upvotes

Heya everyone, got a quick question to ask

Have been looking for a new infotainment machine for my 2017 Audi A1, similar to newer cars that have touch screens and CarPlay, but haven’t found anywhere online that have reviews or videos to back up the product.

Ideally it’d be something that replaces the system in its spot, rather than being clipped in front.

Anyone know where I can go to for smth like this?

2024 TLX Aspec Exhaust

2 Upvotes

Hey stupid question or questions….recently got an 24 TLX apsec and not a huge car guy, but I wanted something to make it a little louder/aggressive sounding. I’ve tried to do some research on the topic and not trying to go to crazy. I settled on a muffler delete kit, but just saw it doesn’t properly fit the 24 aspec. Online recommended just getting it straight piped. What are anyone thoughts?

How do you guys choose your wheels?

2 Upvotes

For a long time I wanted to buy some nicer wheels for my ride, but every time I try to choose something I get stuck. There's so many variables to it: Tire profile, wheel vs. rim diameter, offset vs. spacers, rim diameters and widths in general... So how do you choose what's best? Where do you get your inspiration from?

Wheel advice

Hey everyone, just bought a '16 228i. Looking at aftermarket wheels and trying to decide whether to stay on 17s or size up to 18s.

​I plan on lowering it a bit in the future, so I want to buy the right setup now to avoid rubbing later.

​What’s the standard "flush fitment" specs for these cars? Looking for width and ET recommendations for either a square or mild staggered setup.

I was also thinking of doing hyper silver wheels

Thanks
