want to customize my first new car Accord 2012 LXS Coupe
 
I bought a silver accord I'm 19 and I'm happily paying for it :) I want to however make.it my own by customizing it I already plastic dip the Honda.and accord emblem on the back the car is all else stock. I can spend a maximum of 1000.00 dollars what do you think I can get for it. I want people to look at my car on the streets and be like that's nice!

same age as you buddy so we probably similar ideas. first off, do not paint or plasti-dip your rims because it takes away that mature look that we spent alot of money for shah. best bet wait on the rims if you were thinking it! for a thousand you can really spiff it up! first thing i did was tint the windows, and taillights ( not dark.. i got 40%) i ordered a Takeda Short ram intake. the car sounds like a beast already with that engine so the takeda intake will add 8-10 whp and will give it a more aggresive growl. thats around 230 ish, maybe more i forget. next get a good set of HID's i got the 8000K with the 2x blue added so its blue blue aha. so far your around 400. already people are turning there heads. next you could plasti-dip your emblems and grill/ trim. if your into lowering your car that could come down the line cuz that will put you a little over 1000 lol . you could get new speakers and add a sub so you can jam out in your car or a nice borla or magnaflow exhaust!!!

I don't understand. You bought a 2012 and want to stand out in the crowd, but you bought a car that everyone in the crowd has... oh well.. I can accept that.

now.. lets see what you can do for making it unique.

1. tinting the windows a bit.. adds looks and not gaudy...good choice
2. check with accessories that are offered at the dealership. These are your best quaility upgrades in looks in my cases.
3. wheels.. if not already upgraded, will add a nice "unique" look

good luck!... enjoy your new ride and have fun.
