    Remember when you were 16 with your first car? You walked into AutoZone, picked up some questionable underglow for your car, some plastidip, and an exhaust your parents forced you to take off. Good times, right? Well, we've all been there in our automotive life. Even if you never admit it, we're about to go through ten mods you either did or thought about doing when you were 16! Be honest and let us know which ones you were guilty of in the comments below!

      I straight piped my RX-7 with flex pipe from O'Reilly's after the mufflers rusted off, drilled holes in the air filter cover for more "airflow," and had blacklight LED's illuminating the subwoofer... at least I calculated the resistor values so they'd run on 12v before the days of automotive LED replacement bulbs. 😆

      @Markus Patients dude I got a shit box Honda and the number of bolts that come from the factory on that car is already small how can you lose any more and still have a car? I had to take the door card off because when I brought it it came with 2 extra bolts, a cube of foam and a broken driver window. It wouldn't open. Apparently that is because the crane lifting the window is broken, so the dealership unscrewed the window and stuck a pvc pipe in there to hold it closed. And the pipe won't let the foam cube designed to stop rattles fit anymore, so they stuck an old sweatshirt in there.

    My first car was a 1995 Pontiac Sunfire. Metallic pink. YUCK. I decided to spray paint the car lime green like Paul Walker's Eclipse. It turned out just how you would think spray painting a car in the hot sun in front of your parent's house would turn out. Eventually I got sick of the green and decided to go matte black, but this time with a roller and a gallon of outdoor house paint. Now this was actually pretty sweet because if I ever got a door ding in a parking lot, I would just open what was left of my gallon paint can, and paint right over the scratches. Eventually I saved up enough money to get a "professional" paint job from Maaco and the car got rear ended a week later.

      Back in the 1970s, we had a kid in my high school paint his car with a paint roller.
      It actually looked fairly good. It hid a lot of the rust and was a more even color than kids who painted their cars with cans of spray paint.

    @Adamg97 Před 2 lety +1

    My first car was a 97 328i sedan automatic. I loathed that it was an automatic, so I took the shifter trim off and installed a boot to "hide" the fact that it was auto. Also, plasti dipped the factory 15" wheels, put fake M badges everywhere, had an autozone cone filter for the intake, installed cheap eBay headlights, blacked out half the tail lights, and installed cheap speakers that sounded terrible.
    Now I'm back in a 97 328i sedan, but its manual swapped. Also installed BC coilovers, Bavsound speakers, glass headlights, and spent the rest of my money actually fixing everything and eliminating all the leaks.

    Jesus dude, I am in my 50's and went to a vocational school for automechanics. I think I could write a book on the stupid stuff I did lol. When I grew up we still had carbs, most cars didn't have fuel injection yet. And a lot of us had muscle cars from the 60's and 70's. A big thing was putting too large of a carb for the camshaft. Or using adapter plates to put a 4 barrel on a 2 barrel manifold and not changing anything in the engine. Or worse yet buying a performance manifold and carb but not changing the cam or anything else to support it. Or putting the wrong cam or too large of a cam in your engine and making it useless for daily driving or using the wrong headers for the application. I also pulled the whole exhaust off my 72 buick and put in dual straight pipes. Killed my torque and actually made the car slower lol. I put a hood scoop on my car and had it painted. It ended up cracking and looking like crap. It also made my engine really dirty and took longer to warm up. Didn't help the performance at all either. Didn't make it worse really, but it didn't help much. I put hood pins on my car and removed the OEM hood latch system. My dad told me not to, I did it anyway. Someone pulled the clips off while I was in a store and I didn't know it. Yep, my hood flew up at 40 mile an hour while I was driving home and destroyed it. On the upside it got rid of my hood scoop lmao.
    With newer cars I fell for the cold air intake thing and wasted my money on that. Didn't help the performance any but made it sound like a vacuum cleaner or something. Muffler deletes, cat deletes and cheap performance mufflers that made my v-6 or 4 cylinder sound like a swarm of angry bees. And again made the car perform worse. Car companies actually spend a lot of money to design an exhaust that is quiet and performs well. Then we mess it all up thinking we can do better than a team of engineers. 9 times out of ten we don't.
    I have also seen people try to do things right, but still mess it up simply because they chose the wrong parts. Like using a camshaft and headers designed for circle track use. They are designed to make horse power at wide open throttle at high rpms. They are horrible for street driving and will actually make your slower off the line. I always tell people to go with the street/strip version of something and not the "race" version. It will work much better for daily driving. With muscle cars we always said build for torque, not horsepower. That is the power you can feel when driving around. Unless you are running really low gears, but that sucks for daily driving too. I built a car for the drag strip once and tried to drive it daily. It was fast, but you couldn't drive it in the rain without sliding all over, it was extremely loud and hot and it got 6 freaking miles to the gallon lol. And my top speed was 130 mph. It would do it in like 11 seconds but that was as fast as it would go without blowing it up. And I got beat on the highway by a ford toraus sho! That was humbling let me tell you.

    Never had cheap headlights. Although I've just bought tinted taillights for my A4 B5, and don't know if I like it yet lol.
    Uhh I almost forgot what the previous owner did!
    -Removed air filter box and the heatshield for it, replaced with a cone filter which is now slightly melted because of the lack of shielding: it's a really well made hot air intake.
    -"Upgraded" the front position lights to LED, and only the positioning bulbs.
    -Filled LITERALLY half the trunk with a ported box that fits two 10" units (tbh, it's actually quite nice).
    -Plasti dipped the rims, and now it's all cracked: my friends call them spiderman rims.
    -Removed a vacuumline to the DV so it'd make a cool turbo stutter.
    -Straight piped the resonator from 2" pipe, to 3", back to 2", presumably made by a "welder". After looking at it from under a lift, I'm pretty sure the welder was blind and or had no hands.

    never forget the 99 sentra i had when i was 17 and i bought the $40 amazon special lowering springs, they were like a 1/4 the size of the stock ones and disassembling the strut and spring in the driveway with some buddies from high school watching the top hats luanch across the road as we just impacted them off. after all said and done it did look good sitting on the street but lord it was the bounciest ride id ever been in. on top of that found some cheap 2 in wheel spacers i put on the stock wheels for the stance. end of the day the ball joins were ruined. the stock struts were ruined. and then i put red led strips under the seats that i wired the power cable up to the subs i had to make them flash to the bass. after it was all said and done i was under the car with a hacksaw taking the muffler off.
    dont do it kids. just wait til you save enough up to put the nice parts on.

    I heated up the springs on a 1973 240Z to drop one coil. That car handled amazingly well after that. On my first car in high school in the early 80s (yeah im old) they came out with spray tint. Yes, window tint in a spray paint can. My best friend and I tried it on our cars and it was a disaster. Those were the days!

    2004, I had a 1997 Ford Contour SE. Mesh grille from auto zone, debadged it only to find out the fenders had holes below the badges so I installed clear marker lights from Autozone to cover the holes. I also had the fake intake from, you guessed it, autozone, oh and some random muffler I won in a raffle at a car show that I had my local exhaust shop install. Topped it all of with a set of Chrome Focal F5 wheels, yeah I was killing it
