Hello from Darren in Perth

Postby Jimmy Dean » Wed Jul 16, 2014 1:36 am

Hey guys, I'm going to be taking delivery of a MY14.5 ES Sport Sedan in White on Thursday. It's no Ralliart, and the decision came out of no where from the powers that be, but I've got to admit that I love the look of it and I'm really excited to get behind the wheel!

I found this forum a couple of days ago, and I was pleasantly surprised to find such a knowledgeable and friendly group of people, passionate about their cars.

I'm not gonna be in it to fiddle with it much mechanically, but I'm looking forward to tweaking the appearance and adding some personality and edge to it.

I'm lucky the MY14.5 has the Ralliart front bumper, skirts, spoiler and chrome tip as standard, so a little instant cred from the get go. Can't wait to add more!

I can't offer much in the way of car knowledge, but as per my interests and work, I'm somewhat of an expert on jewellery and watches. PM's welcome. I'm keen to give back to the community in any way that I can

Ooo - you definitely came to the right place! :-D You can do an awful lot without altering the mechanicals (although a slight tweak to the exhaust note never hurts!)

Luckily you've got Akram over there, who is the current king of mods...


Enjoy!

Welcome Darren!

I've done a fair bit of aesthetic changes to my RA as I don't want to tamper with my warranty after some early issues I experienced. Have a look in my garage and get your ideas flowing!

I was Googling about the car and for things I can do to it, and pretty soon it was clear that this was the place with the best and most comprehensive info!

This was my thinking also, don't wanna mess with the warranty - plus mechanical mods are pretty pricey for a student away from home. But I'll take a look, thanks!

I would be staying away from mods for time being if your a student. Save it for when you have finished studying as a reward. Take the time to think about what you want to do. I kept my car stock for the first year and was glad.

You can't go wrong with super bright led internal light upgrade. $25 and they just slot in. Has a good effect at night :-)
