The new Aveo on town!!!
Hi My name is Ed I'm located in N. Carolina but actually I'm was born in Puerto Rico..... I used do all kind of works to Honda from lower to vynil application and then after that I got my hand into a 04 Aveo and the first thing that came to my mind is "DAMN" :shock: this car is looks like 4x4 so I decide to start doing something the first thing I did was get online and try to get some parts ...... but when the only thing that came for an aveo was springs I said WHHAATTT???? :cry: No that can't be and no money on hand I had to do something, I found a red can of spray from my last car so spray interior accesories to start ( sorry pic coming soon ) and then I look the exterior and paint the signal lights. Then I said I need fog ligths $50???? WHHAATT??? Got mine lights for $20 at Wal-Mart... Later looking tru my storage saw black and red transparent vynil and said "hey this can be worth it" so I took off the headlights, taillights, and rear little window and I wrapped and gave that unique look.. Once I finished said "Damn" is looking good ( front view of the car ) Undecided said "Grill off" ...Now good!!!!! Next low the car *Remember* NO MONEY custom cut spring front- back coming soon well so far I spent $2.50+ $20+ $10 hey not bad it equals to $32-$35 But we do what we can do....right??? Let me know what ya'll think..THANKS!!

Re: The new Aveo on town!!!
Cuttin Springs??? Old trick. Heard negative about the possible side effects.
SO...
I'm curious.
1 - How does it ride? How do you like the ride?
2 - How much did it lower?
3 - How much did you cut off?
4 - Did you just take a grinder to it?
Thanks
Jason

Re: The new Aveo on town!!!
I'm telling there some side effect ... well it bounce but not like a basketball ...lol. I might do the back this weekend. Might. Well I cut 2 lines and believe taking those curves at 60mph uffff is fun.... I can't wait to do the back as well. I slam the car b-cuz let me tell you 1. You feel the difference 2. You look good riding it 3. and 4 the envy people that said "can't do nothing to the Aveo" Well I keep upgrading the car and every time I do something people get amaze especially the Aveo's owner...they get curious and ask me how did I or where did I get the stuff for the car? I tell them I do it my self, and so far I've been getting good clients by the way. I want to finish getting the front lip, then the custom side skirts, and a surprise on the rear bumper you'll see the result. I'm trying to finish so I can go on a tour with my AVEO!!! :lol:

Re: The new Aveo on town!!!
I forgot to tell you there's 3 way to get it lower 1. old one you heard about it cut the springs, which I did (under budget) 2.heating the spring and compresed and 3. got money get the H&R springs. Is up to you whatever your choice make sure you get a picture and show me. :mrgreen:

Re: The new Aveo on town!!!
i completely agree with mike...cheaping out on important parts almost always leads to having to spend more money in the end

Re: The new Aveo on town!!!
That's why I'm saving for next summer I might do something crazy with the car. But for now keep it like that and chill what do you think?

your car looks good, especially for being a budget car with work done on a tight budget (like me and most everyone else here). but remember, if your going to do sumtin to ur car, do it right.
