I'm new to the forum, check out the Aveo.

Hey everyone, my name is Jenny and I've been lurking around a while ago at Aveoclub.com when I stumbled upon this website and decided to join up. Well I bought my 2004 Chevrolet Aveo in 2007 with around 9K miles on her and since then I've been slowly been modding the car. I'll add more picture soon.

Exterior Modifications

Limo Tints, 8K HIDs, 17inch black wheels with orange lip(forgot brand), CAI, the rear drums got painted a gunmetal color and caliper soon to be orange which I already bought the stock paint from Chevrolet which I'm waiting on my boyfriend to do it. In the future I'm planning to niteshade the tailights leaving the clear part untouched and also the front parking lights and putting leds in it, maybe do a HID projectors retrofit and blackout the chrome bezel inside the headlights, add fog lights, paint the front Chevy bowtie and rear emblems black, try to find everything for the Kalos front conversion which includes the light, front bumper and grill and well these are my plans for now.

Interior Mods

Blue Dome 32 LED bulb, blue/green neon lights in the driver and passenger footwell, Pioneer deck with bluetooth connection and Pioneer speakers. In the future I'm thinking in replacing the stock bulbs in the cluster for blue leds, paint the thin line by the center bezel the same stock orange color and adding a white led in the trunk.

Here is a picture next to my boyfriend's car.

Those wheels with the painted lip look great on that colour Aveo - nice choice! (Was the lip painted to match the car or did they come that way?)

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the site. You got a nice looking car there.

Personal preference here, but in the above pic I think the tails look great as they blend in with the orange paint. Tinting them would make them stick out and kinda look odd.

Very nice Aveo, sounds like you've got the right idea about what you want to do with it. Welcome.

very nice aveo

Thank you and you're right that maybe looks way better to leave it the way it is now but since I got the black rims maybe it would look good as niteshading them but I'll have to do a photoshop to see how it looks.

Yeah I've done a lot of research and I have pretty big plan for the car though but everything has to come slow as the money comes though.

nice! i like wht u did so far. gud luck on ur future mods!

Very nice car... Are you planning on lowering it? The car will handle a bit better without sacrificing the ride quality much...

And if you're swapping all the outside turn signals/markers to LEDs, you might want to get one of the LED flasher relays from http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/ ... ashers.htm and the number our cars use is CF13GL-02. It says they're for German/European cars, but that's the only one on there that has the corresponding markings on the relay pins. Works well.

Are you planning to go with HID's for the fogs too once you install them? And if you do, are you matching them to 8K or 3K as the fogs should be? :D

And again - nice Aveo.
