      Wtb springs, arm rest, aftermarket stuff

      Recently acquired my wife's aveo, after totalling out my yaris. It's an 06 sedan, Maroon. Looking to make it look a little less like an aveo. Looking for a new front grill, aftermarket heads and tail lights, an arm rest, lowering springs, and just about an other accessory that would look good.

      Ill try to check this daily in case somebody has something. I'm located in northwest arkansas.

      Thank you

      Just take the front chevy badge bar off.
      Looks a lot better.
      There's two things you can do for the sedan headlights.
      Joey mod. (Where you paint the chrome on the inside of the assembly, most paint it black, but I've seen people color match their car or completely different)
      Halos. (I just ordered these 3 days ago, will be here in a couple days.)

      As for the tail lights, there are no aftermarket options for the sedan.. sucks.. You could tint them though.

      I have H&R springs on my 06 sedan. They ride pretty good, they started settling in a couple weeks, lowered 1.5inches.

      I wouldn't get any bigger than 205/45(or40)/16 wheels
      My 205/40/17 rub ALOT (If you get lowering springs)

      They have eibach springs too, but I've not had any first person experience with those.

      If you don't have em, fog lights make it look pretty good.

      Some HID's

      Tint

      Sound system

      Don't know what else..

      What part of NWA you in? I use to live in lowell for a bit.

      I saw some people just had the mesh grill and zooming in I wondered if it was the stock price modified. Is it pretty easy to remove? I'm looking into springs for sure. May dip the wheels. Prob bake the tails. Do most people seem to spray or tint the reflectors in the front?

      About Like this?
      You have to take off the three screws holding it on, and then the two plastic clips next to the headlights.
      Then when you have grill off, look on the back and just take out every screw you see.

      What front reflectors?

      Night shades.
      Wet sanded with 600 grit. (1000 grit gives it a flat look. so 600 gives it a more shiny look.)

      It was a nice car, sorry to see its current state. I would snag those rims n leave on rollouts, they'll fit
