Default Mods For An EF - Help me out :)

Just asking for any ideas of mods to put on my car.
I'm getting exhaust and audio done but any others that may look good... ie: Window Decal or Bonnet Scoops or Interior Recolouring...
If you have pictures for some good ideas please post them so I can use them to decide.
Also if you're from Perth and have good places to go for these mods please fill me in.

lol FPVWEPN, could you atleast answer my question :P
I want to get the whole interior re-coloured black and silver in parts so that I can get seat covers and mats that actually match
But the problem with this is the roof and floor carpets and on the door handles the material there.

Full interiors go for about $700 mate, you could get an EL XR interior... (the best e-series interior IMO)

Lower it (but watch that ticky kit, they're precious now). I reckon those mags look hot mate, don't worry about changing 'em. Are they called Fury's or something?

Do the LED dash mod; contact AUII_Forte for that - not expensive.

Clear side repeaters and colour-code the black door strips, then she'll be gorgeous!

NESA - if you want to change the colour of your interior. I am sure there are certain individuals that would give an arm and a leg to change interiors with you so that you could modify a more ugly grey/grey interior instead of that beautiful cappa interior.

There are people here that think the cappa interior looks classier that the dull grey interior.

I have an EA so i think any later model interior looks better than mine but i prefer the cappa to the dull grey.

There is just one thing i do like about my interior. There is physically more room between the centre consol and the door area.
E.G. The interior feels larger in my EA, then the later models.


Instead of seat covers, why not find some cappa leather seats as well

Pretty pricey to get the spoiler removed and holes welded up IMO. But yeh, lower her, get a nice exhaust tip, bonnet vents (maybe a scoop instead : ) I reakon differant side skirts.

As for interior, don't do what I did. I am regretting spraying mine now as the paint is either flaking off or the plastic protector gets really sticky in the heat :(

Question Pully6: Where can I get a custom interior done for $700? I want.

But yeh, you notice the differance once you lose the spoiler. See the diff with mine?

best e-series interior: EL GT or The FBT's
For $700 you can get your seats wrapped in vynyl which looks crappy
try and find an fbt interior good luck though or you can go custom like me but be prepared to pay although youd wana change it to grey interior before you go custom

EAcruiser has got you sitting on ultralow Kings ;) damn that looks nice.
Go low but not that low...you'll cringe everytime you hear your bodykit scrrraaape.
Have you got tinted windows already? If so get them darker.
I'll show a pick of mine soonish for ya.

Yea I do Nesa.... and yeh that fella on the bike, didn't notice him when I took the photo so it was a rude shock to see him smiling there in the background when I uploaded to the computer.

Link to my interior photos (Note they are old pics, Ive finished off all the doors and trims but still havent got my seats :( )
