When we first get a car sometimes we go a little gun-hoe and go overboard on modifying. Well... if you haven't we definitely have. To say the least, it's not pretty. Oftentimes when you are too excited to mod your car you make some irresponsible decisions. From going too cheap to not fully knowing what a pain in the ass some of these mods can be, let alone completely ruin your car! So let's talk about that. Here are the mods that will ruin your car.

[@coltoncrawley2879]

My si is on cut springs and it’s literally fine if you take your time and measure things so that you cut them evenly, doesnt shake or ride that rough at all and i can throw it in corners all day long lmao

[@FitmentIndustries]

Please don't actually get those. Quality coilovers come in right around or just under 1k that won't snap in half (yes we've seen it) . Lowering springs and upgraded struts are the move if you're really on a budget or don't want as stiff of a ride as coils. If you guys want we can put some coilovers though their paces to show you that you get what you pay for more often than not

7:20 as far as steering wheels.. a lot of people buy the $40-50 eBay wheels with the SWEET JDM wakaba leaf horn button that come with a quick release and then the $12 hub to fit their car.. however there are some cheap priced alternatives if you can't afford an NRG or Nardi, DnD is one of those companies that actually have some pretty reasonably priced wheels, hubs, quick releases, and other interior bits.. just do some research like Alex said. Be safe and be smart out there guys! And take pride in your ride and the parts you put in it

worst mod: stancing to the point your car scrapes on a leaf. As cool as low cars look, make your wheels sit at a huge angle is ugly and destroys your car. I legitimately do not find people that do excessive camber (a reasonable amount is fine) to be actual car people, cause if you loved cars, you wouldn’t be literally destroying them, would you?

[@grand04gt]

I used to have Future shop install my audio system and then saw the crap work they did and went thru and shortened wires (so there was not 10 feet wrapped up behind the dash) and soldered instead of crimp connections. Basically make sure any modifications are done right and do it SOLELY for yourself and enjoy it. If you like it and others do not that is perfectly fine and is what makes modifying the car your way makes it enjoyable and really your car

[@faxxzc]

I would not put solder over crimp, if you put a soldered wire in a terminal, if theres a lot of current through it it can melt the solder and slip the wire out. Cant happen with a proper crimp connection

[@grand04gt]

Soldering is superior to a cheap crimp connector and it would take an insane amount of heat (which would blow the small fuse) to melt the solder like that. Also if you tie the wires together before adding the solder as well as heat shrink it will not come undone easily

An unpainted body kit. Terrible. Like just the front bumper? Or getting rid of interior because you want to loose weight, and the car isnt even that fast. Stickers, too many stickersssss.
