Sprucing up and upgrading your car doesn’t have to be ultra-expensive. In fact, it can be done on a budget. VW vans are amongst the easiest vehicles to spruce up on a budget. In this article, we’ll talk about ways you can upgrade your vehicle stylishly without breaking the bank. Check them out!
Fix Broken Parts
Sprucing up your car starts with fixing (or replacing) everything that’s not working properly. If you have loose mirrors, rattling exhaust, broken wipers, or other parts that should be fixed, sort them out right away.
Quick fixes and tutorials are available online, but if you’re not sure about your car-fixing ability, ask someone more well-versed in vehicles to help you.
Clean the Vehicle’s Interior
Keeping your car’s interior is important; there should be no empty packets, drinks, bottles, and other types of dirt that ruin the beauty of your car. Pick up the car vacuum and start cleaning.
Cleaning involves throwing out the rubbish and ensuring your upholstery is free of any dirt. Dust your fans to freshen up the air in the car and improve circulation. Find a high-quality air freshener, too.
Selecting the ideal air freshener car can improve your driving experience by giving your travels a pleasant, unique scent.
Get Seat Covers
Good car seat covers are great investments. They’re easy to clean, and they can provide comfort since they can keep you cool or warm depending on the weather. On top of that, they help you highlight your taste, style, and personality through custom designs.
If you have pets, pet-friendly covers are also in the market. There’s a truckload of colors, designs, and materials available. As a bonus, they’re super easy to install.
Replace Floor Mats
A layer of crud can build up inside your car every time you get in from the outdoors. Think of dirt clumps, snow, mud, or rocks soiling our car in an instant. Floor mats protect your car from such problems.
On top of that protection, you can also choose mats that align with your personal style. They can also be customized to reflect your personality. They’re manufactured using rubber or carpet, and you can easily install them — just drop them in place. Of course, make sure that you have the right measurements and dimensions before you buy.
Upgrade Your Grille
When it comes to the grille, you can opt for a complete redo via a grille insert, replacement, or overlay. The insert is put in the center of your current grille, while an overlay goes over it. Prices are inexpensive, depending on the design you want. Overlays are the easiest to install as well as the cheapest to buy.
Buy a Car Bra
Adding a car bra helps you keep your car in pristine condition and prevent paint damage. It keeps your car looking brand new and scratch-free. It also prevents road salt, bird droppings, and dust from making direct contact with the paint.
Clear, protective film bras can be applied everywhere, making them discreet. You can either pay professional installers or buy a roll and do the installation by yourself.
Use a Dashboard Cover
If your dashboard looks worn out or you want it to look fresh, then dashboard covers are perfect for you. It’s an easy upgrade, and you can buy them cheaply (around $20) in velour and vinyl wrap kits — it’s easy to install them by yourself, too.
Spare Tire Covers
Spare tire covers make the back of your car more interesting. They also protect your tire from dirt, dust, and damage. They come in hard or soft form and may be expensive if you want a lockable cover. However, the overall pricing depends on the make and model of your vehicle.
