Hyundai Aftermarket

Hyundai Accent Forum The Hyundai Accent Forum. Hyundai's little champ. While the Hyundai Accent and Hyundai Excel may be small, they respond very well to aftermarket modifications and is among the favorites for Hyundai tuners.

Whats your reasoning for modding?

Default Whats your reasoning for modding?
Why do you mod? Do you mod alone? With your friends? For enjoyment?

I do it to fix annoying problems/deficiencies in the car, I guess you could call it a restomod almost.

I like to mess with stuff. Every since I was young i was notorious for ripping stuff and apart and trying (key word) to make it better.

Also watch a lot of The 6 Million Dollar Man.

Partly because, Yes i love modding everything ... I have a Bike which i have modded quite a bit,



This was my first car given to me by nan who got a new car, a X3 1997; I didn't care, it was my car, first car (could never take on road though) due to being in England. and it rusted, rotted and got scrapped...



and to be honest... i like being able to wipe the smile off of the boy racers over here they generally race in things like Ford Fiesta's, Saxo's and now VW Golf's .... When I'm done Said X3 will wipe the floor with 'em.
