Hyundai Elantra Forum The Hyundai Elantra Forum. Later models (96-up) of this 4-door share their Beta engines and chassis with the Hyundai Tiburon. Earlier Mistubishi-based Hyundai Elantras (92-95) are perfect candidates for the popular 4g63t motor swap, which turns the Hyundai Elantra into a real sleeper. These characteristics make the Hyundai Elantra a great car for those who want sports car performance with family car flexibility.

It'll look good, just be careful trimming the edges so that it looks nice, and install it carefully. I used 3M double sided tape and a few nuts and bolts on my Accent and it's held up nicely.

Yeah. The difference between acceptable and overdone is slim! As long as you have the skill, it can be done in good taste.
