Finished product:



My old Accord (mods visible in pics are Magnaflow cat-back, 1.5 Eibach lowering springs, and DIY blackhoused headlights), and my current Matrix (mods visible in pics are de-badged hatch, rear limo tint and 15% front, and pending mod: Tein lowering springs)







I will have more pictures of the Elantra soon and maybe some videos! Thanks guys!

 

Nice. Good job with the headlights.

 

Just a little update. I just installed LED's in the gague cluster. Not too bad for $10 shipped. Sorry about the poor quality pictures, my camera phone sucks, especally at night.

Looks much better.

 

Gauges look nice.

That's some ugly rust. Very unfortunate. Did you have the same anti-perforation warranty as the US?

 

Thanks! unfortunately there are a lot of hot spots BangHead.gif to be expected with LED's I guess. And yea the rust is pritty nasty. My girlfriend bought the car used over 2 years ago, so I dont think there is any warranty on the rust.

 

Typical of Canadian Hyundai.

Yeah Hyundai Canada doesnt seem to be so great. They are making some decent cars, but everytime I go into the dealership the service department is terrible. And from the work I have got done so far, the mechanics dont seem all that great either.
