Few years back member Roland958 dyed the stitching in his seats yellow using a DecoFabric pen. Common arts & crafts store item, about $4. Several colors besides yellow are available.

Home made cold airs, $75. To Saleen CF brake ducts, two 90 3 inch silicone elbow and air duct mounting plates. I have not dyno'd the car yet but can feel more of a pull up top. Well see on the 25th if there was anything .

This was a great thread on my old car forum. It was basically an epic thread that just continued to get bigger and more creative. The basic premise is for this to be a one stop thread for cheap mods. $40 and under mods only. Basically im a cheap bastard and I know others are too.
I can hear it now. "You paid too much for your car to do cheap mods". The goal here is for inexpensive, cost wise, not cheap looking. I haven't done these mods, but here's what I'm getting at
COST - essentially free
Debadge your trunk. More than likely you'll have all the stuff you need lying around your house. First heat up the emblems by parking your car in the sun or using a hair dryer. Use dental floss to get behind and "cut" off the emblems. Now a little goo gone (even iso alcohol will work), now a quick compounding and wax and you're done.
Cost - $20
Plastidip wheels black. Real easy way to see what your car looks like with black wheels. I would not recommend for the long haul, but definitely good for a few months. I haven't done this to the G, but I did dip my VW wheels at one point.
Please add your own...

The stock ***** pull off (albeit with some force) and you push the new ones on. Easy and cheap mod.
