Super Cheap Ways to Make your Car Look Great

1 Comment

Your car is a huge investment and if you want to make it look great then there are a couple of things that you need to take into account. After all, you need to make sure that it is accessorised and you also need to make sure that it is clean and polished as well.

Cleaning your Car

Every time you get out of your car, make an effort to take any rubbish out. You also need to try and focus on your interior detailing as well. For example, are there any marks that you could cover up? Is it possible for you to replace the gear shifter knob? Little things like this can make a huge difference to your car and by simply dusting your dashboard you can really improve the general appearance of your vehicle. Organizing your car also helps and you don’t have to spend a ton of money on organisational tools or spiffy hardware. Try and consider using ziplock bags to keep all of your car manuals together, or even use cable tidies to keep your phone wires together. Of course, it’s understandable that you won’t want to wax your car every month, but do consider doing it a couple of times a year. It also won’t hurt to put it through a car wash from time to time, and make sure that you give the alloys a good scrub as well.

Floor Mats

The first thing that will get ruined in your car is probably going to be your floor mat. If your car has the original floor mat that it came with and it is in great condition then you have nothing to worry about here, but if you don’t or if you know that your car mats are in bad condition then you may want to get these replaced. When you do get them replaced, try and opt for rubber mats. Felt mats can store mud and moisture, and all of this can lead to a mould build up. Eventually you’ll have to buy a brand new set and this can cost you a ton of money as well. Rubber on the other hand, can be cleaned time and time again.

Car Body

If you have dents or dings in your car then why not consider getting them fixed? A Jeep rear bumper for example is very easy to buy and very easy to replace as well so you can easily bring your old car back to life. If you haven’t cleaned your windshield wipers in a while then you need to get a microfibre cloth so that you can get all of the dust and debris that you have accumulated over the years. This will help to keep your glass clean and it is a great way for you to really boost the general appearance of your car.

Other things that you can do include replacing the alloys, the door handles or the trim underneath the car. These things are a little bit more expensive but they can make all the difference.

Taking Yourself From A To B: Your First Car

Leave a comment

That means it’s time to invest! If you’re the kind of person who’s lived in a big city your whole life and never needed your own transport, or you’ve been able to depend on someone else this entire time and you know the situation needs to change, it’s time to take action. Being able to drive is a life skill a lot of people have and not a lot of people really put to good use. It can help us get jobs and support ourselves, it helps us ferry our families around and makes homelife a lot easier, and a vehicle can even be a mini home in itself when you need it to be. So if you’re on your journey to becoming a fully fledged driver, here’s some good ways to stay on top of things.

Getting On With Your Lessons

Lessons aren’t always the first step in learning to drive. You need to determine first of all what kind of vehicle you’re hoping to pilot from here on out, whether it be a manual or an automatic or a car that runs on fuel or electricity. When you’re first starting your lessons, don’t be afraid to make mistakes, this is the space where it’s absolutely safe to do so.

Make sure you keep up with car control when you’re outside of the driver’s seat. If you know the routes around your town well, you can easily keep up with a Sat Nav or the instructor’s commands. Look at maps in your spare time, understand the speed limits of the common roads. Try and get some offtime practice in another car when you can, as more and more practical experience is never going to hurt anyone. With this, you’ll be studying for your theory from the get go, and still have the right amount of practical experience.

What If I Can’t Afford a Car?

Don’t worry, a lot of people are in the same situation as you. When you’re in this kind of situation, there’s a few solutions out there for you. Why not try a lease maybe? When you’re only hiring a car out for a short while, the cost is going to be dramatically lower than trying to own one outright. And hey, you might not even get enough use out of an owned car!

If someone else in your family has a car, see if you can be put on their insurance to also drive it safely when they’re not using the vehicle. Sharing the cost of running the vehicle between you is something a lot of people can manage, so don’t turn your nose up at not owning your own car. You can always move on from here after all, instead of immediately getting bogged down into debt.

Getting from A to B doesn’t have to cost the entire bank. Driving is an investment of course, but it’s worth it for living life to the full.
