      New to the Forum... Looking for Ideas

      Hey Everyone! I'm new to the forum, came across this site when I was looking for mods for the new 2009 Aveo I just purchased. It's a pretty standard 1LT model, but I am looking for something to give it some flash. Not too big into loud exhaust since I have a child my wife will be driving the car on occasion. My plans are initially to get the Windows tinted and have fog lights installed. I was also thinking getting a two tone paint color with keeping the original color on the bottom and having silver as the accent color on top. Anyone else got some ideas?

      Here is a picture of my new ride fresh off the lot... I will add more later.

      Nice find. I dunno what it is about black cars, but they do look great when clean.

      Around here I have been suffering from the ridiculous amount of pollen and dust that has been around lately. My car is consistently covered with a layer of it. I can't imagine what it would look like if I had real dark paint..

      Yeah, the pollen has been horrible. The first week I had the car it was bright yellow. I have since washed the car twice in the past week to keep it nice and shiny.

      Love the way it looks when it shines though.
