[sayedarsalanali]

Congrats on purchase of the ride, drive safe.

What kind of modifications are you planning for? Performance mods or more focused on the body kits/ accessories etc (cosmetics).

[hamzamansoorhm118]

My car is a family car and daily driven I have focused on body works like body extensions, 18" rims lowering lights change straight pipe exhaust though I have also planned some power mods like jdm iridium plugs, cold air intake e.t.c you can suggest ME better power mods and body mods

[hamzamansoorhm118]

As I am a student and very busy coz I also handle my father's business so I have prepared a to-do list let me share That list

1. Body kit (e-sport) simple one
2. Trd trunk spoiler and roof spoiler
3. Alloy rims and tires
4. Back lava lights
5. I am not replacing headlight because many people advice me to put only hids or leds and change larking lamps and smoke lights or keep simple bcoz aftermarket all headlights are fail in visibility
6. Lowering
7. Exhaust
8. Trd Grill ( will be decided at the spot after watching overall looks)
9. Jdm iridium plugs
10. Cold Air intake
11. Small works like Toyota red logo, tints smoke lights Drl covers e.t.c
12. Last but not least a fine detail
13. Buying some care products

Further changes can be occur depending upon condition your suggestions are always welcome please suggest me best ideas

[sayedarsalanali]

What I understand is that your focus is on the cosmetics. But before proceeding you should clearly know your budget (if you can share here, others may be able to advise better too) as the mods you have listed vary a lot in terms of price and quality.

[hamzamansoorhm118]

Brother yes I have focused on cosmetics and looks because I have only 1 car my father also used To drive so it will be awkward and next thing that engine is 1.3 which is not enough to go for dyno or any other BTW my budget is 2 - 2.25 lac you can suggest ME better mods then I have planned and I will be very happy if you will give me suggestions and ideas

Imo First and most value for money would be getting rims(17s-18s) and lowering the car, after that body kit and so on..

For rims I personally like the Vossen style hollow rims, they are really common these days but look really good on corolla,similar design is also available in Lenso series (Lenso Conquesta) but it will be a little more expensive but will be proper branded rims.

This is the style I am talking about , I do not own this car its just for reference , if some Pakwheeler is owner please feel free to contact me I will remove this picture , car in this picture is on 17s and maxspeed lowering springs

[hamzamansoorhm118]

Dude I also love these wheels they are amazing man can you please share details of one that you are talking about (lenso) wheels

[zee5han]

Sure brother , the model which resembles the exact above model are called Lenso Conquesta 7 .
Now keep in mind market is full of fake lenso rims, so if you do end up buying Lenso. buy from an authorized dealer in your city.
Something else to consider, market is full of same design rims (Chinese ) most are portrayed as Vossen , where as non of them are orignal Vossen, (Vossen does not make rims below 19 inch)
This is the link from lenso's website
https://www.lensosa.com/product/conquista-7/
These come in both black and silver colour.
Availability and prices etc you will have to find out buy calling authorized dealer of lenso in your respective city.

[zee5han]

Just remember , take it slowly step by step, don't overdo it with the mods , keep it decent and it will be a head turner.
The above black corolla is a very good example of good taste and a clean ride.

If you take my advice, I will recommend you to limit the car modifications in line with the manufacturer recommendations. This will satisfy your thirst for personalization of the car plus good and reliable performance. What I am going to recommend in coming replies might annoy you but believe me it will be good for you and the car.

[sayedarsalanali]

Starting with the wheels/ Rims. This is the best item to start your plan with, and surely you can go to bigger rim sizes. But please keep in mind:

1- While changing the Rim n tyre size please ensure that the overall diameter of the new combination stays in limit of +/- 2% of the OEM wheel dia.
2- While increasing the tire width, please keep in mind that the car is 1300 cc and the body is same as that comes in 1800 cc Grande. So extra wide tires will have a negative impact on the performance of the car and as well as the fuel efficiency.
3- Go with branded and original rims plus good quality tires.

I would recommend to check Lenso Jager Alpine rims, they come in the standard size and look cool. Will be sharing the pic in next reply.

1) Go for OEM Bodykits only. Aftermarket ones are a pain in the a*s
2) No need for both. Just one would do.
3) Don't go too crazy here. Keep the sidewall of the tyres (profile) to a certain number. If the sidewall is too thin, you'll have a very hard and bumpy ride and it's dangerous too. Overall Tyre sizes should be same as OEM
4) Ok
5) Go for OEM headlights that came in the Thai Altis V. They have LED projectors in the low beam.
6) Do it the right way. Either go for proper lowering springs or street spec coilovers. Do some research beforehand
7) No need. Chinese saste exhausts have so much drone that they'll make your ears bleed on highways. Very irritating.
8) Ok
9) What exactly are JDM iridium plugs?
10) No need. You'll only be spending money without gaining anything
11) Try not to install aftermarket electrical accessories. If you have to, go for plug and play stuff only.
12) For detail, do you have any prior experience?

[sameerulhaq064]

Simplicity is key here. Look at how good this Corolla looks even though there's no bodykit, stickers e.t.c

[sameerulhaq064]

The only thing I don't like about these rims is that they are too common.

[hamzamansoorhm118]

OK bro I will search for authorize dealer thanks for your kind information if you have contact of lenso Lahore dealer please share

[hamzamansoorhm118]

Yes brother I will not overload it just trying to keep it simple with decent mods it will be modified not khacified inshallah
