9 Ways to Customise Your Car

One of the best parts of car ownership is finding ways to make a car your own. Whether it be modifying aspects of the car to suit how you drive or leaving your mark on the exterior. In this article we will talk you through some of the best ways that you can customise your car to suit you and your style.

1. Seat Covers

First on our list gives you a chance to enhance your comfort and add your own style to your car. When it comes to changing your seat covers it's best to plan in advance what your budget is. If you’re looking to simple switch the colour of your car interior then the process should be fairly straightforward. However, if you’re looking at a leather interior then the price will be much higher.

Despite all this, new seat covers are a great way to completely change the look of your car without changing the entire interior.

2. Sound System

For those who love to listen to the perfect driving songs, upgrading the sound system is the perfect step. It doesn’t matter if your speakers just need a minor upgrade or if you want something top of the range, there are plenty of options out there for you.

We’d recommend assessing what you want/need the new sound system for before committing to a specific product. For example, don’t buy a Carplay if you only need a simple stereo.

3. Satnav

Though they now typically come included as standard in newer cars, it can be worth looking into getting a new satnav. It is best to invest in getting a satnav that suits your driving needs.

Typically ranging in price from £80 to £300, for certain drivers it can be a really handy investment.

4. Wheels

No matter what your car needs, there are almost definitely wheels to suit you. Whether it be a simple change to winter tyres or you just want an aesthetic change to the rims. There are plenty of options when it comes to wheels for you to make your car your own.

We recommend assessing what your car is going to get used for and picking tyres appropriate to your journey type.

5. Exterior Lights

Another simple change that can be used for safety or style. Changing your headlights can be for safety, for example changing to brighter lights for better visibility, or they can be changed to further show your personality on your car. No matter if you want a better beam or just some eyelashes for your car, there are options available to you.

6. Interior Lights

Interior lights aren’t limited to the overhead light you use to plug your seat belt in. This also includes floor LED’s and headliners. 

Floor LEDs can be used to add a pop of colour to an otherwise bare part of your car. As for headlights, these are a fairly straightforward DIY project that can be easily made more interesting with the edition of some lights.

Both of these additions are a cheap way to leave your mark on your car, all it requires is LED lights.

7. In Car Fragrance

A great way to make your car your own is to change the scent. Whether it be by using an air freshener or a branded perfume vial, finding the right fragrance to suit you and your car is a brilliant way to leave your mark on the car.

8. Exterior Appearance

Perhaps the most noticeable of all the options on this list, changing your car's exterior is the easiest way to leave a huge personality stamp on your car. It doesn’t matter if it's a small bumper sticker or a complete repainting of your car, any exterior flourishes are a great way to show who you are through car customisation.

9. Personalised Reg

Last, but certainly not least, are personalised number plates. No matter who you are, there will be a number plate out there that suits your style.

It could be that you’ve found a plate that has your birthday on it or maybe it includes your dog's name. No matter what it is, plates are a great way to make a car yours without making any garish changes.
