hey all i got a White Gen2 Liberty GX

bought it back in april/11 for $4500 with about 6XXXXkms on it
and super clean interior and exterior
got it of some grandma was so stoked with it
dont think she knew what she was giving up

day i got it

i just hit about 8XXXXkms :( but still no problems with it

anyways been thinking about doing so mods to it.
-exhaust
-lower it
-tint the windows as dark as legal
-rims possibly. actually dont mind the stocko tyre look
-find a RX lib kit they look so much better.

this is what it looks like now

Nice mate. With those low kms you've got a gem that will last a long time!

You're on the right track with mods.
Tints, exhaust, definitely get some nice 17" rims, RX kit is always favourable, and tidy up the suspension with some lowered springs, sway bar, strut braces, new bushes, linkages, etc

why have you got a photo next to your car with a white board in front of your face? surely you're not that repulsive to look at??

car looks like a good base to start modding, nice clean canvas. that's not a standard rear spoiler is it??

lowered sport springs, rims, exhaust, tint, rx body kit, colour code side mouldings and mirrors, sway bars, jdm clear indicators, wrx seats etc etc. the list is endless. how much money do you have?? :P

hahah lol nah didnt want the world knowing me.. i really need to shoot some good pics of it those dont do it justice.

umm the spoiler was on it when i got it so i dunno if it is or not sorta looks like the same in your pic of the lib. its made by bodyline.. not sure if its even meant for the car....... its brokend on one side anyways

budget well ill just do it as i can.
ill start off with all the minor stuff and work up to performance i guess. gonna try and go for a clean look. minimal mods i guess just under the hood.

You'd definitely want a big pod filter for maximum HP gain.
Then a cannon..
Thirdly, some chrome vaults (maybe 17")..

Then start with the lowered springs or coilovers, window tints, rear sway bar, some wrx 17s, and colour code the side Mirrors!

After you've done all that, you want some LEDs off eBay. Replace all the halogen globes with blue LEDs for sure, then a hectic as subwoofah brah... (maybe Ben can help you out with that one)

Hi,

The middle paragraph of what Sam said, and what Alex said are what you should do/truths.

Welcome to SC.

Cheers,
