Hello NT,
I have been here for a while, reading and watching.
This is my introduction.

I am from Middle east. U.A.E
My car is I4 2005 Automatic.
I brought it when it was 15000 Kms and now its almost 49000Kms.
Pretty happy with the car except for the performance.

Starting this year I started doing some custom work. Here are few pics.
I thank NT for being an inspiration and providing the knowledge.

Looking forward to have more...

Halo with Underbody with Interior light working with music.

I brought the Tail lights from Ebay and it was a used one.
To prepare the tail lights I imported 100 Super bright LEDs and opened my tail lights.
I used DIY Printed Circuit board to prepare a base for the LEDS.
I used half inch plexi glass to cut out the round to paint the T
Lot of soldering and testing.

So should I night shade my tail lights or keep it same.
 
where can i find those tail lights or are they custom...is there DIY thread anywhere (prob not cause first time seeing it) ne ways nice car ive seen that same box in someone else car also?

Thank you.
Those tail lights are brought from EBAY.

Actual pics

The brake and Park lights are LEDS
USED one.

I had it shipped internationally to find
1) Some of the LEDs are not working
2) It doesnt fit well on my car
3) One week and all the black gum goes to hell and dust and water enters the lights.

So I decided a DIY.
I will try to post pics of the DIY.

The woofer box was custom build to specs for S12 L7 Kicker. 92Liter box

hey neo, nice rims, and that T in brake light is something

no wonder you complain on performance, with that system in your trunk ;)
The T is actually park lights.. which means it comes on the moment u switch on the lights.. :)

I really wonder I havent seen my color car in this forum so far... why?

The woofer box is t 3/4 inch thick good grade MDF.
Its damn heavy and didnt cut down the weigh coz when i built it I wanted the best.

I am really worried its eating up my performance and handling...

Guess wat my 9 month old battery died on me...

I am going to run an 80 AMP normal battery.


Wanted to go Super charging but it seems nothing is available for my car...
Turbo is more hassel. But do-able
My problem is i gotta balance between my family and my car... I am going to be father soon...
And noone understands my passion for tuning or pimping... my family looks at me in a weird way...
:)

And this is my daily driven car... planning to get an outdated 4 X 4 for my wife and family.. they totaly hate being in this cramped and low car...

Oops. The 2.7 badge threw me.
I am sorry... I got the badge as a package and i didnt know wat to do with the 2.7...
After all its $$$$$..... i didnt want to throw it away...

And over here the car is knows as
Hyundai Coupe.... noone knows about Tiburon... and forget Tuscani...

So i get people looking at my rear badge and trying to read....
And the confused look.. its so nice to see all this through the rear view mirror...
Especially since the Tail light mod...
Coz Tiburons are rare too.. anyone could easily buy a BMW or HONDA for the same price of a hyundai

Everyone has a mercedes or a BMW out here... exotics are a regular sight... and hyundai's are for people who cant afford a real car....

So i gotta work up my REP... :)
