One thing that really does help, although it seems so minor, next time you get a car with wheel covers, use a satin black spray paint on the steel wheels before you put caps on - it really does make it look so much better! Love these upgrades you do for your friends and subscribers! I am in NJ, too!
Yup, exactly what I've done on 3 different vehicles
Beauty Rings and chrome lug nuts always looks better. In my opinion.
Also, if you do have alloy wheels, painting the rear drums or front disk "hats" black also helps the alloys to pop. Much better than looking at rusty brake components behind the wheels.
Black spray on wheels = 30HP
THINKING THE SAME LMAO
spray the wheels black before intalling the hubcaps.
It is gonna look kinda messy on the hubcaps but do on the hubcaps
Or just get actual cheap rims and not hubcaps. Sorry I know it's on a budget but damn lol that's real budget
Yup
No RGB leds too
Exactly
the car itself is in such good shape. I love this generation corolla. It would look so clean lowered with some after market wheels.
Some guy I met driving with my hooked up yaris had one next to me all lowered nicely done and got a 2 tone fresh 🎨 🖌 job complimented my yaris while I did the same back and his was fast toyota has some 😴 💤 on 🚗 even if they are 🐌 🦥 u can still work your 🎩 🪄 🔮 ✨️ on them
I quite frankly believe 96-01 corollas are the best corollas ever, having own a 2000 Prizm (bought new back then) which is basically the same car I an attest to that.
@@mariosiaven2965 My mom's '98 Corolla is still on the road with 300,000 miles on it. Toyotas: Car Washes and Regular Maintenance and They'll Outlive All of Us
@@mariosiaven2965 I had a 98 Prizm. Best car I owned ever.
Let's be real that's in no way a beat up Corolla
I have the same corolla generation and am still using it... 20 plus years of driving and still never failed me big time. Cheap new parts are still available.
How many miles?
Awesome , comfortable and reliable ! .
How tf can 100 bucks change car's look so much... :DD
Something as simple as tint can do it, invest time in learning how to do things and the process is even more affordable.
people are lazy. Autozone has everything you need to make your car look good.
@@2faded_cuh I think laziness might apply to some but to be honest i think lack of confidence or even guidance plays a role too. Personally i don't visit parts stores because i tend to order direct if i can and just stock on things like bulbs, wipers and all the regular wear parts which i end up getting at a fraction of what retail would charge.
Skill literally skill is all it takes and that’s the very reason none of our cars look good when we try to budget build smh 😔
@@haidarscheik8162 it can look good if you have patience and piece it together slowly to save on cost, problem is you have to know where to look and when to do it on a budget. You either spend time or money
Suggestion if one near you to save money is go to a junkyard and get the OEM hubcaps for cheaper. I did this with my 03 Sentra back in HS I got the original hubcaps from a crashed Sentra for $15. I had to remove them myself but it was worth it. I got some other items at the wreckers too, I got the center console armrest, and I the upgraded visors. I like the OEM hubcaps because in order to remove them you have to remove the lugnuts, so they can’t be easily stolen.
What about drivers seat for Corolla junkyard or get in reapolstered? Mine is compressed.
Appreciate what you’re doing, man. Nice to see what a difference some small fixes can make. Super inspiring. Cheers!
These cars are the best cars to restore!! (Holy crap my other car is a focus st lol!!)I picked one up about 2 years ago for a daily driver and needed a few basic suspension parts and now has 200k and still drives like when I got it and is a tank..I’m in the process of doing a cheap paint job and getting some new brackets for underneath that are getting ugly..I recommend these cars to anyone looking for something that will take you where you need to go!! They are solid!
killing it, love the content, reaches all types of audiences.
Oh wow that was the first car I owned when I was 18, that thing is extremely reliable.
I absolutely adore these types of builds, too much focus on the crazy over the top wide body stanced tuner cars and whatnot on social media so it's nice to see some more down-to-earth content. I have an r33 skyline myself but I transformed a beat-up Toyota Starlet not too long ago. Not only did I end up loving the car (they're bullet proof), I had a lot of fun making it look nice again. There's something satisfying in seeing a more basic commuter car that's 20+ years old, but that still looks nice and clean
Why is it bulletproof? Just curious
@@OneJuan0633 it's a metaphor for saying it's very durable I'd say
@@Spud_Farmer I’m stupid as hell LOL. I use that expression all the time but somehow didn’t catch it when I read this 😂😂
@@OneJuan0633 What Shamrock24 says, it's a way of saying that the car is super reliable..and they are :) I've seen so many of these with over 200k miles on the clock with very little issues and almost no headaches over their more than 20 years of ownership.
@@trailsdetails4061 yeah that's what I was trying to say at the time lol
My neighbour has a modded one so I know
I been doing this car flipping for almost 16 years, it is my full time job, and also I'm a mechanic so we know a lot of tricks here and there to make a car look pretty again without spending not even 100 dlls, having the right connections and having your own shop helps a lot, it is very fun to do all this cause you feel proud once you finish each car. congrats bro and keep it up.
Had one of these Corollas back in the day and we all know they have one of the best engines, from 98 & up 1.8L and shortly after 1.8L VVTi, As long as the plugs are good and have clean oil, maybe a new thermostat, You're golden for years. A perfect frugal car to keep you on the road for cheap.
I might just buy one as a second car
Just found you last night and I'm already addicted! I'm not surprised you're already at 100K but I am that it's not higher. Keep it up, my man. I have a strong feeling you're gonna find lots of success in the coming years.
Thanks for sharing your tips on how to spruce up your vehicle for a small budget. One thing I'd recommend to your readers is to always clean up your car from the inside - first the inside glass surfaces with a microfiber cloth (Walmart/dollar store), then the plastic or wooden parts like the dashboard, center console, door jambs, handles, button controls, bottle/cup holders, etc., & then move onto the dirtiest part of the cabin, i.e the carpets, cargo mats or foot controls. If you do it in any other manner, the dirt & dust from the carpets/cargo mats will go to the cleaner areas. A clean cabin always perks up any car, no matter how old or new it is.
Dude I found out about your channel through insta for that blue civic you painted orange. The work you do is insane for the budget. Just subscribed man, keep up the quality content! :)
When I saw you buy those hubcaps I was like eeew, but honestly, they make that car looks worlds better, and with the budget you basically pulled off a miracle.
Love these approachable transformations using off the shelf items. Not tying up the paycheck or the garage for 2 months with crazy builds.
Good stuff, refreshing content. Makes you appreciate the simpler things a lot more!
Well done!!!👍 I drove an old 97 Camry for 21yrs w/265,000 miles. It only takes a little to make a car look nice. I always said to myself, "just because I'm poor, I dont have to LOOK IT".
That Corolla looks in mint condition for 20+yrs and is looking fine now, nicely done! probably doubled its value just like that!
Very Nice Dude!!!
There is a steel wheel for that model corolla that i absolutely dig, back when i had my 98CE i would look for the whole set but ended up settling on a mint set of Primes that came as an option.
Well its good to see someone doing work on the average car instead of some super expensive car that only rich people drive i can watch you do it over and over great job and it turned out nicely
I always look forward to your vids! It’s just so relaxing to watch. Keep up the good work!🔥
I’d like to see the same car but done up with maybe 500. Great job!! My brother just got his first car a month ago ( same model ) I’m just itching to start doing little things like this lol
Congrats! I love Corollas
You transformed that car on a $100 budget. It came out really nice.
Love the series. I don’t know much about cars yet and looking to to do small upgrades to my cheap Honda.
Thank you for the videos! Keep ‘em coming
Love your content so much bro! It’s always nice seeing your videos pop up in my notifications!
I like what you do to these cars. Simple, affordable yet elegant 👍🏾
I’ve only started following this channel recently and I love every single video. Keep up the good work😊
💙💙💙
@@SmplBuilds wish could do this for me
I’m a big fan of the chrome rim ring and chrome lug nut look for this style Corolla. Repaint the steelies and that looks awesome
Wish we could of seen her reaction too! Really simple and clean 👌 love it
This is some classic simple builds and I love it!!!!
your content is just as entertaining as big money builds. you cleaned this corolla up very nicely.
this video was everything i was looking for, thank you!! Gave me some good ideas for my 05 corolla. I wish we got to see her reaction when she picked it up!
I had a 2000 Corolla that lasted me 8 years. Had to get rid of it last summer due to rust since I'm in Ontario. It still ran and drive perfecfly! I😁👍
that painted grill made a huge difference
Another great job. Keep it up!
I'm working on a 2017 Nissan Sentra and yeah, it's always on a budget, but whether it's a year or 2 years, I cannot wait to finish and take it to automation someday
Great video, keep it up my guys
I'm a Lube Tech at a service station. These old Toyotas that I service are usually in better condition under the hood and under the car than most 5 year old Jeeps and all the German junk.
Great video guys keep it upp!!
Nice! Love your videos man
Love that stealth gray RS...same as mine. Dope!
That was Awesome !!
Pretty clean man - great job!
What a good starting point. We love epic transformations but the basics go a long way
Nice... No fancy stuff. Nothing expensive. Simple. Liked the video 👍🏼
Another awesome vid! 🔥👍🏼
Bring back memories Corolla days. RIP tho.
so sick nice work!!!
*Very nice video, love watching your channel, keep up the good work ❤*
I personally would have refinished the steelies and rocked those, I understand steelies are hideous to most people
the classic for this channel but i never get tired of it man:)
These are the videos I enjoy!
Killing it bro
OMG, what a transformation and the lights. omg, it looks like it's going to go race. bro
Dude, what a concept😮 👀😎💯👍
They make these little plugs for the holes where the front liscense plates used to go, and they usually come primed and ready to paint. I got mine for like $3 on ebay
Awesome content man keep it up
That generation of corollas are lovely
The Vehicle is going to be as CLEAN and NEAT on the inside and outside since the BRAND is designed for that purpose, to make everything as NEW concept and standards of excellence are applied from the practice. Congratulations for this transformation priced decently.
I love your videos bro I do alot of cleaning and fixing up cars as well one tip I have when your putting hubcaps on get a cheap can of gloss black and paint the steel wheels first then put the hubcaps on makes it look really clean especially when your dealing with a hubcap that doesn't cover much of the wheel
Great transformation. Car looks in great shape for its age.
I really like what you do at a budget, takes me back, I would've thrown some black paint in the rusted wheels also
I definitely would not have left the two holes from the license plate like that out in front. I may have bought a black trim that went all the way around the bumper to hide those. But yeah, $100 is super tight budget! Good job though, car looks super clean. Those little cars can run forever!
Ohhh man you got me remembering the good times I had with my 02 Corolla
Love your videos!
Man, i just sold mine, and this is 10/10 comprared to mine which had all the suspension beaten up, no brakes engine consumes oil, rust, the head lights were not in the correct position due to prior incident, fuel tank had a hole, but it was a reliable beater for the cold winters here up north in canada. i miss it even if it was he most uncomfortable car ever.
It's crazy how the most minor of mods can help improve the look of a car. If you don't feel confident in your car, your driving will reflect that. So even small cosmetic improvements like this can help people drive better
It's so funny like you change the stile of the car! 😅 Great video!!
dang i need this done to my car bad. keep up the good content!
i love these kinds of videos
In December I bought a 2004 Corolla CE. The stock black steel wheels got Nokian Haakappilliitta R5 winter tires. I bought some very nice alloy wheels to mount the Michelin Defenders the car came with. That factory 15 inch wheel covers really do look nice on it. It may be 20 years old, but the original owner drove it 20 years and put 100,000 miles on the clock. Consider she was forced to stop driving at age 95, the amount and frequency of use was perfect. I kust admit I am more than pleasantly surprised with the old car. Who knows. Maybe I will be driving Yoda until I'm 95.
Don’t ever stop doing these.
ok i was hesitant about the universal front lip but THAT CAME OUT GREAT!
I would have painted the rims before putting on the new hubcap, too....
But the car looks nice!
Nice and clean corolla great job 👍
I love to watch this videos! I have been living in hard times right now I wish I had your ability and budget to transform my 2002 Honda Accord LX :/ Big shout-out to you from Philadelphia keep up your awesome job!
Keep these videos coming
Mate your channel and your presentation skills have really improved hell a lot ❤❤❤
Car was looking super clean as is tbh
Here in Canada cars above 10 years already looks like crap cause of the snow and rust
Shhhhhhh
Fresh🔥💯
I always thought these “first” comments would go away eventually guess I was wrong 😂😂😂
First comments are cool!
Gotta love the wheel lock lugs. That is a really clean example of that car though 👍
banger video as always !
awesome video - keep it coming brother!
Nice job! But I just wanna ask: what about the 2 holes under made by the "shifter lock" you removed? Did you close up those holes? Those holes should be sealed, because water will enter through those when it rains.
As I watched the whole thing again. It seems this video is edited because there was a part in the video I watched while he was unscrewing the bolts of the "shifter lock" and the holes are clearly visible. Here it seems that the place where the shifter lock was located is already closed up with the carpet. I hope that those holes are closed. Because water will still enter through those holes.
For outside cleaning, when cleaning the outside body, tires, roof or car body panels, always do it in steps, not all at once. First rinse it, apply soap with a microfiber hand mitt or a non-abrasive tool, wash it off, & then use a dry microfiber towel & rub it gently to remove watermarks. You can apply polish if you have it along with more microfiber towels. Also, on all high-mileage vehicles having more than 75-80 K miles, wait until you have about a quarter of fuel left in your fuel gauge/tank, then pour a bottle of B-12 chemtool cleaner (Walmart/Amazon) to clean the entire fuel tank, fuel supply lines, fuel rail on the engine, fuel injectors, old spark plugs, pistons & lower cylinders of old fuel residues, gum & varnish deposited over the years. You will notice the effects within 20-25 miles of driving. Some people are a fan of Seafoam, Liquimoly or Techron, but nothing works to dissolve old fuel residues like B-12 chemtool, but don't touch or inhale it while pouring, it's very strong, so pour it in an open area using a funnel fitted into your fuel tank.
I love old cars cuz it realy shows how much effort you will put into it
Love this content
Love your channel bro
beat up?thats the best looking 90s corolla ive seen in a while lol
Semi gloss black is best
Great for wipers too! Thanks for the video 👍🇨🇦🐿
