Sorry if I sound like an ass, but in all your threads you're asking about doing custom things as you don't have enough money to pay for much. But, well, custom stuff if very difficult if you have no skills with cars whatsoever. And you don't seem to be willing to put in the hard work, especially since you just ask here before even looking around online for info about whatever you're asking. So perhaps you should just leave your car alone, get a job, and save up for a newer car?
