USA DIY Mods

I am just starting to upgrade my Rolla S '09 and was wondering what are the simple do-it -yourself mods you can do for your car. I'm not a car mechanic tho. Just simple enough that you wouldn't have to bring it in a auto shop for upgrades.

Disable your DRL.

Hmm, this reminds me to try something else. I'll post pics later if I do it.

It looks a lot cleaner to lots of people without the emblems.
