Tuning Toyota Corolla 100 body + photo

If you are the owner of a Toyota Corolla model ae100, you know how varied tuning the 100 body can be.

As motorists themselves confirm, there is nothing surprising or unexpected in the fact that tuning the Corolla 100 is so popular and in demand. Thanks to the opportunities provided by professional craftsmen and modern high-tech equipment, you can not only improve the appearance of your own car, as well as give it some exclusivity, but also significantly improve its quality, performance, and technical parameters. However, before you decide to tune your own vehicle, you need to seriously study this issue.

Body tuning of Corolla AE100

The Toyota Corolla model in the 100th body has been produced since 1991, so the desire of the owners to improve the appearance of the car is understandable, especially since recently many companies have appeared that produce parts and tuning elements of good quality. Aerodynamic body kits will help give the Corolla AE100 a certain amount of elegance and a modern look. A set of such products consists of two bumpers, a spoiler and threshold pads.

Several companies produce these designs; we recommend choosing products marked RS.

The front bumper from the tuning kit changes the appearance of the car, smoothing out the corners of the AE 100 body, and looks great with larger air intakes for better cooling of the radiator and brake pads. The lower skirt of the aerodynamic body kit has stiffening ribs and protects the body from damage.

The rear bumper is placed on a special compound of sealant and glue and fixed in standard mounts. This tuning detail visually lowers the ground clearance somewhat and adds some power to the shape of the rear of the car. The side sills of the Corolla AE 100 body make the appearance more sporty and a little aggressive.

The kit also includes a spoiler, which is usually installed on the roof and secured using self-tapping screws or glass sealant. This structural element improves the aerodynamic qualities of the car and gives the roofline a distinctive style and sophistication.

You can add more elegance to the body by installing plastic fender liners. These tuning elements, also called lockers, reduce noise when driving and protect the body from corrosion. This tuning method is not particularly difficult for car enthusiasts; the kits fit perfectly onto standard mounts. Modernizing a sedan body is practically no different from working on a station wagon body.

Optics tuning

Recently, alternative optics have been used to improve headlight design. This tuning is presented in the form of modular kits separately for high beam, low beam and dimensions. Modular products of this type are installed instead of standard optics.

When purchasing kits, make sure that they contain modular lenses.

If for some reason the modules are not installed in their standard places, then IPF HID XD41 xenon lamps will be suitable for the Corolla AE100. Manufacturers offer xenon with ready-made wiring and 15 amp fuses, which you can install yourself.

If you want to position your car in a special way, then pay attention to the tint film for head optics. This tuning component is produced in different colors and formats. Smart people advise using films with light shades. They not only highlight the headlights beautifully, but also protect the optics from small stones and sand.

Off-road tuning of the Land Cruiser 100 starts with the wheels

When you start “off-road” tuning of the Land Cruiser 100, you first need to choose tires . After determining the size, their type and model are selected. It should be taken into account that for Land Cruiser 100 SUVs, the MT class of tires is universal, and the XT and higher classes are classified as mud tires. AT tires are the most comfortable on asphalt , but off-road they can seriously let you down.

If you are tuning the Land Cruiser 100 to increase its off-road capability, then first consider installing universal MT tires : GoodYear Wrangler or BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain or Nokian RockProof.

If you are going to drive on asphalt, then for modification choose quiet and comfortable AT tires : GoodYear Wrangler Duratrac or BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2.

Interior modernization

Ordinary rugs will help transform the interior of your car into some semblance of home comfort. They are usually made of polyurethane, but there are products made of wool and impregnated fabric. Their colors can be very diverse, but the latest options, unfortunately, do not retain moisture well. They are undoubtedly beautiful and elegant, but owners still prefer polyurethane rugs.

When choosing rugs, try to ensure that their shape is identical to the shape of the bottom of the car, and the sides of the products must be high.
