Default Some simple mods I’d like to do to my 09

Change the awful antenna. I so wish they didn’t offset it because it would be nice to put a shark fin on.

tint...it’ll happen soon

change all the wood to some sort of wrap...like black wood or piano black. My daughter (her car) loves the old style burl so that ain’t happenin’! 😂 these kids!

Fix a slightly worn armrest - looking into some filler and some SEM paint, seems easy!😬

install a VAIStech Bluetooth receiver - hopefully they sound good.

things I’d love and will never do...push button start, headlight swap for modern LED (can I just change some bulbs!?!?) - maybe repaint the roof rack and rails silver to match the wheels? They did that on the next gen and I like the look!

any thoughts?🥂

Why not upgrade to the gen3 front brakes? A pr of reman gen3 calipers/rotors & pads, flush out the old fluid w/ new dot3.....Why mess w/ the lumber if she likes it.......Perhaps you paint your kitchen cabinets vs leaving the natural wood...
