You made it past the clunker police, so now what. You can turn your clunker into classic with a few automotive accessories that will change your vehicle appearance without sending you to the poor house. Start with the automotive interior, that's where you spend your time and will get the most driving pleasure. Car mats should be the first thing to replace. If you are on a budget a nice universal set will freshen the interior just fine. For a little more money go with custom fit car mats. It is a nicer look and these mats are less likely to slide around. Most suppliers are willing to send color samples for color verification, if you ask.

Seat covers are another automotive accessory that seems to really pay dividends. With the number of patterns and materials that are available, you are sure to find a seat cover to please. There are universal fit seat covers available but they are generally not a good choice. A universal seat cover has play in it and is not as eye-catching as a custom fit seat cover.

For the automotive exterior, work on the paint finish to get your most bang for the buck. Most car paint finishes can use some help in the paint luster department. Over time the sun, acid rain, and road debris act to lessen the glow of your paint finish. A good auto paint sealant will change all that. Spend some time preparing the paint surface with a good nonabrasive rubbing compound then apply a true paint sealant. A wax or polish are short lived. A sealant will bond to the paint surface and create a paint luster that will last a long time.

Any of these three automotive accessories will add value to your vehicle. Do all three and, who knows, you could go from clunker to classic.

Our cars are one of the most expensive items we own. Whether yours is new or used, it's not cheap. When you buy a car, you look at the car and the deal far more closely than you might a pair of shoes! Most people want to keep their car running dependably and looking good. Changing the oil every 3,000 miles, getting tune-ups and maintenance work done on schedule all contribute to the dependability factor. Where most of us fall down is in maintaining the interior. In addition to having an outdoor car cover to protect your asset, you should also do yourself a favor and invest in car seat covers. There are two major reasons why this investment makes good sense.

First, the vinyl, fabric or leather seat covers that come from the manufacturer look nice on the showroom floor. However, once exposed to the elements?the heat of summer, or the cold temps of winter, it doesn't matter?those nice looking car seat covers begin to gradually deteriorate, with every hour they're exposed to sun, heat and icy temperatures. The second reason you'd do well to invest in these car accessories is for added comfort while driving your car. Some of the covers that come standard on your car are subject to heating and cooling. Haven't you come out of the grocery store, on a hot summer's day and scorched the back of your legs on a hot seat? Ouch! When the weather's chilly, you also don't want to have the same experience in reverse! The right car seat covers eliminate both these problems, while protecting your factory seat covers from stains, tears and burns, if you have a smoker in your household. If you've got kids riding in your car, the necessity for seat covers is a no-brainer!

Every auto accessory store stocks a plentiful supply of car seat covers, in a range of prices and materials. Most are usually made to fit several models. Just let the clerk know what the make and model of your car is to be directed to those which will fit your car.

You'll find plain fabric, sheepskin look types, soft velours and sturdier fabrics in plaid designs, which are popular with pickup truck owners. Yes, the variety available does allow you to make a fashion statement with your vehicle! Plain or fancy, sturdy or soft, patterned or of a solid color, you'll be able to find a set of car seat covers which enhances the look of your car, showing a little 'personality', while acquiring a little extra comfort to boot.

Fashion and comfort notwithstanding, the biggest advantage to installing car seat covers is demonstrated when you decide to sell your car. Those pristine seats underneath will boost that resale value considerably!

Some car fanatics have a real zeal for renovating and refurbishing antique cars, their only restriction being their level of know-how and their expendable income. Hunting down the rarer accessories can be challenging, but it is possible to find the antique car parts you need.

For example, you wouldn't find the fabric covering for the interior of a 1956 Buick's roof in a normal shop; however, it would be possible to order this online. If you are prepared to search for it, you could even find cotton nap materials for a Buick in the 1940s to 1960s in the initial shade and fabric originally employed by General Motors.

It is important to realize that the majority of antique car parts you unearth will not likely be the materials that the manufacturer originally used in building the first model of that car. This is because after some years, manufacturers pass on the manufacturing of substitution parts to manufacturers, known as "aftermarket manufacturers." With the original manufacturer, you would be assured of a flawless match and could be certain the part would do its job perfectly. However, the aftermarket manufactures make the parts in similar condition and quality as the original manufacturer in the hope of gaining customer loyalty.

The popularity of antique cars in America make the market for antique car parts very worthwhile. Different generations attend the car fairs where antiques cars are shown and spot the models of their first cars from their youth. This might bring back a flood of memories and emotions from their younger days igniting a desire to own one again.

The aftermarket for antique car parts is flourishing, but there will be times when a specific tool or accessory you need can't be found. It might be that only limited quantities were originally created, and they have possibly already been taken. When there is no other option, it may be that a metal shop can make a new one to fit your order. It would be beneficial to keep the original piece to match the measurements, but any decent machine shop will be able to verify if making a replacement is feasible.

An orphan car, which is a car where the nameplate no longer exists, may present a special challenge in tracing needed parts. From 1929 to 1931, Indiana manufactured a car called a Cord, which is a case in point of an orphan car. Another example would be the car manufactured from 1939 to 1952 in Cincinnati, Ohio called a Crosley model.

There are various grounds and reasons for these cars disappearing from the public arena, including refusing to modernize among many other factors. However, a yearly car fair that takes place in Ypsilanti, Michigan attracts enthusiasts of all sorts of obscure car models to one place, making it a valuable resource for discovering where or how to obtain the antique car part you need.

Floor mats are an important addition to any vehicle. When it comes to the inside of a car, no area receives more dirt, water, wear and tear than the floor. We step on it, kick it, throw snow, sand, and mud on it - if our floors were living creatures, we'd be thrown in prison for the way we treat them. All of this abuse takes its toll on car and truck floors, but car floor mats can protect our vehicles, and make previously abused vehicles look new.

The ravages of dirt and moisture

Every time someone gets into a car they bring along unnoticed passengers in the form of dirt and water. Without car floor mats, this debris is left to soak into the vehicle's carpet, where it destroys the fibers, causes stains, and even penetrates past the carpet, to the metal surface of the car floor. Excessive water accumulation during wet or snowy seasons can penetrate the carpet and damage the metal to the point of causing rust, deterioration, and even holes in the under-carriage of any car, van, or truck. The floor of every vehicle needs to be protected from these contaminants.

The rejuvenating effect

A car floor mat is not only a great way to protect a vehicle's carpet and undercarriage, but it is also an effective way to update, accent, and beautify any vehicle. From feminine pinks to trucker metal, car mats come in all colors, all styles, and many designs. Vinyl and rubber floor mats protect a car's floor, while also adding a tough, rugged look to sports cars, work vans, and trucks. Floor mats can even be personalized with names, initials, characters, and company logos. Carpeted mats are perfect for any application, particularly passenger cars, sports cars, and mini vans.

Simple to install and inexpensive to purchase - an attractive accessory for any car owner. Not only make your car look good, but by protecting the floor they keep your car showroom new, increasing vehicle value at trade-in. During rainy or snowy seasons, rubber floor mats are an excellent choice to put on top of carpeted mats, keeping rain, snow, and road salt out of your car's carpet, where it could damage the fibers and metal foundation. From protecting a vehicle, to simply updating and accessorizing, floor mats provide a unique, attractive, customized accessory option, perfect for any car and driver.

No doubt are a welcome addition to any car, truck, SUV or van and both protect and compliment your interior.
