Project Accent

To start things off, I bought this accent for $900 in an effort to save money on my 70 mile round trip to/from work. Now, after doing some reading on this and a few other forums I have decided to get the most bang for my $900 that I can.

As-Is MPG: 35
Intermediate Goal MPG: 40


The start: If you haven't noticed the front end of a 99 Accent has a big gaping hole in the lower front.



Steps taken:
Removed Side window wind deflectors
Coroplast Covered the Center of the bumper
Bought HubCaps (going to mod them to the PizzaPan style this week)



Updates to come.

Your Opinions are welcome.
