    What mods will come back into the "car scene" for 2017

    So guys, what car modifications do you think will make a come back this year and why?

    I'll start it off

    Curb feelers - because nobody likes wrecking their rims and they have that "look I have something out of the ordinary on my car" status

    I've recently seen a car with underbody lighting. Colour changing, and everything.

    Under-glow lighting isn't a bad shout to be honest, seen a lot of that very recently

    I would say underglow is already back in, towards the back end of last year i saw a hell of a lot of cars with underglow lol.

    Strobe ligthts also seem to be a thing now for whatever reason other than giving epileptic people grief.

    LED lighting in general is coming back I think, I've seen a few cars around running lights behind grills, underneath, inside etc. Audio installs won't be far behind when people see how shoddy their 20 year old boot carpet looks when glowing neon blue lol.

    Body graphics seems to be having a bit of a resurgence too, have seen a few (mostly shoddy) examples recently.

    ^love a good shag carpet. There's nothing quite like loosing your nuts in it and spending hours playing around trying to get them out.

    I'm a +1 for under car lighting, in fact I might just nip to b&q for a fluroscent now
