The Russian auto industry does not inspire much confidence, but it is very popular among the population due to its affordability. It also features a low service cost. Almost all domestic cars can be repaired in a garage without having much experience in this. However, all models are in need of improvement. For example, how can you improve the miracle of the Volga automobile plant - VAZ 21099?

Instructions
Step 1
Decide for yourself what you want to change in your "nine" and how much money you are willing to spend on this improvement. In order to make the right decision to improve the car, you need to proceed from the purposes for which the car was purchased. If it is intended for trips to the country, then the improvement should consist in increasing ground clearance, upgrading the suspension and installing a roof rack. If you are young and want to make a car that people will pay attention to out of your nondescript car, then this option is not for you.
Step 2
Take care of the appearance of your "swallow". Examine the paintwork and make a conclusion about its condition. If there are minor defects on it, then polishing the body can correct them. If there are minor scratches, then they must be carefully painted over with paint to match the color of your car. Well, if there are too many problems with the body, then a complete body repair with full painting should be done.
Step 3
Consider anti-corrosion coating. In winter, very strong reagents are used that can cause irreparable damage to your car. Please note that the body of the VAZ 21099 is susceptible to corrosion, therefore, anti-corrosion treatment must be carried out regularly.
Step 4
Changes may also affect the car's interior. You can make seat covers yourself or buy ready-made ones. It is highly discouraged to replace the standard steering wheel, as experiments have shown that the standard nine steering wheel is less traumatic than its tuning counterparts. Add additional lighting, but in such a way that it does not dazzle your eyes. Use soft and neutral tones.
Step 5
Also replace all filters and consumables with new ones. You can use imported counterparts, as they are more durable. Add imported oil. When modernizing a car, it is highly discouraged to use body kits, of which there are now a lot. This is money wasted. Such body kits, as a rule, worsen the dynamics and significantly reduce the ground clearance. You can easily damage such a body kit when passing a speed bump.
