With Only $100 to Spare, She Made This Rusty Car Look Brand New

Doing a car makeover on your own may seem intimidating and expensive at first. But as one couple demonstrated on Reddit, it doesn’t have to be either of those things.

Reddit user autounity and his girlfriend started off with a 1999 Corolla, which was given to them by friends. The car ran well and had surprisingly low miles on it considering its year. But the Corolla wasn’t perfect. It had mismatched colors of paint, as well as an unsightly layer of rust on it. So it’s totally understandable why they might have been tempted to get it professionally painted or redecorated. But instead, they were up for the challenge of doing a car makeover right in the driveway on their own.

And we’re really glad they did. For less than $100, they were able to work their magic on the automobile and transform it into any driver’s dream come true. After looking through their genius, budget-friendly process, we’re all feeling inspired to update our own cars at home, too. Who knows; after seeing the final touch, you just may be, too!
