1. Toyota of Orlando walks you through creating a
custom Toyota car
Creating a custom Toyota car is a great way to personalize your ride to your very specific drive
time needs. Sure, there are tons of options out there - even if you’re only shopping Orlando
Toyotas, you’ll still have a huge variety of choices to consider given all the models and trim-
levels up for grabs. However, for some drivers that’s just not enough and they need to take
customization to the next level (we get it).
Where should you start when creating a custom Toyota car?
When you create a custom Toyota car, however, it’s important to explore the best way to do it
before you begin. This can save you a lot of time, money, and frustration. Check out our tips
straight from our Toyota of N Orlando parts experts to help you get moving on your custom
Toyota car project.
Step 1: Before you start, choose which car you’re going to customize.
In order to be able to envision the final product, you need to first decide which Orlando Toyota
you’re going to customize. There are so many options available to you and it’s important to nail
one down before you start buying parts. Remember - cars that are popular and made to be
custom Toyota cars, like the Toyota 86, will already have a ton of car parts and accessories
2. available for customization. Cars that are older are less popular may cost you a bit more time
and money when it comes to finding parts.
Step 2: Decide on the theme or look of your vehicle as a finished product.
What will your car look like when all is said and done? Figure this out BEFORE you start buying
parts for your custom Toyota car. It’s easy to overspend and buy things you don’t need when
shopping car parts and accessories - there’s so much cool stuff out there. Define your vision
before you buy and stick to it to ensure you’re not wasting time or money.
Step 3: Figure out what you can DIY.
What can you DIY? Labor is a big cost when creating a custom Toyota car, so if you can do
anything yourself and save the cost of labor it’ll put more money in your pocket. (And then you
can use that money to buy more parts.) But don’t get in over your head - if you don’t know how
to do a particular installation or need all-new tools to do it, then it may not me worth it.
Step 4: Set a budget for parts and labor before you start buying.
Before you start buying parts, set a budget for them. You don’t want to get in over your head
with spending and blow your budget out of the water. And when you’re setting your budget
and pricing out parts, be sure to consider labor costs.
