Hyundai Genesis

Original
Modified


The new Hyundai Genesis is quite a significant car for Hyundai. It is a rear wheel drive luxury sedan that basically competes with cars that cost $10 000 - $20 000 more. The only problem is the design is overly bland. The design for the target market shouldn't be too cutting edge, but most people have said that the design is too boring. I have made a few changes to the windows, doors, wheels, and tail lights to upgrade this design a bit. I kept it fairly conservative, but I think the new designs are what the car should have looked like.

I couldn't find the original picture, but here is a similar one from Prestige Imports on Ebay. I changed the rear lights to make them fit with the design of the car, the original lights are too square and ruin the otherwise good design of the car. The new ones I made are similar to the Q7 or Avant lights.

AfterBefore

Here is my update to the BMW 3 series sedan, the 325i. The back lights now look a lot cleaner and the car looks more refined.

2009 Honda Pilot

After

Before

The new Honda Pilot is actually a downgrade in terms of styling. The front headlights are enormous and ugly, and the grill has a very bad design for such a vehicle. The body and windows are also very bland, and so I have made the necessary changes to turn this into a higher end SUV. The original photo is taken from Autoblog.
