TheWall0211 Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Hello. I just bought my son his first car - a blue 2016 Edge Sport. He loves it and we’d like to mod it a little together. I’m curious if anyone is recommendations for easy father/son projects (and keep in mind he’s a new driver, so I don’t want to build a rocket ship). I’d love a recommendation on a good quad tip exhaust we can bolt on (no welding pls). Anything else you all would recommend? Thanks in advance! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Sure. First create a "My Key" for your teenage son. Set the maximum speed and volume for the radio. Better he drive safely (and boring) than the alternative. Father/son projects? Conside a ceramic coating for the paint. Nothing says "hot" like a high gloss paint job. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a responsible kid who has lived away from home since he was 13 thanks to sports. id love a referral on a dual exhaust tip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handfiler Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 Painting the rear wheel hubs to get rid of the rust would be a low cost high reward mod. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onyxbfly Posted September 28, 2022 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 If she has halogens, swapping in some HIDs could make a nice Sunday afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and No. It all depends on the options/ equipment group that your car came with. That being said even if she does have HID you can upgrade them. I'm currently running Osram Cool Blue Intense. I purchased them a few years ago and they have even better HIDs available now! You didn't mention which package your edge came with. You can add it to your signature.

Haz Posted September 28, 2022 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 Your Edge's VIN show's it has the optional HID headlights... Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck! that’s good, I suppose, but the headlights are still really dim. I’d love to get referrals for brighter bulbs I can swap out - at least on the regular headlights.
