Congrats on your new car and taking a dive into the tuning scene!

The car hobby is very rewarding and there's nothing like sitting back and appreciating your build as it comes along. The best way to learn is to jump right into it and get your hands dirty. Determine goals for your car, based on what you want it to be able to do. Research a lot and try to do as much of the work as you feel confident doing. Be thorough and persistant, and always do the adequate research before doing or buying anything.

It's gonna be frustrating at times. When you tinker with cars, things always seem to go wrong even with the simplest tasks (i.e. Replacing my mudflap...turns out a bracket was bent and ruined the thread on the screw, ended up spending an hour trying to fix it) but don't be discouraged!

Don't do everything all at once.. take your time to thoroughly enjoy each mod that you do. It's much more satisfying that way. All in all, it's gonna be a fun ride =)
