Changes affecting the interior
1. The radiator grille is endowed with the role of not only a decorative element, but can also please with its practicality. This is expressed in the throughput of the oncoming air flow for cooling the radiator honeycombs of the cooling system.
There are several options for transforming the appearance of this element:
- painting in a color similar to the body coating;
- lining the grille or replacing it with a more sophisticated analogue.
On the market you can find many companies selling modified front grilles, this can be seen from numerous photos. They are often more effective than original products. Some workshops can make a custom grille based on your wishes.
We recommend using these parts if there is a need for deeper and more “advanced” tuning of Renault Logan.
2. Next, the front bumper will need modification. In addition, you can get overlays. This category of bumpers is endowed with increased strength and resistance to low-temperature atmospheric conditions. To replace the bumper, you will need to carry out a number of mandatory disassembly operations yourself. This will save the owner from the cost of workshop services. If you decide to tune the “French” Renault Logan, then replacing the bumper is “vitally” necessary, since this gives the exterior a unique charisma, and can also increase the efficiency of air cooling of units located in the depths of the engine compartment.
3. Stern bumper. After installing a “fresh” front bumper, neglecting to replace the rear similar element will be a blasphemous act. The choice of bumper should imply post-installation harmony with other exterior elements, for example, headlights.
4. The next stage when complex tuning is carried out can reasonably be considered the installation of new and effective optics. If you are inclined to modify old headlights, then this procedure is unlikely to lead to the expected effect. Therefore, we recommend getting new headlights. After installing the new optics, LED elements need to be integrated into its body. The rear headlights already have diode emitters in the factory version.
If you set out to implement such tuning in Renault Logan, you can achieve a high-quality result, because the new lighting equipment will not leave most passers-by indifferent.
5. Next, we resort to installing light-alloy wheels with low-profile tires. If you want to tune Renault Logan, the parameters of the specified elements will be as follows:
- disc radius – R-16;
- Tire size – 205*50*R16.
These modifications are recommended to be carried out in conjunction with measures to modernize the suspension. 6. When tuning is carried out, you should not neglect the modification of chassis elements. It would be advisable to install more efficient brakes:
- larger diameter disks;
- calipers with pads that improve braking efficiency.
Modifications of this nature should be carried out if you intend to operate a Renault Logan car in extreme conditions.
The continuation when tuning the suspension yourself is to replace the shock absorber struts with stiffer damping elements. Here, the installation of stiffer springs is considered a mandatory and effective measure.
7. Transformations in the interior can take on a varied character. The instrument panel is usually modified to improve the aesthetics of its appearance. There are ready-made versions for this element in the market network. It is also possible to modify the panel yourself. But for this option, the owner must have certain skills. Due to the rare nature of some panel parts, refinishing it yourself can be a long-term process or a dead end.
8. To modernize interior panels, many owners are inclined to purchase ready-made elements. In the photo or video you can see the finishing options and choose the most harmonious one according to your preference. These spare parts have their own functions, as well as individual color shades. Most elements can be replaced by hand without much difficulty.

Typically, this (professionally performed) procedure will cost half the cost of the car itself. However, there are many ways to modify the Logan’s interior: you can change the audio system, steering wheel, and even completely redo the interior...
Budget: 10,000 rubles
— Install another audio system if for some reason you are not satisfied with the standard one. For example, a rear “acoustic” shelf will cost about 2,000 rubles, replacing speakers will cost about 6,000 rubles. Subwoofer – another 10,000. There is no price ceiling in terms of multimedia; if you get carried away, the tuning budget can exceed the cost of the Renault Logan itself...
Production or delivery time: components are in stock. If you give the car to professionals for modification, the work will take about a week.
— Threshold covers (and stickers) of various designs in a set of four pieces – from 2,700 rubles.
Production or delivery time: In stock.
— No on-board computer? The problem can be solved for 4,000 – 6,000 rubles.

Production or delivery time: if you find it in stock.
— You can install a fuel pressure regulator with a pressure gauge. Such a part from Prosport will cost about 3,000 rubles.

Budget: 50,000 rubles
Due to the low popularity of expensive modifications in the interior, there is practically no supply for them. Basically, audio components and the cost of installation work fall into this category.
Budget: 100,000 rubles
— One of the most expensive jobs on a car is reupholstering the interior. Moreover, the price will be influenced by both the number of parts being altered and the quality of the materials used. The so-called “standard salon” (seats, rear sofa, headrests, door inserts) in St. Petersburg salons costs from 70,000 rubles. A complete remodel will cost even more, and there is practically no price ceiling.
Production time: “Standard salon” can be received in a week. The more parts that undergo alteration, the longer the work will take.
DIY sound in Logan
Acoustics are very important for driving comfort. To install a high-quality system with your own hands, you will need to enlist the advice of professionals.
The criteria for successful selection and installation of acoustics are as follows.
- First of all, you should select the right components to ensure their compatibility. This will allow you to achieve enviable sound quality.
- The next point is the correct installation of loudspeakers. The location and fixation of the speakers play a significant role, since rattling interior panels will negate all the efforts of the Renault Logan owner.
If you are not confident in achieving success in this aspect, then it is recommended to contact car audio specialists.
