One of the most popular game mechanics in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas was car customization. A first for the series, we were finally able to match our car to our preferred style as we played through the game. However, if we haven’t played any of the newer GTA games, this might be a confusing process.

Customizing your car is easy if you know where to look. At several points throughout the map shown below, there are icons indicating the locations of mod shops, which is where you customize your car. Some shops specialize in specific types of cars, so that is something to take into account when searching for a mod shop.
