Body kits are the most common ways to mod cars by serious auto enthusiasts. They are customized parts of a car's exterior that can be fitted to improve the car's working while giving it the killer looks. Ever wanted a sports car? Surely, you would've thought it was impossible for you to afford one. But the good news is - all you need is a good custom body kit!
Almost all aspects of a car's external appearance can be modified with body kits. They can be separate parts or whole packages for a complete makeover.
Body kits are of special interest to racing enthusiasts. Every part of a car's exterior can be modified to give it an edge. While the individual improvements are not very big, it is the collective result that turns a meek family car into a mean racing machine.
A well designed set of improvements include front hood and grill, bumpers, spoilers and roof scoops. It is a pity that most people go for the customizations just for the sake of looks. A wrong set of modifications can leave a car's aerodynamics crippled, reducing fuel efficiency by up to 20-30%. It can also lead to increased strain on the car body. And of course, a wrong set of modifications can leave your car looking like a punk.
Bumpers are used to increase the down force on the car to keep it to the ground when traveling at high speeds. If not properly installed, they can cause the car to flip at dangerous speeds. Low bumpers also give the car a mean look that is instantly noticed. A combination of good front and rear bumpers, along with side skirts is a great way to increase a car's aerodynamics. By reducing the amount of air that goes to the car's belly, a lot of unnecessary drag can be avoided.
Modified grills and hoods that come with auto body kits improve the air flow into the car's front end, with the engine and other important parts in it. This keeps the engine from getting over heated, thus ensuring optimal performance. They also give the car a rich look like a Rolls Royce or a limo. A grill with a fake logo can go a great way to make your car look cooler in today's brand-conscious world.
Body kits can be purchased from any local auto repair shops and showrooms. Many companies also come with factory fitted modifications that ensure perfect fit. The painted graphics on the modifications can be chosen by the car owner to get that dream car! Several themed graphics packs are available with body kits. Body kits are the way to go for adding style to your car. It instantly gives your car the look of a sports vehicle that is not to be messed with.
A good auto body kit can take you from being a gaper to a gape-e! So go on and try to find one that suits your pocket and car. And start living the cool life!
