Modifying Existing or OEM Parts to Get the Body Kit Unique Look

A cost effective way to give your project a unique look is to modify the existing parts rather then replacing them with new.  New body kits always require a certain skill level to fit them properly.  OEM parts don't require the same work, so modifying the OEM parts is normally more cost effective.  We can cut out scoops, vents, lip kits etc and fit them to your parts to give you a custom look like no other car.

We can modify Urethane's, Plastics and Composites like: Fiberglass, Carbon Fiber and most plastics.  Very few shops can modify composite parts, even fewer can properly modify urethane.  We happen to have the experienced with both.

As always we welcome questions / comment to any of the posts within this Blog.  But please use the estimate link on the main menu for estimates.

Also worth noting is the common lip kit.  These are typically less expensive to purchase, can be molded in with great results and extremely durable.  Using the method we pioneered;  the last molded urethane lip kit we installed has been in service for over 3 years with no cracking.  Lip kits can add an amazing look and when molded properly, give your OEM bumper a body kit look without the typical headaches associated with fiberglass.  Urethane's are normally more durable because of their flexible properties, but are less effective as an aerodynamic tool because of that flexibility.
