Usually seen on cars, a body kit can be made out of fiberglass, carbon fiber, or polyurethane. Body kits are not limited to cars however. Truck, SUV, and even motercycle owners have been known to install body kits. If your goal is speed, than carbon fiber is the best material for the job. However, it does have its downsides such as cost and installation difficulty. Commonly accepted amongst most modders is polyurethane. It’s cost effective and easy to install. In general, body kits are installed for looks and not actual performance. The original purpose of a body kit was to deflect air around the car, and not under it, thus helping in the aerodynamics for certain motor sports such as drag racing and road racing. Adding a body kit to your vehicle will not only create an added aesthetic appeal, but also enhance the handling of your vehicle. This is achieved by the extra downforce created by the body kit which will make for a safer vehicle for you and your family. However, generally you will not see a significant performance difference once it’s installed. Mods done to the side skirts, front and rear bumpers, and the spolier are among the most common.Previously most modders bought kits that comprised of similiar looking pieces. However as times changed, people are starting to mix and match kits to get a cool look.
Noticing the growing trend, automakers have now started installing body kits by default. However, a lot of the factory installations are considered pointless, and modders are opting for after market kits.
