While a good body kit such as a lip kit or even a flare fender kit can look great if you go too crazy…or cheap it will show. Once you have selected your desired look it’s important to attach and paint the kit correctly. Attaching the front and rear bumper covers is a simple process. Remove the old covers and line up the new ones to check for fitment. Then do the same with the side skirts to check for desired ground clearance and fitment. Not to mention this is a good time to take a look and be sure the looks are what you are going for.
Now the kit should be painted, Preferably the same color as the car. Remember to take into account the color of the primer since this will have an effect on the final color. Once the units are painted attach them to the car being sure that they fit just like the factory units. Some kits will need to be modified to fit correctly, this may seem like a lot of work but having a great looking car will be worth it.
Once you have the kit mounted now reattach any fog lights or turn signals into the proper locations and the car should be ready to go. Be sure to pick wheels that match well to the theme you are going for. If you have a sport looking kit, light racing wheels make a good choice to complete the look. With a heavy bulky looking kit, chrome wheels may complete the look in a nice way. Just be sure that you check how things look before you buy them since sometimes good looking pieces may not look good together.
