The Hottest Trends In Car Customization, Choose Wisely
posted in Auto Repair |Whether you’re just starting to customize your car or you’re a longtime street rodder, you’re always looking for the latest and greatest ways to customize your car and make it stand out from the rest of the pack. Here are some of the hottest trends in car customization to help you choose wisely:Lambo DoorsLambo doors are one of the hottest trends for custom cars available today. Lambo doors are installed using a kit. The kit includes special hinges that, when installed, allow your car doors to swing up instead of out. Getting in or out of your car using a lambo door is a great way to attract attention to your custom car. It’s important to get a good quality lambo hinge kit though, as you certainly don’t want your doors falling off instead of going up! A typical lambo door kit should include a pair of gas struts as well as hinges.Suicide DoorsSuicide doors are another hot trend for custom car enthusiasts. A suicide door is basically a door that opens the opposite direction from where it was installed. Many sports cars and sports coupes from the first half of the 20th century included suicide doors including some Fiat’s and Bugatti models. A typical suicide door kit should include four steel hinges, arms, pivots and latches.Shaved Door HandlesShaved door handles sounds funny, but it’s actually very simple. A car with shaved door handles has simply had it’s door handles “shaved” off, so that the door is smooth and there is no outward handle. With a shaved door handle, you use a remote control to pop open your door instead of using a latch or handle. A shaved door handle is a popular trend since it smooths out the appearance of the doors on a vehicle. In addition, the trunk handle can also be shaved, where you use a remote control to open the trunk as well. A typical shaved door handle kit will include a standard remote, pre-wired internal relays, solenoids, as well as all the cables and clamps needed for installation.HID KitsHID Kits are special lights that you can install on your custom car. HID stands for “High Intensity Discharge”, which basically means that it will make your lights whiter and brighter than standard headlights. HID lights allow you to see things in your headlights in a more realistic light. HID lights also allow you to see farther than standard lights. HID kits are also available in different colors, including blue, purple and yellow. A typical HID kit will include ballasts with starters, good quality wiring, weather resistant plugs, as well as installation instructions.Whatever kind of kit you choose, whatever style you want to convey to other vehicles passing by, it’s most important to stay safe on the road. So choose your customizations well.
