Car in need of a new look? Car styling is the solution!

Have you bought a car and would like to personalise it? If so, read this article as we take a closer look at the options for doing so. As soon as you get into your new car, the process of personalisation actually begins. You adjust the seat properly, adjust the mirror position and put the key on your keychain. However, there are many more ways to customise your car to your personal preferences.

What types of car styling are there?

Some people like to have a little doll on the dashboard or something hanging from the interior mirror. This could be a good luck symbol or something that clearly reflects what the car’s owner is into a lot. For instance, there are cars with a child’s crafts, as well as cars with a judo suit on the interior mirror. Apart from this kind of superficial personalisation, you can also opt for deeper car styling. Think, for example, of choosing sports tyres with extra-wide rims or with a special rim plate.

In addition, you can (have) certain parts of the car painted in a different colour, for example the roof and mirrors, or a stripe along the length. Instead of paint, you can also choose to put stickers on the car or windows. However, you have to pay attention to the legal provisions here, as the windows must maintain sufficient visibility. If this is not the case, you are in violation and can be fined.

What is also quite popular is fitting another radio/CD player with additional speakers. In some cars, half the rear boot is filled with subwoofers and other boxes for optimal sound experience.

In terms of sound, another popular option is to replace the exhaust (or have it replaced). For example, you can opt for a sports exhaust. This looks nice but also affects the power and noise the car makes. They are available in black coated steel and full stainless steel, among others.

Car styling under the bonnet

Besides car styling on the outside, you can also make some changes under the bonnet. For example, you can choose to use chromed parts or apply stainless steel sheathing to the pipes and hoses. It is also possible to have the engine compartment painted in the same colour as the car.

Conclusion

The bottom line is that there are many things you can do to adapt your car styling to your needs and ideas. Some changes are more costly than others and, of course, you should always make sure that your car remains safe and meets all legal requirements.
