Benefits of Vehicle Customization

It’s a lot of fun to customize either a new or used car. There are tons of great ways to do it, including fresh paint, window tinting, installing lift kits, and adding other cool features. 

Island CDJR has its own selection of custom vehicles, but there are several ways to enhance even an old classic car. We’ll show you a few examples and explain why folks enjoy doing it.

Benefits of Vehicle Customization

1. Enhance Performance

   • Drivers who want to go faster like to augment their vehicles with exhaust systems and air intake systems. They make a vast difference, but always get a pro to install it for you. Suspension systems are another great option for limiting the bumps and bruises you take while driving rockier roads (more on that below).

2. Boost Appearance

   • We mentioned painting your car, but there are many other visual enhancements you can try. Window tinting has become very popular in some places (depending on state regulations) to cancel out UV rays from the sun. You can even protect your car with special paint sealant and synthetic coating. Don’t forget about interior aesthetics. There you can make modifications with seat/steering wheel covers, refurbish the fabric with Nappa leather, and even try out new audio accessories (speakers, amps, subwoofers, etc.).

3. Drive Safer

   • Safety features are much more advanced than they were in decades past. There is a slew of new gizmos that come with newer vehicles’ electronic layout. While you may have trouble customizing or adding things like cameras and lane-change assistance, many vehicle owners will add side airbags if they don’t already have them. Those make a big difference for your passengers if you ever have the misfortune of suffering a t-bone collision.

4. Add Many Useful Features

   • As you know, we offer several new and used Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram models. When folks get their new Jeep, they often seek to make it even more off-road ready with lift kits. A lift kit adds even more ground clearance, thus protecting your vehicle while you pursue any terrain in America.

   • There’s so much you can do with Jeeps, but there are also a lot of useful modifications for pickup trucks. Do you struggle to get in and out of a high-riding vehicle? That’s no problem if you add some truck steps or a nerf bar to help you ascend into your massive ride.
