Some Fun Customization Ideas to Try in 2023

  1. Enhance & Protect the Exterior Paint
    • Nowadays, it’s all the rage to add a custom paint job and/or apply car wrap to protect the finished product. If you’re a Jeep fan, you already know what we mean. There are only dozens of ways to repaint a Wrangler, assuming you don’t want the already outstanding factory shades. A car wrap is essential, too, if you want to prevent all the paint scratches, dings, and dents. A little PVC plastic wrap goes a long way in preserving paint longevity.
  2. Go for Bigger Wheels & Tires
    • Many of our used vehicles already have 18” wheels or greater, but it’s still possible to go even larger. We offer a lot of ways to customize wheels and tires that let you ride way above the ground for highway cruising or exploring off-road trails. Of course, if you want to extend your truck or Jeep even higher, you can even install a lift kit, before tackling any road fearlessly.
  3. Grab Some Personalized Plates
    • License plates are a lot of fun because you can either personalize the number, or the plate theme itself. This is your chance to signal your devotion to a pet cause, celebrate your alma mater, or commemorate your career in the service.
  4. Install a New Sound System
    • New vehicles often come with Bose speakers and other terrific audio equipment. If you still want to take it further, consider upgrading with a new amplifier or subwoofer. Those are two of the most important components for anybody who wants to drive around to the bass and sharpest sound.
  5. Install LED Lights
    • LED lights aren’t just for your home. They do a magnificent job illuminating the interior or exterior of your vehicle. We recommend putting them in for floor lights, but folks also like to install them along wheels, license plates, and several other places.
  6. Slap on a New Steering Wheel Cover
    • Some drivers prefer smaller modifications, and that’s perfectly fine, too. How about a new steering wheel cover? It not only adds more charm and style but also keeps your hands warmer if you don’t have a heated steering wheel.
