This Year's Must-Have Accessories for Your Modified Car


The most in-style accessories for a car are often the most unique ones, as car enthusiasts are continually looking for new ways to impress. Finding something that matches your personality will make you stand out from the crowd, so it's always a good idea to look for accessories that nobody seems to have. This year, certain car modifications and accessories are set to be popular, so get ahead of the trend and lead the pack rather than follow it.

The 1980s are back in fashion, big time, and the style with cars is no exception. There is not a more iconic 1980s car than the DeLorean from the classic 80s film 'Back to the Future'. Although it is not yet possible to modify your car to travel in time, the wing doors from the DeLorean are making a major comeback. Of course, you will need some specialist knowledge to install these and you'll need to make at least one trip to the spray painter; but the end result is well worth the time and effort. Amazingly, wing doors make your car look both retro and futuristic at the same time, and they're also a perfect way to show off your car's sleek interior.

If you're going to put in specialist doors, then you want your car to have an all-round experiential feel for drivers and passengers. This year, having a sound system is essential, as digital music technology and sound systems both improve the driver and passenger experience. You can Bluetooth your music to your speaker system and play the tunes you want without having to even plug in your music player. Not only is this more convenient, but it means you don't have to clutter the front seat with various cords and attachments for an outdated stereo system.

Depending on your particular style, you can customise your seats to match the 'theme' of your car. If you prefer a sportier look, then sports seats will give the racing car experience. If you are more of a comfort fan, then bucket seats give you the all-round support. However, getting new seats put in is something definitely best done by a professional, especially if you are having new seatbelts installed. For an additional touch of class, consider monograming your seat fabric with your initials or with your car's nickname.

The ultimate modification for a car is also the least negotiable. All cars in the UK have to have insurance, and this includes modified cars. Usually modified cars have to pay slightly extra for insurance, but the importance of protecting your beloved vehicle is well worth the upfront costs. With a range of new modified car insurance options, you will be able to find a good deal for your specific driving habits and lifestyle. Shopping around and using price comparison sites will allow you to find the best premium, and ensure you get the most opportune coverage for your modified car. With the extra cash you've saved by shopping around, you will be able to afford more modifications. However, remember to tell your insurance company of any changes you make to your vehicle, as certain changes could require you to alter your insurance plan.
