Turn your old truck into one that stands out and showcases your personality. Simple upgrades can be completed that will give your vehicle a new appearance. You will be proud of driving your truck once you have finished making the changes.

Custom Rims

Add a pair of shiny, chrome rims to your truck. Lightweight rims will provide your truck with improved road performance and will make it easier to handle. Many sporty styles are available that will add flair to your vehicle. If you want to go all out, purchase a set that spin while you are moving down the road. This type of rim contains an extra disc that rotates separately from the main part of the rim.

For assistance with selecting a pair, visit a tire and rim specialist. A mechanic will be able to give you information about which type of rim will work best for the year and model that you own.

Accent Decals

A bland looking paint job will not stick out like a sore thumb after you add some accent decals to various parts of your truck. Dramatic flames, lightning bolts, or swirls are just some of the designs that are available. Select a color or pattern that complements the color of your truck. Many decals contain bold colors and sparkly details.

For a more customized appearance, select decals that contain your name or one of your favorite slogans. To apply decals, make sure that the surface of your truck is dry. Peel off the backing from each decal and press them against the parts of your truck that you want covered. Decals are moisture resistant and will stay attached to your truck's body for years.

Body Kit

A body kit contains several parts that will give your truck a sporty appearance and will make it more aerodynamic. Most parts are simple to install and only require basic tools like a screwdriver or wrench. Purchase a kit that contains a tail fin, hood scoop, side scoops and customized fenders. Once all of the parts have been applied, your truck will look flashy and original. Find the perfect kit for your truck by visiting an automotive supply store.

After making these simple upgrades, wash your truck and add a fresh coat of wax. Cruise around town in style with these new custom truck parts. Your vehicle will be one that you are proud of driving and will look better than it has in years.
