subject: How To Get A Free Body Kit For Your Car Or Truck [print this page] If you stopped to think about it right now, how many different types of cars and trucks do you think are on the road? Lets not forget, for each model car alone you could have a 2 door version, a 4 door version, a convertible,, an S, an SE, an SL, a CVT and now maybe even a hybrid. What we just described was just a 2009 Altima. That one car has all of these versions alone.
Then how about a truck? Think about it - we have a regular cab, extended cab, crew cab, short bed, long bed, heavy duty, super duty, flare side, 1500, 2500, 3500 - should I go on? That's just one brand of truck, one year. So how many versions are on the road? Well when you find out please let me know!
It seems almost endless, and that's what makes it so difficult for auto accessories manufacturers. It's almost impossible for them to locate each and every year, make, model and style of vehicle. That's when they reach out to their customers, their fans, friends, and just car nuts in general. They need more cars brought into their shop so they can be custom fitted for auto accessories.
Many of these body kit manufacturers are located in southern California. They are looking to expand their body kit product line, but they cant create new body kits and ground effects without some help. They are looking for vehicles to bring in to their facility for prototyping. If you happen to live in southern California then you are half way there.
If you do some legwork, you can get yourself a free body kit from one of the manufacturers. This is more common than you think.
If you let the manufacturers use your car, they will make molds from your parts to create new carbon fiber and duraflex body kits. In turn they will give you a free body kit just for letting them make the molds from your car or truck. The vehicle should not be your daily driver because you may have to leave it with them for 2-3 weeks, and you should be located in the same area where the main office is for that particular manufacturer.
For helping with the prototyping process, you will get a free body kit or ground effects kit in exchange for your time and use of your vehicle.
You really should contact the manufacturers to see if they still need your car. If you are chosen you will get a free fiberglass or carbon fiber body kit for that car!
