1 Answers
2021 new regulations on car modifications are as follows: 1. Wheel rim styles can be changed: The new regulations have relaxed the rules on wheel rim modifications. As long as the size and specifications of the wheel rims match those on the registration certificate, the style can be changed. It is even permissible for all four wheel rims to have different styles. 2. Roof racks and side step boards can be installed: This new regulation mainly applies to SUV and MPV models. The height of the installed roof rack must be within 300 millimeters, and the width of the side step board must not exceed 5 centimeters beyond the side of the vehicle body. 3. Vehicle body color can be changed: The vehicle body color can be altered through painting or wrapping, but the changes must be registered with the vehicle management office within ten days. It is important to note that colors similar to those used on police cars, fire trucks, and other official vehicles are not allowed. 4. Grilles and front/rear bumpers can also be modified: The styles of grilles and front/rear bumpers can be changed. However, the installation of new grilles and bumpers must not alter the original length and width of the vehicle. The vehicle emblem cannot be changed, and the bumpers must not have any obvious protrusions, such as the so-called 'tow hooks' which are not allowed. 5. Roof racks no higher than 30cm can be installed: The new regulations state that passenger cars can install roof racks no higher than 30cm, provided that safety and stability are ensured.
