What does 'small front end set' mean?
2 Answers
'Front end set' refers to the replacement of components such as the front bumper, radiator frame, anti-collision beam, radiator, and condenser, without damage to the chassis or engine. More details are as follows: 1. Body Frame: The car body frame is the foundation for installing all components of a vehicle. This frame plays a crucial role in protecting passengers during accidents, so cars with damaged body frames should never be purchased. If only the body panels are damaged due to an accident, the car is not considered a salvage vehicle, as body panels do not affect safety and only serve aesthetic and aerodynamic purposes. 2. Airbags: Since airbags are single-use, replacing them can impact the car's resale value, as it may be classified as a salvage vehicle. Most modern cars now use LED headlights, which are both energy-efficient and durable.
In the car modification community, 'a small front lip kit' typically refers to a set of small aftermarket components for the front end of a vehicle, mainly including a small front lip, an upgraded grille, and sometimes small air deflectors. These parts are not just for a sportier look but also slightly improve aerodynamics, such as reducing wind resistance at high speeds. During installation, it's crucial to match the vehicle's dimensions and secure them with high-quality screws to prevent detachment on bumpy roads. I've seen many people install them DIY; it's recommended to start with ABS plastic material for affordability. For better durability, carbon fiber is a great option, though it comes at a higher price. After installation, always check if it interferes with the car's original radar or headlights—safety should always come first. Regular maintenance is key; avoid using high-pressure water jets when washing to prevent loosening or scratches.
