Where Can I Modify My Car
2 Answers
Car modifications can include the exterior wrap, body color, tires, and interior. Car Exterior Wrap: The car exterior wrap refers to the car film. Nowadays, many 4S shops offer free car films, but not all films are suitable. For example, the light transmittance of the car film must not be less than 70%. Body Color: The color of a car must be registered with the vehicle management office when it leaves the factory. If you don't like the color of your car, you can go to the vehicle management office to register and change it. However, the body color cannot be changed to resemble that of police cars, government vehicles, or special vehicles. Car Tires: Car tires are consumables and can be replaced when necessary. Therefore, modifying car tires is also acceptable. When replacing tires, you only need to consider the size and quality, and there is no need to report to the vehicle management office. Car Interior: The car interior can be modified freely without restrictions. However, care should be taken not to obstruct the driver's view.
I've been thinking about car modification for years. Auto parts markets are the most common destinations, like Beijing Wufang Tianya and Guangzhou Chentian, where all kinds of modification parts are available, and shops are clustered with transparent prices. However, be cautious with those small roadside stalls—they might be cheap, but the craftsmanship varies. Professional modification shops are more expensive, but they have specialized equipment and certified technicians, especially for critical parts like powertrain and chassis modifications. Online platforms are also quite mature now, with services available on Tmall Car Maintenance and Tuhu, where you can compare prices online. My advice is to first clarify your modification goals—whether it's exterior body kits or performance upgrades—and then choose the right place based on your budget. Remember, all modifications must be registered, and avoid illegal extreme modifications.
