You can improve your SUV’s comfort and style in many ways. By upgrading the interior, the audio system, windows, wheels, and exterior protection, you can personalize your SUV. Here are five trending customizations for your SUV.
Adding leather upholstery and details
Perhaps you didn’t opt for leather when you bought your SUV, thinking it was going to be your workhorse. Gardening, hauling loads to the recycling center, or navigating muddy roads to get to your vacation home or your favorite fishing spot can be hard on any vehicle.
If you treat your SUV’s interior with care, one of these top five ways to customize your SUV is upgrading to leather seats with contrast stitching. Leather makes a car cabin more luxurious, and it’s quite easy to clean. Many auto shops can install leather seat covers or reupholster the existing seats with real automotive-grade leather. Also, colorful accents like piping and embroidered logos on the headrests can spice up a drab factory interior.
Upgrading your sound system
A premium sound system makes road trips and commutes enjoyable. Replacing factory speakers with high-quality models, adding an amplifier and subwoofer, and installing a touchscreen stereo are popular upgrades. You could also install custom enclosures and fiberglass speaker pods to provide loud, clear audio without taking up cargo space.
Tinting the windows
Window tinting provides many benefits, including enhanced privacy, UV protection for interior surfaces, and heat deflection. Tinted windows also lend an aura of mystery and a suggestion of luxury to the unseen interior. A reputable body shop can help you select a legal and aesthetically pleasing window tint film. They’ll also install it for you.
Consider custom wheels
Installing aftermarket wheels is a simple way to transform the look of an SUV. Custom rims come in endless finishes, sizes, and designs, from sporty black alloys to flashy chrome dubs. New wheels paired with low-profile tires can enhance street presence. If you take your SUV off-roading, you can install rugged all-terrain wheels and heavy-tread tires for enhanced handling.
Get a custom exterior coating
A full exterior coating of truck bed liner material gives an eye-catching, cutting-edge matte appearance to your SUV’s exterior. These coatings are durable and scratch-resistant, preserving your SUV’s exterior and making cleaning it much easier.
These are just a few popular ways to customize an SUV with OEM or aftermarket parts and accessories. With so many options, you can create an SUV that is perfectly suited to your lifestyle.
I am a 50-something Torontonian who loves everything about my city. It’s been my home, my playground, for my entire life. I went to school here. I met my wife here. I own real estate here. I love writing about the transformation of my city on the world stage, which hasn’t been anything short of dramatic. That continues on, as I write this. I write on the real estate scene. I write on travel and fashion. I like following the world of luxury watches.
But I love writing about cars – check that, luxury cars, a level of superior, engineering sophistication, high performance and style, that transports you not just from one destination to another but also out of whatever you are going through on a particular day, whatever mood you are in, all to another head space. It’s complete and total exhilaration, head to toe.
