Car Modification - Where the Market's Going?

2011 will be an interesting year for the Chinese car market, Tier 1 cities will be cracking down on the sales of new cars to try and reduce the gridlock on roads, meaning that in Beijing only 1/3 the number of cars will be allowed to be registered in the city compared to the year before.

Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou are also struggling with the burgeoning mass of vehicles on their streets and as such may also implement strict controls on new model sales or alternatively impose congestion charging and "alternate day" policies (where you can only drive you car on Monday, Wednesday and Friday or on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday) and these controls will impact on car sales too.

Of course it's not all doom and gloom for the country's dealers there will be plenty of capacity increase in the Tier 2, 3 & 4 cities which are the focus of the next decade's economic investment program. But in the Tier 1 cities there will be a definite move away from new vehicles, creating large opportunities in the car modification and customisation market to enable owners to maintain the appeal in older models. Companies like AC Schnitzer and Tech Art are already on the scene and have had a reasonable amount of success already.

Hamann, the German specialists in a wide range of top quality cars for both body kits and tuning are also planning a launch in the country very soon, and rumours suggest that they will launch almost simultaneously in Shanghai and Beijing later this year with a rapid roll out plan to build 15 dealerships in the next following 2 years.

The drive for individualism in a country where it is difficult to distinguish yourself (housing is fairly uniform, as are offices and manufacturing facilities) means there are great opportunities to develop a strong business modifying motors and enabling bespoke "look and feel" for even very high-end cars.

The country is now the world's largest consumer of luxury cars, at the recent Guangzhou car show Bentley sold 8 cars in 3 days! So while you couldn't call these vehicles "commonplace" they are found in greater abundance than anywhere else. There has already been strong interest in the Hamann product range for enabling a more unique look, to allow businessmen to distinguish themselves from their peers. Rumours are that they have already pre-sold their first Bentley, despite being a few months away from launch, and having not yet opened a sales centre in the country.

It will be interesting to see how the market in China develops, and most of all who will make use of the opportunity to become the first Chinese manufacturer of body kits for the high end market. With the government in Dalian offering high levels of subsidy for auto manufacturing projects, it has to be just a matter of time.

Muscle Cars - How to Rebuild and Modify Your Muscle Car

After the World War II, muscle cars became an instant hit, as motorists and car buyers aimed to acquire vehicles that would showcase and show great power and speed. The term was basically a name description of what the car was to the industry.

Muscle cars were considered the instruments to bring back the glory and profitability of the global car industry. Muscle autos were hugely popular in the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.

With the emergence of many other car brands and more superior car models, muscle cars are now nowhere in the map of global cars. However, there are still some of those vehicles that are in circulation within the market.

Those muscle autos are now considered novelty and collectors' items. If you happen to own one, it surely would be your interest to improve and revitalize the look and performance of your old car. Thus, you would certainly find ways on how you can rebuild and modify your muscle auto.

Here are some suggested procedures on how you can rebuild and revitalize the look and feel of your muscle autos. Take note that some auto detailing techniques may already be familiar to you, especially if you are into regular auto detailing.

1. Plan the restoration process ahead of time. Muscle cars are important and are sensitive cars. Any error or mistake on the rebuilding and auto detailing procedure could greatly harm and alter the overall appearance of the exterior of the car.

Thus, it would be advisable if you would do a research and ask experts on what to do right about your muscle auto. Make a simple list of things to do and do a checklist to serve as a guide as you do the rebuilding and modifying process.

2. Spend time and more effort rebuilding the body of the muscle cars. Pay particular attention to details. The overall body of the car should be given more care and proper treatment. Do you need to modify and do little changes at the engine and the overall system?

If you are not too familiar with it, just leave it to the experts. Just tell them what you want, what you aim and what you intend to do and let them do the rest.

3. Settle to do a major auto detailing. When the insides of the muscle autos are modified and improved, take time to do a major auto detailing process.

When you auto detail muscle cars, you aim to revamp and overhaul the total exterior and physical package of the vehicles. Repaint. Spend to repair damaged parts. Check the wheels. In no time, the muscle autos would look as awesome as new again.

4. To wrap things up, check the overall electrical system of the muscle autos. Pay attention to the electrical wirings responsible for the proper functioning of lights and horns. Make sure the battery is functioning well.

5. There is no need to change the overall physical appearance or the assembly of the body packaging, not unless you want to remodel your muscle autos. If you do so, your muscle cars would cease to be muscle cars and should be called through other names.

As your muscle cars take a new rejuvenation and look, always remember that muscle cars would not ever function like the modern powerful cars. During their time, muscle autos were the most powerful vehicles on the road.

How to Modify Your Car Cheaply to Run On Water

Problems Today:

Incredibly high petrol prices, petrol battles, pollution and global climate change. You know what I'm referring to.

Bad News?:

A possible solution could be watered powered vehicles. There are apparently about 10 strategies that will allow people to do this, but it is too costly and relatively impossible to do at the present time. Nobody know what could happen to them, and it is a big change that can't take place.

Finally some good news:

Thanks to a lot of backyard engineers, you can now power your car partially on water, that is a water-gas hybrid. This would increase your gas efficiently by up to 59% and I've even seen 70% on a Cadillac 99. Using this technology you could drastically help prevent global warming. You can improve efficient burning of fuel this means less wear and tear, engine clatter, high temperature in the engine, carbon deposits.

This is obviously an extremely powerful piece of technology. Supposable it has been around for over 90 years but no one dared to go public do to the fact that they ware afraid of the multi billion dollar gas industries. Well do to the ever raising gas prices that reached an all time high these days, one of these backyard engineers got fed up and decided to go public.

So how does this really work? It's pretty simple, you ue electricity from your car's battery to separate water into a gas known as HHO, this burns effectively and supplies significant energy. HHO has the atomic power of hydrogen but maintains the stability of water. This makes it a very safe and very effective process.

We have already seen how a system like this can benefit you, but how can you get your hands on one? You could go to your local auto shop and ask them to make you one, but you would probably spend 500$ for the HHO generator and another 500$ for installment. The best solution would be to get yourself a do it yourself guide. It is extremely easy to follow, as they usually come with 90 pages of detailed instructions and illustration, as opposed to the old days when all the instructions ware on a piece of paper.

A guide like this costs less then 50$ and the materials needed for conversion are also around 50$. This means you can be up and running for 100$, it's obviously the way to go.

In conclusion you can modify you car cheaply to run on water, with the use of these simple do it yourself guides that are designed for complete car novices. Running your car on water makes it an environmentally safe hybrid, and what comes with an environmentally safe hybrid, IRS refunds owed to you by the law, for using green technology in your vehicle...just great.

Tips and Hints For Car Re-Spray For Effective Car Modification

The most fantastic way of car modification and to change the appearance of your car is to re-spray it. One way to avoid the problem of scratches scrapes or paint degradation is to apply bare metal spray.

Spray cans are only appropriate when you are repainting at small scale. Repaint at big level will require a professional finish and therefore acceptable arsenal of car repaint equipment which includes filtered booth to avoid emission carcinogens and other environment damaging gases into the atmosphere and a high quality spray gun with different sizes of nozzle depending on the paint and finish required.

Before starting the car repaint jobs please make sure that the area is completely dust free. Performing car repaint is encouraged in a warm environment as it really makes your job easier and really enhances the finish of your paint. If you happen to be in a cold territory then make sure you have an access to a low bake oven.
Make sure you apply the right paint for the right job as varieties of different paints are available in the market all made for different purposes. For instance if you want to apply a flip paint or even want to give a special effect to your car by repainting it then both will require different types of paints. There are variety of effects to choose from which includes metallic, pearlescent, translucent and many more. Obviously the technique to apply these will differ accordingly. However I will presume a regular base paint in this article in order to just make myself clear.

Before you start to repaint your car make sure that you have complied with all the safety measures. The most important safety step before repainting your car is to cover your mouth with good filtration. The paint fumes are believed to be medically injurious to inhale so a normal decorator mask is not going to provide appropriate safety. Furthermore ensure that the area in which you are performing the repaint is well ventilated and there's a good passage of fresh air.

As explained above spray paint cans are good only for small scale repaint. For large scale repaint you need to acquire a spray gun and good quality paint. Moreover spray paint cans are more expensive on aggregate basis so if you are looking for a cool and stunning car modification through repaint you have to stop relying on spray paint cans. As large scale repaint means that you will be doing 5-6 thin mist coats so it would require at least 18-20 spray paint cans. So you can estimate the overall cost when you are trying to be a miser and avoid spending on spray paint gun and good quality paint.

Now coming to the procedure. For your convenience I have tried to divide the whole procedure into sequential steps so you would feel easier to remember and act as explained in this article.

Step 1: Wash thoroughly, the area where the paint has to be applied. Make sure that the sanding and filling has been done before you reach this stage. Even the slightest uneven body surface will stand out so keep on watching the car's body from different angles and ensure that not even a slightest bump remains there. An effective technique to figure out any bump on the car is to wet the surface and use a lamp to inspect for any flaw. All the bumps can be seen if any.
Just in case you did not replace the old paint using paint remover and protected the metal with rust inhibitor, make sure that all the dust, grit and road film are removed via a good quality car cleaning fluid free of wax additives.

Step 2: Do some clinical cleansing.  Use a paper towel or a screen wipe which is more preferred and any solvent cleaner such as IPA or similar spirit used for cleansing purposes wipe over the surface to a smear free finish.

Step 3: Masking. Be conscious of all the exposed areas which are going to get painted. If you are not able to apply masking even a few mm then you will have to endure some really annoying over-spray lines. The masking proves itself even more significant when you are to change the color of the car. Check for all the seams by opening the car's doors, bonnets e.t.c. and of course don't forget to remove the glass. The more plastic you will remove from the car the easier you are making your job.

Step 4: Spraying. Make sure that the spray paint gun you are using ejects a good flow of paint and for this purpose first, test the pressure and flow by applying the paint on the small piece of a card and ensure that blobs and splatters are minimized. A really valuable tip seems to be appropriate here. When spraying paint do not aim to completely cover the metal but just smear the spray gun over the area with an even speed. Do not try to complete the job in just few thick coats. Remember that numbers of thin coats are better than few thick coats. Keep on moving the spray gun over the area with a regular pace. If you moved from right to left at first coat then move up to down in the second one as this will provide more detail. If only a portion of a car is to be painted i.e. a panel, then try to blend the paint with the surrounding panels as the paint is going to fade-off eventually. It is preferred to give a break of one hour between the coats. In majority cases the final touch has to be given through a lacquer coat. The final lacquer coat can be applied in series of thin coats.

Step 5: After applying the lacquer, let it to go off for 2-3 days before waxing. Bring an end to the repaint job by applying fine grit of wet and dry paper then polish off with a cutting paste and then apply a good quality wax. Wax is necessary as it assists and protects the car when refitting the parts and accessories you previously plucked from it.

However, ignore step 5 if you want a Matt (non-reflective finish).

Car Modification - Modifying Your Car - A Global Trend

Modifying your car has been a popular pastime for many years. By modifying your car you are able to put your own unique personal touches on the vehicle to make it stand out from the rest. There are many cosmetic modifications that don't make the car run any different, but then that's not the point 90 percent of the time! More often car modification is done just to make your car look better or give it a more aggressive race like appearance. These types of modification are simple and will make your car stand out from the rest with very little work. As for the cost of car modifications, that is an altogether different story. Parts are freely available off the shelf from companies such as Spareco, Koni and Spax. For example you can buy Spax suspension, Janspeed exhausts, Momo rims and steering wheels, body kits, light alloy pedals, leather or led lit gear knobs, Corbeau race seats and even race harnesses.

Getting a new set of wheels for your vehicle is a popular choice. There are many alloy wheel styles to choose from. Another popular modification is having your windows tinted. Tinted windows can help keep the glare from the sun out and also makes it harder for others to see into the car. I.C.E or In Car Entertainment is vital to any car modification project. Enhancing your cars audio is extremely popular and the range of products and options available provide DIY car modifiers with a world of choices. Products to choose from include the popular iPod Car Adapter kits, USB, CD & MP3 Stereos and , multi CD changers, front and rear parking sensors (some have video), plus the leads, tv screens and tools required to fit everything. Leading brands include: JVC, Dension, Panasonic, Connects2, Dashmount, Parrot, Alpine, Autoleads, Kenwood, Pioneer & Sony.

Today car navigation systems such as Motevo, TomTom, Garmin and Pioneer navigation systems are key ingredients when modifying a car. Even satellite or GPS Navigation systems come in hundreds of shapes and sizes. The main types of in-car navigation systems are in-dash mounted navigation systems, portable GPS systems, hand held systems, motorcycle and marine systems and finally the remote navigation systems where the GPS system is plugged in to your car radio for instance. When buying a new GPS system its often better to opt for higher resolution screens as they make the map information easier to see. Large memory and a decent control chip make for smooth and efficient operating, the last thing you need is slow loading and in accurate positioning. Most GPS systems have large touch screens, working with a stylus can be tricky so it does help and lastly pay particular attention to how visible and mobile you wish your model to be.

If it's a permanent fixture in your car then bigger models are great, but if you need to take it in doors after use, a smaller model may be the answer. Car security is a factor not only when modifying your vehicle but also when insuring a car with lots of expensive audio equipment in it. Phone you current car insurance company and find out what you can do before your insurance starts costing you more. They will no doubt also require an upgrade to your car security system and there are simply so many companies out there the likes of Viper, Tracker and Clifford. They all sell various systems such as standard car alarms, remote car start systems and GPS tracking systems. GPS stands for Global Positioning Systems. Professional fitment is recommended and car security shoppers should always insist on a certificate of fitment from the dealer fitting the car security system.

If you want to give your car a sporty look without spending a fortune you can have racing mesh fitted for the front bumper of your car. This looks good and can also improve the airflow around the engine compartment. "Eyebrow extensions" is another way to customise your car. These extensions are usually plastic and are fitted to your car's head lamps. You can get these in a variety of colours and are relatively inexpensive. Car engine mapping is also relatively cheap to have done and performance gains can be substantial. It is recommended that you have engine mapping performed by competent, well known companies as they are best able to advise you of other crucial safety features you should improve when doing so. Up-rated brakes being one of them and more expensive tyres make for better high speed performance and traction to handle the additional engine power. Consider upgrading the oil you use in your engine when you have this done and use an high quality performance air filter, fuel filter and also replace all perished water and oil hoses frequently, if you haven't already done so. Engine mapping or chipping is basically re-programming your cars CPU and it is given new instructions on how to fuel your engine. The more power you ask for the more gas / petrol your mapping will request along with other parameters such as increasing the airflow to the engine by tricking the motor into thinking the air is colder, this produces more power. All this power comes at a cost though. Most cars that have upgraded their engine management systems do so for more power, not efficiency and in doing so use more fuel and rev higher too. Cam belts should be replaced more frequently and if you plan any engine modifications have a word with the manufacturers about what you plan to do.

There are many things that can be done to modify a car. An entire industry has been created by the need for body styling, engine tuning, lowered suspension and big bore exhausts. Any part of a car can be modified and making modifications is a statement of individuality and personal style. The most popular cars for modifying are usually small, low insurance group hatches. Always update your car insurance company with the latest modifications to ensure your cover is not withdrawn due to something you thought may be ok which they do not. Other insurances like car breakdown cover and gap insurance cover should not be affected by modifying your car, unlike your car warranty policy which will almost certainly be affected. Give your car warranty company a call and make sure your cover will still be provided before you make any changes.

Famous Cars

Some modified cars have become popular because of being in a film or on a TV show. Some are noted for their superior performance and some are known for the celebrity driving them. Below are a few of the cars that are considered icons today.

1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Fastback was the star of the 2000 film "Gone in 60 Seconds." In this film the car does some unbelievable stunts, including jumping over 15 feet of cars.

1963 Volkswagen Beetle became famous in the "Herbie" series films. Herbie was a little Beetle with a Porsche 356 engine who gave the big boys a run for their money.

1969 Dodge Charger became a muscle car icon through the television series, "The Dukes of Hazzard." It had a confederate flag painted on the roof and the doors were welded shut. The modified Charger R/T, called the General Lee seemed to be always airborn.

1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am was made popular by the television series, "Knight Rider." The modified Trans Am known as KITT was a hyper intelligent crime fighting automobile. This car could do everything including, see, hear and smell.

1974 Ford Gran Torino was made famous in the television series, "Starsky and Hutch." It was a powerful muscle car with a 351 Cleveland and 4 barrel Holley carburetor. It was driven hard by two California detectives in the series.

There is a downside to modifying your car. If you don't have a specialist or someone experienced in modifying your particular make and model of car, you may be wasting your money. You need to select the right combination of modification to gain the most out of your car. If you select the wrong combination you will have spent a lot of money for nothing. Another thing you should remember is modifications to your car may affect the warranty. It will also make your insurance premiums higher. You also have to be aware that some engine modifications can violate regulations and emission laws. You have to make sure that any modifications to your car are safe and won't disrupt the reliability and stability of the vehicle. Sometimes modified engines are often touchy and require premium fuel.

It is easy to get caught up in the whole modification process and end up modifying the car too much. The rule of thumb should be; less is more. Otherwise you will spend huge amounts of money, which could add up to more than the car is worth. Also, if it is over modified it can be hard to sell and most dealers won't offer a deal to do a trade in for the car. Just keep these factors in mind when you are going to modify your car to express your style and personality.

Enjoy your new car!

Car's Body Kit Modification

Car body kits for primary purposes are used as cosmetic tools for your car, yet they have a potential of implicating a radical change in the appearance of the car. However applying just a body kit and assuming that car modification job has been performed very well is a misconception many armature car modifiers bear. One should always choose a body kit best aligning with the lines of your car.One should always choose a body kit best aligning with the lines of their cars. Kits requiring spray and paint should be properly sprayed or one should be prepared to spend extra bucks once the kit starts to peel off.

One problem faced during a car modification or installing a new body kit is that the colors seldom match with whole car and it is very difficult to find or maintain the right color combination for the car. However good opportunity arises when fitting a new kit, to respray the whole car so to have a suitable color combination.

Some tips regarding front bumper and grill seems to be appropriate here. New bumpers especially the front one lack the physical strength as compared to the standard one so provide less protection against any crash. Similarly new grills, one finds it usually to be very difficult to install when the remaining body kits has been already applied. So when installing grills and vents a person should be very conscious of the order with which he is going to install the body kit or a lot of time will be wasted in fitting and unfitting the kit.

Off the shelf body kits may look attractive in their packing but they rarely compliment the car and most of the time they fail to enhance the look of the car. So the best way is to get your car a new custom body kit from any specialist body shop. But remember when you have opted for yourself to become a car modifier then don't be a miser in spending some extra money on good quality body kits. This hobby sure requires some high investments. Going for cheap, low quality kits would simply mean that you are wasting your money and time. Don't ever be reluctant in spending some money on good ones as well fitted body kits can prove to be real investments which is definitely going to pay off in future in the form of sponsorship contracts and air time at local TV programs.

A good way to ensure that all the parts are fitted in their required order is to read the instruction manual carefully on the packing of the body kits and make sure all the parts provided in the list are present. Just lay down all the parts around the car and hold them against body work in order to make sure for the best fit.

When cutting holes for the exhaust, ensure that you always strive for 1-2cm wider than what actually is required so that you don't have to face any irritation just in case you commit a mistake in measuring the required diameter of the hole. However to measure the hole's diameter, use cardboard template for best results.

Many people love to spray their kits before fitting it to the car. However much better results have been witnessed when the kit is sprayed on the vehicle. Carbon fiber panels are much lighter than an ordinary one and they are best in reducing the overall car weight as well as maintaining the rigidity. Are you fed up of small scratches occurred mostly during the parking? Well again installation of good quality kits seems to be the only remedy for this problem besides being more conscious on the road.

Low skirts beside enhancing the look of your ride also increases the cornering speed but a bad job in fitting them can cause the problems of grounding at bumps as well as drastic effects on the cooling ability of the engine. At the end make sure to check the temperature Gauge to ensure that the car is not heating up quickly because of installation of new body kit. Be careful to fit the kit on stiffer suspension. This will sure have some implications on the usability of the car but it will avoid the problems of grounding of your car because of the new weights of body kits applied to your ride.

Car Modification - Where the Market's Going?

2011 will be an interesting year for the Chinese car market, Tier 1 cities will be cracking down on the sales of new cars to try and reduce the gridlock on roads, meaning that in Beijing only 1/3 the number of cars will be allowed to be registered in the city compared to the year before.
Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou are also struggling with the burgeoning mass of vehicles on their streets and as such may also implement strict controls on new model sales or alternatively impose congestion charging and "alternate day" policies (where you can only drive you car on Monday, Wednesday and Friday or on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday) and these controls will impact on car sales too.
Of course it's not all doom and gloom for the country's dealers there will be plenty of capacity increase in the Tier 2, 3 & 4 cities which are the focus of the next decade's economic investment program.
But in the Tier 1 cities there will be a definite move away from new vehicles, creating large opportunities in the car modification and customisation market to enable owners to maintain the appeal in older models. Companies like AC Schnitzer and Tech Art are already on the scene and have had a reasonable amount of success already.

Hamann, the German specialists in a wide range of top quality cars for both body kits and tuning are also planning a launch in the country very soon, and rumours suggest that they will launch almost simultaneously in Shanghai and Beijing later this year with a rapid roll out plan to build 15 dealerships in the next following 2 years.
The drive for individualism in a country where it is difficult to distinguish yourself (housing is fairly uniform, as are offices and manufacturing facilities) means there are great opportunities to develop a strong business modifying motors and enabling bespoke "look and feel" for even very high-end cars.
The country is now the world's largest consumer of luxury cars, at the recent Guangzhou car show Bentley sold 8 cars in 3 days! So while you couldn't call these vehicles "commonplace" they are found in greater abundance than anywhere else. There has already been strong interest in the Hamann product range for enabling a more unique look, to allow businessmen to distinguish themselves from their peers. Rumours are that they have already pre-sold their first Bentley, despite being a few months away from launch, and having not yet opened a sales centre in the country.
It will be interesting to see how the market in China develops, and most of all who will make use of the opportunity to become the first Chinese manufacturer of body kits for the high end market. With the government in Dalian offering high levels of subsidy for auto manufacturing projects, it has to be just a matter of time.

Ferrari 612 Scaglietti

The 612 Scaglietti is the result of an avant-garde design that continues the great Ferrari 2+2 tradition in fabulous style. Penned by Pininfarina, the 612 Scaglietti is named in honour of Sergio Scaglietti, the legendary Modenese stylist and coachbuilder responsible for bodying some of the most beautiful Ferraris of the 1950s and 60s.

The 612 Scaglietti epitomises Ferrari's talent for innovation and design. This thrillingly nimble, beautifully balanced sporty front-engined rear-wheel drive berlinetta offers a cabin capable of accommodating four occupants in unprecedented comfort, thanks to a host of accessories and a fantastic specification.

The 612 Scaglietti isn't just another 2+2 but a sumptuous, roomy two-door four-seater that's a pleasure to be aboard regardless of driving conditions.
