When fitting a body kit to your coupe preparation is key to achieving a clean, professional finish. Start by thoroughly cleaning the car's surface where the kit will be attached using an automotive-grade cleaner and let the area dry completely. This ensures better adhesion of the mounting hardware and adhesives.


Always fit the body kit pieces dry before applying any adhesive or drilling holes. Lay each component in place and check for alignment with the factory lines of the car. Irregularities should be fine-tuned while the parts are still loose. Use masking tape to temporarily hold parts in place while you assess the fit from different angles, especially under different lighting conditions.


Always adhere to the provided installation guide. Certain kits include alignment holes, others demand custom drilling. Drill incrementally to maintain structural integrity and avoid material failure. Avoid cutting through brake lines, harnesses, or chassis reinforcements.


Choose industrial-strength exterior adhesives rated for long-term outdoor exposure. Distribute adhesive in a continuous bead without overloading. Press firmly with a padded clamp or your hand for 2–5 minutes. Allow the adhesive to cure fully before driving the car, usually 24 to 48 hours depending on the product.


If your body kit includes spoilers or diffusers, make sure they are securely bolted to reinforced points on the chassis. Never rely solely on adhesive for heavy or aerodynamic components. Double check all bolts and fasteners after installation and again after your first few drives.
