External character and the engine's soundtrack
Two directions that turn a series-built car into a project with personality. A body kit changes silhouette and proportions — the car becomes more aggressive, lower, wider. Exhaust tuning changes the sound and the engine's behaviour — from a restrained whisper to a sport roar under throttle. We work only with proven brands and certified systems.
Body kit, exhaust — or both
These mods often go in one project: an aggressive kit on the outside, a sport sound underneath — the look changes radically. Each can be done separately, depending on your goals.
Body kit installation
Front and rear bumpers, spoilers, splitters, diffusers, arch widenings, gills. Picked for your make and generation, fitted precisely to geometry and gaps, painted in body colour or contrast finish.
Exhaust tuning
Straight-through systems, sport resonators, valvetronic with sound control, decorative tips. We pick the balance of volume and tone for your car's character. We work with certified systems — no warranty issues, no service-station problems.
Reshape the silhouette — from sport accents to full W12-look
A well-chosen kit makes the car visually wider and lower, gives it the character of a serious sports car. We work with top brands that make kits for specific models — parts fit perfectly without «grinder fitting».
Front bumper / splitter
Replacement of the stock bumper or installation of an underside splitter. Changes the front-end geometry, adds aggression. The most visible change.
Rear bumper / diffuser
A sport diffuser with fins creates downforce and a low-pressure zone under the car. Visually elongates and tightens the rear.
Spoilers and wings
Trunk spoiler, wing on the lid or pillars. From a light lip to a serious aerodynamic element.
Arch widenings
Make the car visually wider, for wide wheels or just for the «squat» look. Often paired with a full kit.
Gills, fender accents
Decorative side elements — add detail, the brand-specific «sport language» (like BMW M-series or AMG).
Hoods / hood inserts
Hoods with intakes, carbon overlays — for projects with a more powerful engine and a real cooling need.
Sound is the soul of the car
Exhaust tuning is about emotion. Factory systems are usually muffled to silence because the goal is comfort, not character. A sport system gives the engine its voice back — from a polite sport «burble» to a real roar under acceleration.
Catback systems
Replaces the section from the catalytic converter to the muffler with a straight-through pipe. Keeps the «legal» part with the catalytic — emissions class unchanged.
Sport resonators
Replacement of the stock resonator with a sport one — changes the tone without much volume increase. A delicate upgrade for «evening» drives.
Electronic valvetronic
Controlled flaps in the exhaust: quieter for the city, louder for the highway or special mode. Controlled by remote or app. The most popular solution lately.
Sport headers
Replacement of the stock exhaust manifolds with sport ones — real 5–15 hp gain. Already serious engineering work.
Decorative tips
The cheapest option — stainless or «burnt-titanium-effect» tips on the muffler. Minimal sound change but visually upgrades the look.
Custom development
For demanding cars and serious projects — system designed from scratch. Tone choice, dyno measurement. Bentley, Aston Martin, special AMG projects.
Street
Quiet at idle. Light burble under throttle, but not loud enough to upset neighbours. Suits daily use.
Sport
Noticeably louder than stock, characteristic roar on acceleration. Heard from inside the cabin, impressive on the street. The most popular choice.
Track
Maximum loudness, aggressive, no compromises. For cars that hit the track and meet-ups.
Six steps from order to handover
One process for body kit and exhaust. Starts with a discussion about the car's character and ends with handover and a photo report. If something doesn't suit after install — we remove it without traces and pick an alternative.
- 01
Discussion and selection
Style you want, brands you're considering, budget. We match parts to make, generation, goals.
- 02
Parts ordering
Ordered by VIN. Delivery from 2 weeks (Russian brands) to 2 months (VIN-order from Germany). Meanwhile we prep the car.
- 03
Stock parts removal
Stock bumpers, spoilers, exhaust come off. Carefully — clips and fasteners go into the replacement list as needed.
- 04
Installation
Geometry fitting, gap alignment, paint to body colour where needed. For exhaust — precise fitting to factory mounts, welding where needed.
- 05
Test drive and tuning
Control drive: rattles, vibrations, exhaust sound, car behaviour. For valvetronic — mode tuning to the client.
- 06
Reassembly and photo report
Final assembly, wash, before/after photo report. The car returns with warranty papers on the work and parts.
