About BodyKit Shop

We started with our own cars and the frustration of a body kit that would not sit flush against the bumper. Today we run a shop where fitment is documented, not promised.

How it started

In 2019 we ordered a front splitter for a private car. The listing said "fits the 3 Series". Once unpacked it turned out the part had been designed for a different bumper variant — the gap was a dozen millimetres, but that was enough to keep the splitter from sitting flush along its whole length.

The workshop quoted more for the fitting work than the part itself had cost. That is when we understood the problem with this industry: it sells a shape, not a fitment. Descriptions stay vague because a vague description matches more searches.

We built BodyKit Shop the other way round. Every product lists specific models and model-year ranges. If we have not tested a part on a given car, that car is not on the list — even when it theoretically could fit.

What we stand by

  • Fitment over "universal"

    Every product lists models and years. If something is missing from the list, we say so instead of writing "fits most cars".

  • Honest fitting descriptions

    We state whether drilling is needed, how long the job takes and what is in the box. Drilling into a bumper beam is not the same as 3M tape — and the customer should know that before buying.

  • Material matched to purpose

    ABS for daily driving, FRP for track use, carbon when weight and looks matter. We do not sell carbon where it brings no benefit.
