  • JMS announces new exclusive body kit for VW Golf 3

    2019 JMS Volkswagen Golf 3There’s an exclusive body kit for Golf 3 by JMS team. Remaining one of the most popular machines for upgrade and tuning, the 3rd series of the notorious VW lineup still has a lot to demonstrate.

    For this particular project, JMS designers includes a front bumper that is both massive and cleaner in design and features three large air vents, a rocker panel set and a rear bumper. This rear bumper doesn’t have any pre-fabricated cutouts for the exhaust pipes and it can be individually adapted for every exhaust system. Additional goodies include a lightweight hood and an eye-catching orange body finish.

    Furthermore, this exclusive upgrade comes with Hella clear glass headlights and lowered body height due to the addition of KW Variant 1 coilover suspension system. Unfortunately, the mounted three-part 8×17-inch Zender rims are no longer unavailable.

    However, as an optional equipment, JMS studio offers sporty exhaust systems and manifolds.

    The high-quality JMS products can be purchased at car dealerships, well-stocked specialist retailers and of course, directly from JMS Fahrzeugteile.

However, the new lineup, or more popular as the fifth generation brings some goodies and changes that seem to be well-accepted by brand’s die-hard fans.

    However, there were few that wanted even more. For example, engineers at PRIORDESIGN. The guys have decided to create an exclusive exterior body kit that gives new Supra some more expressive stance and a neat boost of aerodynamic features.

    The concept design provides a good impression of a wide body proportions. There’s a new skirt and a large air itaker for the front-end. Another highlight is the front spoiler lip with side flaps and a new bumper that significantly contributes to the widening of the body at the front. Furthermore, there’s a central air outlet and beefy new expression by the four-piece fender add-ons on the rear axle and rocker panel blade attachments that take up the whole new width. And let’s not forget about the sexy and super-large, fixed spoiler on the trailing edge, which provides the perfect finish to the body language.

    Also available is another package that comes without widening the fenders. It is a high-quality kit that offers glass fiber Duraflex mixture of carbon, which is perfect for the in-house autoclave.

  • Mazda team to unveil MX-5 Miata 30th Anniversary Edition

    2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata 30th Anniversary Back in 1989 at the Chicago Auto Show Mazda revealed MX-5 Miata for the first time. Now, after 30 years, the team is proud to unveil one more unit at the same show. This time the audience will be pleased to witness the global debut of 2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata 30th Anniversary.

    Embracing the philosophy of its predecessors, the special edition incorporates three decades of history. First of all, the Anniversary edition pays homage to the early lightweight European sportscars and of course, to the designers who have put their hearts and souls in the spirit of the original MX-5 Miata.

    2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata 30th Anniversary will be available for both soft top and RF models and will be based on the already successful 2019 MX-5 Grand Touring. This means that the newcomer will include a refined drivetrain system that delivers a total of 181hp and 151 pound-feet of torque. However, the first noticeable feature is the new exterior finish – Racing Orange. Miata fans out there will remember that the original 1989 Miata was bearing this very same color scheme and it is also a tribute to these glorious good ol’ days.

    2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata 30th Anniversary

    This color scheme continues to the interior with orange louvers and orange piping on the heated RECARO sports seats. In fact, these seats are exclusively wrapped in Alcantara, which can also be found in the door inserts and lower instrument panel. As one might well imagine, these are only part of the exclusive equipment. What we know so far, is that additional gadgets include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with SiriusXM and new SiriusXM three-year Traffic Plus and Travel Link subscription.

    Also, in order to contrast the notable color scheme, engineers have included new RAYS ZE40 17-inch Dark Gunmetal forged alloys that perfectly match to vehicle’s legacy. Based on the Global MX-5 Cup Car, these do fit car’s overall sporty and aggressive stance. A special “30th Anniversary” serialized badging on the driver’s side rear quarter panel and additional unique components will finish this sexy design concept, but as it seems, we are yet to see the final result.

  • Arclight Fab: Getting the Genuine Parts for Your Vehicle was Never Easy Before

    2019-Classic-Vehicle-910When it comes to cars, everybody has a favorite, and that is why instead of buying a brand new car, some people would somewhat revive a vintage car that can hardly work. While this is deeply connected to one’s dreams, it is essential to know that restoring a wrecked vehicle is quite expensive thanks to the fact that you will have to invest heavily in buying the required parts.

    The Ford F-series is one of the oldest car models that are hardly available in stores today. Replaced by the new designs, wanting to revive the f100 may seem impossible but the good news is that f100 parts are still available today. The same applies to all the vintage car models that can no longer be found in stores. The only thing that you should do is search in the right places. While doing so, you might want to consider the following;

    Who is selling you the parts?

    This is the first thing most people will want to know to avoid the risk of spending money on the wrong item. It is, therefore, a must that you dig up on who claims to be selling the precious car parts. An excellent example of a genuine dealer is the Arclight Fab which has a good reputation of providing legitimate car parts including original f100 parts if you need. You should know that in as much as there are genuine car parts sellers out there, some are not genuine at all hence you might want to be on the lookout.

    How much does it cost?

    While vintage car parts are hard to come by, you should know that their prices vary depending on the seller and its state. To avoid ending up buying a part that will wear out very soon, you should think about having a fair budget. When you buy a costly car part for cheap especially if it is a second-hand item, then there are very high chances that they won’t serve you for long. Anyone who has brought back a vintage car to life can testify that the spare parts cost a lot and why you would rather spend more money on them.

    Location

    You’ll probably not want to order for a car part that you haven’t seen or tested. That’s why you would, instead, look for a dealer near you. If you are to order parts from a seller far away, then you must have a good reason like you were unable to find the part locally. You will, however, want to make sure that you’re dealing with a genuine dealer who will not send you the wrong item. You’ll also want to find out about their return policy and be ready to take care of the shipping cost if they don’t provide.

    Conclusion

    Getting genuine car parts for your car should not be any trouble thanks to the many legitimate dealers around. The only tricky part is finding them but thanks to the internet, this should cost you fewer hustles but will still require your careful selection criteria.
