Making Your Used Motorsports Vehicle Look Like New

Buying a used motorsports vehicle is a great way to stretch your budget, and the preowned market is packed with recent models in great condition. Sure, your used vehicle may not have that “factory-fresh” feeling – but you can easily breathe new life into a used model with these tips from Langston Motorsports!

Clean and Wax the Vehicle

A quick and thorough cleaning and waxing are two of the simplest and most effective ways to spruce up an old vehicle! The owner’s manual should explain how to clean and wax your vehicle and specify which products to use. Even a gently used vehicle is probably going to have some superficial wear and tear, and a healthy coat of wax leaves behind a beautiful sheen that will hide any minor imperfections.

Give It a Fresh Paint Job

Some preowned motorsports vehicles will have been around the block a few times, and they might have scars to show for it. Maybe the paint is badly scratched in some areas, or maybe it has faded in the sun. In any case, if the exterior of your used vehicle really needs a makeover – or if you just want a more custom look – a fresh paint job will do the trick! 

Add Custom Graphics

If you really want to customize the aesthetic of your used motorsports vehicle, you can add a custom graphics kit. One popular option is a vinyl wrap that fits your vehicle like a second skin. These come in many patterns and colors, so you can get creative here.

Of course, you can also decorate your vehicle with decals of your favorite brands, sports teams, and local dealerships! This might not make your used vehicle look “brand new,” but it will make it look and feel more like your own.

Swap Out the Seat Covers

Seat covers inevitably get worn down over time, and a threadbare seat cover will make your vehicle appear much older than it is. On the flip side, a new seat cover is an easy and inexpensive upgrade that will instantly transform the look of your vehicle! Seat covers come in various styles, so this also gives you another chance to add a personal touch.

Replace Old Accessories

Used motorsports vehicles often come with aftermarket accessories already installed. This can be a great advantage to buying used, except when those accessories have started to show their age. Sometimes, replacing a weathered old windshield or upgrading an outdated instrument panel can make all the difference.
