Hyundai Coupé with body kit.

A bodykit or body kit is a collection of exterior modifications to a car, typically comprising front and rear bumpers (fenders), side skirts, and spoilers. There are many companies that sell these replacements as alternatives to the traditional look of the vehicle from the factory. Body kits will be designed to complement each other, and work together as a complete design. Despite this, the 'mix and match' approach is often seen on cars, where the front of one body kit will be matched with the rear of another.

Automotive body kits are usually constructed of either fiberglass or polyurethane. Most car modification enthusiasts prefer polyurethane^{[citation needed]} because it is more resistant to damage and does not crack in cold weather. In some cases, body kits may also be constructed of carbon fiber, which is a popular, lightweight material. This type of modification is not as highly regarded among speed enthusiasts, though, because it is very costly, and the difference in weight is minimal, versus changing other parts such as the hood or trunk.

Factory fitted body kits are now becoming more common, perhaps in response to the growth of the aftermarket tuning industry in the late nineties and onwards. Many manufacturers now work in-house with their own tuning division to develop styling upgrades.
