When you think of a fast car there are a few that come to mind, and a Camaro is for sure one of them. There are many of these on the road, and most seem to be in some sort of stock condition. If you choose to modify your ride using ground effects, you have taken a step into the world of car body customization.
There is no better way to personalize your vehicle then with ground effects, also known as body kits. These ground effects come in many different style and designs. Some will be mostly for show and some will be mostly for performance, but some will give you both. Most people think that ground effects are simply there to make your car look hot, which it does but it does serve a greater purpose as well.
Ground effects will enhance the performance and handling of your car. If too much air flows under the car you will get some lift from the wind causing you too loose much needed traction at higher speeds. These ground effects will cut that wind over and around your automobile creating an opposite effect. This is called down force. With this down force created by your ground effects you will find yourself with improved traction and handling as well.
Ground effects typically come with 3 main components, front bumper, rear bumper, and side skirts. Some ground effects kits will also include fender flares, or wide body fenders to create a wide body kit. Normally made from fiberglass or urethane, ground effects kits can also come in carbon fiber or even a brands custom blend of plastic resins and other materials.
Ground Effects Add-Ons Include:
- Spoiler or Wing
- Canards
- Wind Splitter
- Carbon Fiber Mirrors
- Vertical Doors
- And More
So picture your ride with a ground effects kit, spoiling your competition and being the envy of all alike.
