A collection of aftermarket components designed to alter the exterior aesthetics of a 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse. These kits typically include replacement front and rear bumpers, side skirts, and occasionally, a new hood or rear spoiler. The purpose is to give the vehicle a more aggressive, sporty, or personalized appearance. Examples can range from subtle enhancements to dramatic transformations of the vehicle’s original lines.
The installation of such modifications can significantly impact the visual appeal and perceived value of the vehicle. In the early 2000s, the aftermarket automotive industry saw a surge in popularity, driven by trends in motorsports and customization culture. These kits offered owners a relatively accessible way to express individuality and enhance their car’s presence. However, factors like quality of materials, fitment, and proper installation are crucial for achieving the desired outcome and maintaining the car’s structural integrity.
