Service 05
Custom Body Kits
Bodywork that fits the car it was made for. Scanned from the vehicle, shaped against the airflow, made in the material the panel actually needs.
- Surfacing
- Scan-matched · Class-A intent
- Validation
- CFD before tooling
- Construction
- Composite · Printed · Formed
The exchange
What you send, what you get back
Formats and artefacts, stated up front. If a job cannot be described this way it is not ready to start, and that is a cheaper conversation than the first revision.
What you send
- Vehicle scan or make, model and year
- Reference imagery or a direction
- Intended use — road, track, show
- Fixing and clearance constraints
What you get back
- Fitted panels
- Mounting hardware and fixing plan
- Surface CAD
- Fitment notes
Method
How the work runs
Four steps, in this order. The sequence is the point: each one is there to make the next one cheaper to get wrong.
Scan
The vehicle is captured so panels are designed against the car in front of us, not against a published drawing of a car like it.
Surface
The form is developed against the scan — shut lines, radii, clearances and the fixings that will hold it on.
Validate
Aero-relevant surfaces are run in CFD before anything is tooled, so shape decisions are made while they are still cheap.
Build and fit
Panels are made in the chosen construction, trial fitted, and adjusted until the gaps are right.
Qualifiers
What we will and won't claim
Read these before you brief us. They are the parts of the job we cannot promise away, so we say them first rather than last.
- Aerodynamic changes alter how a vehicle behaves. Road-legality and insurance are the owner's responsibility in their jurisdiction.
- Fit quality depends on the condition of the vehicle underneath — we say so before we start, not after.
Also from Proto
The rest of the process
These are written up separately because they are briefed separately — not because they run apart.
- Service 01AI Design GenerationText, sketch or scan to parametric CAD.
- Service 02Rapid PrototypingAdditive, subtractive and electronic prototyping under one process.
- Service 03Material InnovationAI-driven material selection and composites.
- Service 04Performance OptimizationCFD, FEA and thermal simulation.
Send us the part
A brief, a sketch, a scan or a STEP file is enough to start. Tell us what it has to do and we will tell you what we would need to do it.
