Electric vehicle (EV) customising experts are often asked to help alter cars from their original specifications to better suit a driver’s personal taste. However, when the colder months of the year creep in, these specialist services can help EV owners safeguard their investment in an eco-friendly car, ensure it stays looking at its best and protect both them and their vehicles from potential hazards.
While every car owner knows that vehicles need extra care and maintenance for safe and smooth operation over winter, read on to explore how certain EV modifications and services can be of assistance when the seasons change.
Professional protection on the road
When roads get icy, local authorities grit them to help mitigate the risk of vehicles skidding and sliding off course and harming their drivers. The mixture used often contains rock salt that is corrosive to a car’s bodywork, along with small particles of sand and stone that can chip paint. As drivers plough through this road coating, it’s churned up under their chassis but also sprayed out at other drivers passing by.
Fortunately, EV customising services offer seamless protection against this unwanted assault. Gtechniq coating is not a wax or sealant but a cutting-edge nano covering that creates a permanent shield of protection designed to preserve paintwork while adding depth and glossiness.
Drive safely safer with window tinting
When winter comes and the snow starts to fall, the surfaces coated become reflective. During the day, winter sun hits snow-covered cars, buildings and boundaries, creating glare for drivers. In conditions that are already made more dangerous by weather, this distraction causes impacted visibility creating an additional hazard for drivers.
Window tints can help, however. While this modification is often used by drivers seeking additional style and privacy, tinting windows can make for a much more comfortable driving experience and promotes safety in cold conditions.
De-chroming and paint protection
Winter celebrations like Christmas commonly require urban adventures for gift shopping. At such seasonal times, retail hubs like town centres and high streets are packed with people trying to park in between picking up presents. Preoccupied and often trying to complete a task quickly, they are not always mindful of other people’s cars, increasing the chance of scuffs and scrapes occurring.
While de-chroming is a customisation that EV owners can select to downplay the shiny trim their car ships with, this non-invasive option is also ideal for protecting car parts. The solution effectively wraps specified areas, defending them from daily damage. Additionally, many wraps, such as the ever-popular black vinyl, can minimise the appearance of minor scratches and marks.
Windscreen protection
A windscreen protection film remains entirely removable while offering a defence against the elements. Boasting a weatherproof surface treatment that has excellent hydrophobicity, the DYNOflex windscreen protection film can withstand harshest temperatures and extreme climate conditions. This ensures that your view from behind the wheel remains crystal clear and unimpaired by the elements.
