Get the Most Out of Your Upgrade and Optimize Your Ride at Auto Image
Aftermarket truck accessories are a great way to personalize your vehicle and make it stand out from others on the road. And with do-it-yourself installations becoming more popular, you may feel tempted to take things into your own hands. However, this could end up costing you a whole lot more than you initially planned.
To truly get the most out of your new installment and make sure it’s working properly, it’s important to have your truck accessories installed by a professional. At Auto Image, we offer some of the best truck accessories in New Jersey, plus expert technicians, making it easier than ever to customize your vehicle with your own unique flair.
Here are just five reasons you should avoid DIY truck accessories installation, and how our professional installers can help.
#1 – A Faulty Installation
Your truck is a complex machine made up of several different parts. While the Internet seems like a beneficial place to ask questions and follow tutorials on auto installations, it isn’t always a reliable source. Trucks vary so greatly from make, model, and even model year that it is almost impossible to find an online video or article that accurately describes how to install truck accessories in the one you own.
This could then lead to an insufficient installation that causes your new accessory to not work to its highest potential, or worse, one that ultimately damages your truck.
#2 – Your Safety
When you decide to install your own truck accessories, you immediately put yourself and others at risk. You could injure yourself in the process of installing your equipment, or later on if you haven’t installed your accessory correctly.
To prevent injury, your aftermarket truck accessories should be left to a professional installer who has the experience and knowledge needed to safely work on your car.
#3 – You Need the Right Tools
As we mentioned earlier, every truck’s make, model, year, and history makes it entirely unique, meaning you’ll need a set of specific – and expensive – tools to get the job done. Knowing which tools your truck needs can be confusing, and it can also be difficult to get your hands on them for a reasonable cost.
When it comes to truck accessory installations, you shouldn’t just settle for less than perfection. A successful installation can only be done with the proper tools. A professional will have them and know exactly how to use them, too.
#4 – It Could Be Expensive
People take on do-it-yourself projects in an effort to save money, but this isn’t always the case. If you aren’t a professional, it’s likely that you don’t already have all the tools and equipment needed to install your aftermarket truck accessories. It’s also likely that you’ll make a mistake that costs even more to correct. The accessories themselves, plus other required expenses, can quickly add up. Soon, you’ve paid more than a professional installation would have cost in the first place.
And if your accessory hasn’t been correctly installed, it’s likely that you’ll need frequent repairs, taking even more money out of your pocket. Your best bet is to get your upgrade installed at a truck accessory store near you.
#5 – It’s Time Consuming
Attempting your own installation can take time, especially when you’re being cautious to avoid mistakes. And if you do make a mistake, you’ll need to work backward to resolve it. You’ll also need to dedicate time to reading and learning about your truck and the installation itself. To enjoy your new truck accessory as soon as possible, leave it to a professional.
At Auto Image, our installers will complete your new upgrade in a timely manner and ensure the job is done correctly, even offering a warranty on our work. You’ll save yourself both time and frustration. It’s better to simply trust your new accessory has been installed just right.
How Can I Upgrade My Truck?
At Auto Image, our aftermarket accessories make it easy to customize your ride and bring your dream truck to life. Here are just some upgrades you’ll find at our truck accessory store:
#1 Truck Leveling
A leveling kit is an aftermarket truck accessory that aligns the front of your truck with its rear, giving your vehicle a balanced, even stance. It not only enhances the appearance of your ride with a higher ground clearance, but it also provides you with the space necessary for larger wheels and tires. Leveling your truck can also optimize its off-roading capabilities, if you tend to travel off the beaten path.
#2 Bed Covers
Bed covers are a great accessory to protect and add privacy to the bed of your truck. When you shop the inventory of our truck accessory store, you’ll find a selection of bed covers that vary in design and functionality. The choice is yours between hard, soft, one-piece, or rolling covers that allow you to easily and conveniently access and protect your cargo.
#3 Running Boards and Nerf Bars
Running boards improve the overall aesthetic of your ride, and make it easier to get in and out of your truck. They can also prevent road debris from reaching your vehicle. At our truck accessory store, you can paint your running boards to match the color of your car, or make a statement with a different color entirely. Or, opt for nerf bars if you live the off-road lifestyle.
