Body kits are usually installed to BMW 5 Series to give it an eye catching and appealing looks. The automotive industry has made BMW 5 Series body kits available for the owners to have in case they need to transform their car's appearance. These body kits are usually readily available in online stores, auto-part shops and in your local dealers.

 

Body kits are typically made of either fiberglass or polyurethane. Those body kits which are made from fiberglass make the car lighter than its original weight and it needs less effort to install. Fiberglass body kits are also easier to mold than polyurethane.

 

On the other hand, the polyurethane kit tends to be more flexible that it can last longer and stand up better over time. The paint also looks nicer and sleeker when applied to urethane. Among the famous Thunderbird body kits are front and rear bumpers, left side skirts, right side skirt, rear lower wrap, fender flares and front air dam.
