The car tuning market is as old as the car industry itself. People have explored ways of improving the exterior, interior, and performance of their cars for decades. For years, most legislators didn’t pay attention to this part of the automobile world since the modifications weren’t serious. After all, they didn’t affect the performance, safety, or stability of vehicles in a major way.<\/p>\n
However, in the last few decades, the car tuning scene in the USA has exploded. From coast to coast, car tuners are introducing many products that thoroughly change the driving dynamics and road holding. Some components are strictly aesthetic enhancements, but some are expensive suspension, engine, or chassis modifications. But since most of these products can change the manufacturer’s specifications, affect the car’s stability or even reduce the driver’s visibility, lawmakers have changed the traffic rules.<\/p>\n
So now, in most states, the rules of the road forbid car owners to use dangerous or risky parts or components that can affect visibility, lights, stability or emissions. In fact, you could face a big fine if you get caught. Of course, your local laws may vary, but almost all the mods on this list are illegal in most of America.<\/p>\n
