Airtech-Streamlining.net – Motorcycle Bodywork

July 10, 2008

A site for devoted riders, Airtech-Streamlining.net is home for Airtech, a leading manufacturer of exotic motorcycle bodywork catering for a large variety of makes and models of sport motorcycles.

By taking a look around, users will be able to discover the full catalogue and pricing of this company’s creations, but not make purchases online (orders can be placed only over the phone); as uncomfortable as this seems, especially for international customers, the fact remains that the site is thorough enough to make the quest for the perfect item a matter of clicks, as users can search for body parts or kits by brand or by category (lighting, handlebars, fuel, etc.), or they can take a look at the gallery of other customer’s projects and look up the items they are most interested in. I was also happy to see that whenever you are taking a look at any motorcycle body kit, you can also view each part separately and can see it in a diagram to understand exactly what part of the kit it is, a feature which probably comes in handy when you receive the parts in the mail.

SuicideDoors.com – Mini Truck Mod Supplies, How To

June 30, 2008

Specializing in Mini Truck modifications, SuicideDoors.com is the way to go not only to purchase your supplies and tools, but to find instructions to get them fitted.

They also sell apparel and accessories which will make a nice gift. While users can take a look at extensive image galleries where to get some inspiration for new projects, they can’t be viewed as slideshows, and the pictures should include information on the modification on the mini truck and a list of products used to get that overall effect, in order to make it easier for customers to shop by ‘look’ instead of by product, which in turn would make it easier for inexpert audiences to become acquainted with the terms and specs of mini truck modifications. The how-to section is impressively thorough, providing a general introduction (with rather sexist remarks) and then text and image tutorials: it would be nice for the site to add a materials/tools checklist to make it easier for users to get everything together before starting. On the good side, note that the product pages include useful information and images, and that a shipping calculator allows users to determine how much they’ll get charged for delivery on the contents of their shopping cart before providing payment information.

DSMtuners.com – Diamond Star Motors

June 28, 2008

Diamond Star Motors are cars that are easily modded for performance and looks, like every mod enthusiast is well aware of. What the enthusiast in question might not know about is this site, a sort of extended forum where a large community of fans joins to discuss all aspects of legal racing and car modifying.

Now, there’s a gazillion sites doing this, but what sets DSMtuners.com well apart from the crowd is the fact that it features shopping guides and introduction articles to the subtle and bold art of modifying a car to achieve a specific level of performance, and also a library of parts for each class of car; the idea behind these wonderful features is that they should work as reference pieces to help new enthusiasts get the feeling and learn from other people’s experience. These areas of the site include links to how-to articles or threads, and also links to get the parts from online retailers. Also very nice about it is that users can create blogs in the site, which then get rated by other users to determine what the best are; DSMtuners.com also hosts a variety of car-related media, like image galleries and videos.
