An aftermarket modification package designed to alter the external appearance of a specific vehicle model, the Ford Thunderbird. These packages typically include components such as front and rear bumpers, side skirts, and potentially a spoiler, crafted to give the vehicle a more customized or aggressive aesthetic. The purpose is to allow owners to personalize their vehicle beyond the factory-produced options.
The appeal of these modification packages stems from a desire for individuality and enhancement of the vehicle’s inherent style. They provide an opportunity to update the car’s look, potentially emulating a particular racing style or a more contemporary design. Throughout the Thunderbird’s production history, various styling trends have emerged, and these kits allow owners to reflect those trends or create entirely new ones. Further, well-designed and properly installed components can improve aerodynamics, although the primary focus is often aesthetic.
