While purchasing a used powersports vehicle is a great way to save money, these vehicles can sometimes look a little worse for wear. Even if the vehicle in question still performs almost as well as it did when it was factory new, many owners would prefer that it still looked just as good as it runs. Luckily, there are several ways that you can make a used powersports vehicle shine again. Simply follow this guide from the experts at Miller’s Motorsports.

Clean and Wax the Vehicle

Sometimes the only thing your used ATV, UTV, or motorcycle needs is a quick washing and waxing. Bear in mind that certain products may actually harm your vehicle, so be sure to check your owner’s manual to find out which ones are safe. Washing your vehicle will help remove accumulated dirt and discourage deterioration, while waxing will help hide any scratches or minor imperfections.

Give It a Fresh Paint Job

Pre-owned powersports vehicles can often benefit from a new coat of paint. Sometimes, the original paint job will be badly scratched or faded due to sun damage. You might simply not like the current color or want to personalize the vehicle so it feels more like it's yours. Whatever the case, make sure that you only use paints approved by your owner’s manual.

Add Custom Graphics

Many powersports vehicle owners choose to add custom graphics to their rides. Vinyl wraps are popular for this purpose, but you are free to choose whatever sort of design appeals to you. Decals are another easy way to add some personal flair to your vehicle and offer a variety of different designs.

Swap Out the Seat Covers

Used powersports vehicles often have worn-out seat covers. Luckily, replacing a threadbare cover is very easy. There are several different types of seat covers available on the market, so do not be afraid to shop around.

Replace Old Accessories

If your used powersports vehicle came with an aftermarket accessory already installed, you probably saw it as a boon. However, an outdated or worn-down accessory can make the rest of your vehicle look older just by association. If your vehicle’s accessories are showing their age, it may be time to replace them or remove them outright.
