Looking to kit up your pickup truck but don't know where to start? Then you've come to the right blog post! We will be going over what we think are the top 10 accessories to send your truck to the next level.
Fender Flares/Arch Kits
Probably one of the most popular modifications to do across all pickup trucks, adding a wide arch kit not only makes your truck look cooler and more dynamic, but also allows for the installation of larger, more impressive wheels and tires, further enhancing the truck's off-road capability and visual impact.
One of our favourites: The Overland Extreme smooth style arch kit for the Mercedes X-Class, these look great in their matte black finish, or colour coded to your truck.
Wheels and Tyres
This may seem like an obvious one, but changing out the wheels and tyres on your truck can make a huge difference to it, even if it's the only change you do. Stock wheels can sometimes look lost compared to the rest of your truck, so switching these out for something beefier and more stylish can make your Ranger go from looking like a shopping trolley to an absolute monster!
One of our favourites: Fuel Vapors paired with a meaty set of all terrain tyres will make an impression out on the roads

Bull Bars/Nudge Bars
As mentioned in our previous blog post, adding a nudge bar or bull bar to your vehicle boosts its rugged look and offers extra protection. These bars give your truck a tougher appearance and help guard against minor bumps and obstacles. It's a simple upgrade that makes your truck look great and ready for off-road adventures.
Lift Kits
Upgrading to a lift kit on your pickup makes a huge improvement both aesthetically and practically. A lift kit elevates your truck, giving it a more commanding and aggressive stance that immediately catches the eye. This modification provides practical benefits such as improved ground clearance for tackling rough terrains and better visibility on the road.
Not ready to fork out a few grand for a full set up or just unsure if a lift kit is for you? Try one of our cost effective 2" lift kits, like this lift kit for the Nissan Navara - these will give you a noticeable lift without breaking the bank.
Bonnet Scoops
This one’s a bit marmite, but when done correctly bonnet scoops can really look the part! Though they are a love/hate item due to their plastic construction and the fact that they stick onto the bonnet with 3M tape, they offer an easy and cost-effective way to give your truck a sporty and aggressive look. Perfect for those who want to personalise their vehicle without committing to permanent modifications, bonnet scoops can be a stylish addition to any Ranger.
One of our favourites: Go big or go home, the Beast bonnet scoop for the Ford Ranger will definitely get attention out on the road!
Wind Deflectors
These are an easy to install sleek item, that make a huge difference to your truck. These do what they say on the tin, these will help to reduce those horrible choppy windy noises when you're sending your truck down the motorway! Wind deflectors don’t just reduce wind noise and turbulence, but they also add a cool, streamlined look to the vehicle.
Side Steps
Made from durable steel, they are built to withstand tough conditions, offering protection to the truck's lower sides from rocks and debris during off-road adventures. By adding a set of these side steps, you give your truck a tougher, more imposing look while also boosting its usability and safeguarding its exterior.
Grilles
Upgrading the grille is a simple yet impactful modification that can significantly enhance its visual appeal. A new grille, especially one with a bold design or unique finish, can give your truck a fresh, aggressive look, setting it apart from stock models. This upgrade allows you to express your personal style, making your vehicle truly your own.
Trim Covers
Who likes chrome? Not us! Rather than messing about with the likes of PlastiDip or vinyl, why not invest in some plastic covers? Not only will this keep the parts underneath protected in the long run but is a cost effective and non-permanent way to change the colour of some of your truck's parts.
Roll bars
Upgrading the roll bar on your truck makes it look tougher and more stylish. It adds a bold, rugged touch that sets your truck apart. If you’re thinking of adding a roll bar to your truck, make sure to check first that it’s compatible with any tonneau cover/roller shutter you may have on.
