Hey fellow Chevy enthusiasts,

I’ve been considering some aftermarket modifications for my 2020 Chevy Malibu, particularly focusing on body kits. I’m really interested in enhancing the look of my car and maybe even improving its aerodynamics.

What to Consider:

  • Types of Body Kits: I’m looking at options like front bumpers, side skirts, hoods, and spoilers. Has anyone here tried any specific kits? Which ones have made a noticeable difference?
  • Compatibility Issues: Any recommendations on brands that are known for quality kits that fit the 2020 Malibu perfectly? I want to avoid any fitting issues down the line.
  • Installation: Should I consider professional installation, or are these kits user-friendly enough for a DIY project? I have some experience with basic car modifications but need to know what’s realistic.
  • Performance: If you’ve upgraded your Malibu’s body kit, did you notice any changes in performance or handling?

Aesthetic Goals:

I’m also keen on achieving a particular look that pops without going overboard. If you’ve customized your Malibu, I’d love to see some pictures!

Thanks in advance for your help and insights. Let’s keep this thread alive with ideas and recommendations so we can help each other out in enhancing our beloved Malibus!

I’m also looking into body kits for my Malibu! I’ve heard that the Duraflex kits offer great styles and flexibility with a fiberglass combination. Anyone tried it?

I’ve used the Duraflex front lip, and it really enhances the look of the car! Just be cautious, as the fiberglass can be a bit fragile.

Definitely check out the 3dCarbon kit! It’s stylish and fits perfectly on the 2020 models. I love how it gives my Malibu a sportier vibe without going overboard.

The 3dCarbon kit looks sleek! Do you think it affects the car’s performance at all?

I didn’t notice any performance issues with the 3dCarbon kit. It’s more about aesthetics, but a good kit can still help with airflow a bit. Plus, it just looks awesome!

Are there any options made from ABS plastic? I’ve heard they can be more durable than fiberglass, especially for everyday driving.

Yes! The Maxton Design kits are made from high-quality ABS. They have a great variety of styles too. Anyone else tried Maxton for their Malibu?

I’ve read good things about Maxton. But do they offer much variety? I want something unique!

They have plenty of unique options! You can customize your front, side, and rear diffusers for a coordinated look. Plus, their customer service is top-notch.

I installed mine myself, and I have no prior experience. Most kits come with clear instructions. Just make sure to have a good set of tools and some patience!

That’s great to hear! I’m kind of nervous about DIY, but it sounds manageable. Thanks for the encouragement!

You can find solid options from about $600 to $1500, depending on the brand and materials. Cheaper doesn’t always mean worse, so do some research before buying!

Haha, yes! And don’t forget some patience! The installation can be tricky; I had to redo mine a couple of times to get it right.

That’s true! I tried a DIY approach, but ended up going to a professional after I struggled with the front bumper. Worth the extra cash to ensure it looks good!
