Custom Exterior Component Design & Integration

Design-for-Manufacturing (DFM) Review

Every exterior protection and accessory component begins with vehicle integration analysis. Our design and manufacturing teams work with OEMs and custom builders to create structures that deliver impact protection, seamless fitment, and refined aesthetics.

We evaluate every design for load distribution, vehicle geometry compatibility, and manufacturing feasibility. Whether you need impact-rated bumper reinforcements or custom mounting brackets, we optimize for strength, fit, and manufacturability.

Vehicle integration and fitment validation
Load analysis for impact and mounting requirements
Aerodynamic optimization and clearance verification
Material selection for weight, strength, and corrosion resistance
Surface finish specifications for durability and appearance

Vehicle Integration & Validation

From concept to production, we ensure perfect fitment and performance:

CAD Integration — Model components within vehicle geometry and verify clearances
Material & Design Review — Optimize for strength, weight, and manufacturability
48h DFM Feedback — Bending approach, welding strategy, and surface finish recommendations
Test-Fit Verification — Validate fitment before production release

Precision Tube & Sheet Fabrication for Exterior Components

Each exterior component is built using CNC bending, laser cutting, and precision welding. This ensures accurate geometry, strong fastening, and repeatable fitment essential for professional automotive and motorsports applications.

CNC Tube & Sheet Bending

Custom bending for bumper reinforcements and mounting brackets. Tolerances ±0.3–0.8 mm depending on material and geometry.

TIG/MIG Welding & Fastening

Precision welding or bolt-together modular systems. Assembly tolerances ±0.5–1.0 mm confirmed at quote.

Laser Cutting & Drilling

Precision mounting holes, miters, and feature cuts. Tolerances ±0.05–0.1 mm for repeatable fitment.

Materials, Finishing & Durability

Surface Finishing & Protection

Exterior components must withstand UV exposure, moisture, and thermal cycling. We offer a complete range of protective finishes designed to maintain appearance and structural integrity over extended service life.

Powder Coating — Durable, UV-resistant finishes in custom colors. Available in matte, satin, or glossy profiles.
Anodizing — Lightweight protection for aluminum components. Type II (general) or Type III (hard coat) available.
Paint-Grade Preparation — Sanded and primed for customer-applied finish matching vehicle specifications.
Protective Coatings — Industrial-grade coatings for high-temperature or corrosive exposure applications.

Quality Assurance & Testing

Every component undergoes rigorous inspection to ensure durability, fitment, and performance:

First Article Inspection (FAI) with dimensional report
Test-fit verification against vehicle geometry or master samples
In-process weld quality checks (visual and penetrant testing)
Final dimensional verification and functional testing
Surface finish quality inspection before shipment

We provide detailed inspection reports and finish certificates verifying coating thickness, adhesion, and durability per coating standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials work best for exterior protection components?

We use DOM and mild steel for strength, aluminum for weight savings, and stainless steel for corrosion resistance. Material selection is based on impact requirements, weight targets, and finish specifications.

Can you fabricate modular or bolt-together systems?

Yes. We design both welded assemblies and modular systems with standardized fastening points for simplified installation and field serviceability.

Do you offer surface finishing services?

Yes. Powder coating, anodizing, and paint-grade finishing available in-house. We coordinate with specialized partners for custom colors and performance coatings.

What are your tolerances for exterior components?

Bending tolerances range ±0.3–0.8 mm; assembly tolerances are ±0.5–1.0 mm. For critical fitment areas, we verify against vehicle master samples.

How do you ensure proper fitment with vehicle geometry?

We work with detailed vehicle CAD models or physical samples. Test-fit assemblies and dimensional verification ensure seamless integration.

What lead times should I expect?

Typical lead time is 7–10 business days after design confirmation. Complex modular systems or custom finishing may require 10–14 days.
