For many golfers, a golf cart is a necessity on the course. It can become so important that you decide it makes more sense to purchase one than to keep renting it each time you play. So, now that you’ve made the initial investment and you own a golf cart, what are the options in terms of customizing it? We’ve got some creative ideas to make it stand out on the course and look more high-end, all while ensuring it stays practical and functional. Let’s take a look.
There’s No Need to Replace the Seating for a New Look
Seats are one of the first things to show wear and tear on the golf cart, which makes it the perfect area for customization. Installing new seat covers will transform the look of your cart, making it appear modern and fresh.
Besides the basic colors to choose from, you can also find bright colors and even patterned or textured seat covers. Be sure to choose a material that can stand up to the environmental factors it will encounter and that is easy to clean. Another tip is to look for waterproof and UV-resistant options.
Install New Tires and Improve the Ride
If you want to customize the look of your golf cart and improve the ride, consider getting new tires. Be sure to look for combo kits – which means the golf cart wheel and tire are mounted together. In this category, there are basic non-lifted and lifted/oversized wheel packages and golf cart tires.
Save yourself the time and hassle of shopping in person by finding a place that will deliver tires and wheels direct to your door. Keep in mind that most tires are all-terrain style, meaning they can handle most terrain that you drive them on. If you need something higher performing, check out extreme tires. When reading the specs, look for ‘turf state’, which means they can be used on golf courses.
Carry Your Gear in a More Organized Way
Maybe your golf cart is lacking in proper storage space, which means it’s not as functional as it could be. Many golf cart storage accessories can satisfy your need for proper organization, making sure all your gear and equipment has a spot and can be safely secured. Some of the options available for your golf cart include under-seat storage trays, front clays baskets, roof racks, and rear seat bag holders.
Give it a Bold New Look with a Fresh Paint Job
Finally, if you want to make a real splash then a fresh paint job is the way to go. This will instantly make it appear newer and there are no rules when it comes to sticking to a basic or predictable color. Go ahead and let your inner creativity shine and choose something eye-catching that will pop on the course. Depending on the budget, there are even paint shops that can create a custom color, meaning no one else will have it.
Don’t want to paint the golf cart but still want to change up the body? Try looking into golf cart wraps, which are vinyl decals. The great thing about this option is that it tends to be cheaper than a custom paint job, and it’s not permanent. If you grow tired of it, simply remove the wrap.
Each of these upgrades and tips can help you customize your golf cart and make it stand out on the golf course. It will be the golf cart of your dreams in terms of looks, and it will still serve a very important function out on the course.
