Overview
In Driving Empire, one of the main features of the game is the ability for players to customize their cars. This can be done by driving a car into the Customization Garage, or by using the Mobile Customization which can be purchased for $50,000 or via gamepass for 
50. From here, players can adjust the paint color, the rims, the performance of the vehicle, and much more. This article will cover all available options within the customization menu.

Customization
Overview
The Appearance section of the customization menu is purely cosmetic changes that do not affect the performance of the car. In this section, players can customize the paint color, change the rims, purchase bodykits and more.
Note that some options will not be available on certain vehicles due to the nature of said vehicle. For example, a boat will not have a Rims section as the vehicle does not have any wheels.

The Rims option allows players to customize their rims, whether it be to paint them or change them entirely. Upon choosing the Rims option, players are greeted with two sub-options: Paint Rims and Rim Type. Prior to December 23rd, 2021, there was no sub-option menu, and the only option was to paint the rims.
The Paint Rims sub-option works similarly to the Primary paint option, with only preset colors until December 4th, 2020, where it received a color wheel and reflectance slider. However, the list of preset colors was reduced to just four. RGB support was added on April 10th, 2021, similar to the Primary section.
The Rim Type sub-option was added on December 23rd, 2021, and allows players to change the rims entirely to an aftermarket set. These cost cash to apply, with a couple exceptions.

The Body Kits option was added on December 23rd, 2021 and allows players to modify their car's body using preset packages. Some vehicles have multiple bodykits, while others may only have one. This option also has sub-options for custom spoilers and, in some cases, grilles. All options cost cash to apply.

Overview
The Performance section of the customization menu allows the player to upgrade their vehicle's performance, thereby making the vehicle quicker and faster. This section, and most of its options, were added on December 4th, 2020. The performance upgrades are mostly universal and cost cash to apply, with a few exceptions.
Description
The Suspension option allows players to alter their vehicle's ride height, wheel camber, and wheel offset. The cost of these modifications scale with the change in one of the aforementioned settings, so the more the player changes the suspension, the more it costs.
Prior to July 9th, 2022, the only option was to alter the suspension height. There were five options for suspension height: Lowered, Normal, Lifted, Extra Lifted, and Tank, with the latter two being added on December 23rd, 2021.
Description
The Engine Upgrades option allows players to upgrade the engine's performance, to make the car faster and accelerate quicker. When they were first introduced in December 4th, 2020, the modifications were a lot stronger, but have since been nerfed a couple times.
