The streets just got a whole lot more personal. The recent HUGE NEW UPDATE didn’t just bring airdrops and crew systems – it finally dropped the vehicle customization system we’ve been waiting for. Now you can trick out your ride and make a statement as you navigate the gritty world of BlockSpin.
But how does it work? What can you actually change? Does it cost an arm and a leg in Cash? And does that spoiler really make you faster?
Forget guesswork. This is your definitive, deep-dive guide to BlockSpin car customization. We’ll cover how to access the modding system, break down every known and likely option (visual and performance), talk costs, and give you tips to customize like a pro. Let’s get started.
Before you can start modding, you need a car and know where to go. Here’s the step-by-step:
Step 1: Own a Vehicle (Buying Crates)
- You can’t customize what you don’t have. In BlockSpin, personal vehicles primarily come from Vehicle Crates purchased at garage locations (look for the car icons on your map).
- Different tiers impact the quality and type of car you might get:
- Basic Car Crate: ~$540 Cash
- Rare Car Crate: ~$1,350 Cash
- Elite Car Crate: ~$12,400 Cash
- Save up your Cash, head to a garage, and try your luck!
Step 2: Find a Customization Spot
- Once you have a vehicle spawned, drive it to a designated customization location.
- These are typically the same garages where you buy crates, or potentially dedicated mod shops if added.
- Look for prompts or specific areas within the garage.
Step 3: Use the Customization Menu
- Entering the customization zone with your vehicle should bring up a dedicated menu.
- Expect an interface likely similar to the dealership, but focused solely on modification options.
- You’ll probably see categories for different parts of the car you can change.
Confirmed Visual Customization Options
Based on gameplay footage and update breakdowns following the recent patch, here’s what we know you can change visually:
Paint Colors (Primary & Secondary)
- This is the most fundamental customization. You can change the main body color and likely secondary colors on many vehicles.
- How: Look for a general “paint” icon or section in the menu. Some specific car models (like the G Wagon mentioned in community videos) might have unique interaction points (e.g., tapping a specific line on the model) to access color schemes.
- Note: Community reports suggest some methods might not change rim color, indicating different customization pathways might exist. There might also be special codes for unique colors released periodically.
Rims / Wheels
- Swapping out your wheels for a fresh look is confirmed to be part of the new system.
- Expect a selection of different rim styles to choose from to match your car’s aesthetic.
Suspension / Ride Height
- You can adjust your vehicle’s stance.
- Lowering or raising the ride height is primarily a visual tweak included in the update, letting you get that slammed look or a higher clearance.
While not explicitly detailed in every piece of available info for BlockSpin specifically, many features are standard across Roblox vehicle customization systems. It’s highly likely BlockSpin includes or will soon include options like:
Body Kits & Spoilers
- Changing bumpers, side skirts, hoods, and adding spoilers are common features.
- Given the “Hood games” theme, expect options ranging from subtle to aggressive.
Lights & Window Tints
- Customizing headlight/taillight colors (where allowed by game rules)
- Adding window tint are popular ways to personalize.
Interior Customization
- Some Roblox games allow changing interior colors or materials.
- This might be a possibility in BlockSpin for further personalization, though often less detailed than exterior mods.
While these are highly likely based on the platform and the fact a customization update occurred, treat them as probable additions until you see them directly in-game or confirmed by official sources/reliable community showcases.
Performance Customization: What’s the Deal?
Okay, so you can make your car look cool, but can you make it faster or handle better?
Engine, Suspension Tuning, Brakes, etc.
- As of the initial customization update, there is no strong evidence that detailed performance tuning is included in BlockSpin.
- Many Roblox customization systems focus purely on visuals first.
- While the platform can support detailed tuning (seen in dedicated racing games), BlockSpin’s update seems visually focused for now.
- Don’t expect deep performance tuning yet.
Do Visual Mods Affect Performance?
Generally, purely visual mods have little to no impact on core stats like speed or acceleration.
- Spoilers: In some games (like GTA Online), spoilers can add a tiny amount of traction. It’s possible spoilers in BlockSpin might offer a similar small handling benefit, but this isn’t confirmed.
- Ride Height/Stance: Lowering suspension could slightly alter handling characteristics, but likely minimally without a deeper physics overhaul.
Assumption: Assume performance changes are negligible unless proven otherwise in-game. Focus on looks and personal preference for now.
Vehicle Crate Price Comparison
| Crate Type | Price (Cash) | Vehicle Quality |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Car Crate | ~$540 | Common vehicles, lower performance |
| Rare Car Crate | ~$1,350 | Uncommon vehicles, better performance |
| Elite Car Crate | ~$12,400 | Rare vehicles, premium performance |
Pro Tips for Smart Customization
Don’t just slap on random parts. Customize with purpose:
Function Over Flash (Initially)
- While performance tuning isn’t confirmed, consider practicalities.
- If you’re constantly in chases, maybe avoid extremely lowered suspension that gets caught on curbs.
- But since it’s mostly visual now, focus on what you like!
Budget Your Bling
- Don’t drain your entire Cash balance on cosmetics if you still need better weapons or gear.
- Balance your spending between looking good and being effective.
Match Your Playstyle
- Want an intimidating look for rolling up on rivals? Go for aggressive styling.
- Prefer a low-key approach? Choose more subtle mods and colors.
- Your car is an extension of your street persona.
Crew Up for Benefits?
- The new crew system might offer shared resources or benefits.
- See if coordinating car styles or pooling resources for mods is a part of your crew’s strategy.
Protect Your Investment
- Remember, BlockSpin can be brutal. A customized car is still vulnerable.
- Utilize safe zones (like Sam’s Motel, Pawn Shop) when possible.
- Be prepared to defend your ride or face losing it!
Conclusion: Your Ride, Your Rules
The arrival of vehicle customization marks a significant evolution for BlockSpin, adding a much-requested layer of personalization. While the system currently seems focused heavily on visual modifications like paint, rims, and suspension adjustments, it lays the groundwork for potentially deeper options in the future.
- Get a Vehicle: Buy crates from garages to obtain your base car.
- Find a Customization Spot: Drive to a garage or dedicated mod shop.
- Personalize: Choose colors, rims, and stance to match your style.
- Budget Wisely: Balance cosmetic upgrades with practical needs.
- Protect Your Investment: A custom ride makes you a target—be ready!
For now, dive in and express yourself! Use this guide to understand how to access the system, what you can likely change, and how to manage the costs using in-game Cash earned through your street activities. Keep an eye on official channels (like the developer’s social media or the Roblox game page) and trusted community sources (YouTube, Discord) for news on any expanded features or performance tuning options down the line.
Get out there, earn your Cash, hit the garage, and build the ride that truly represents your status on the streets of BlockSpin!
