Autotique

The Bodykit Brand

Autotique was created to answer a simple problem: the world doesn’t need more kits — it needs better ones.

Designs to cater those who like subtle changes to those who demand presence. Offered in both fiberglass and carbon fibre, both are manufactured to the highest quality using very strict manufacturing processes.

Every Autotique piece is designed from the ground up for real-world performance, OEM+ fitment, and showroom-level finish. It's the art of carbon, elevated.

Where Bodyform Aero installs — Autotique innovates.

Bodyform Aero

The Installation Studio

Bodyform Aero is Peter’s personal workshop and creative studio — where the tools, torches, and templates come to life. It’s here that kits are test-fitted, reshaped, perfected, and installed with artisan precision.

If you’ve seen a clean widebody Senna NSX at a car show or a Veilside RX7's that looks like it belongs on a time attack grid — there’s a good chance Bodyform touched it.

Where Art Meets Engineering.

Crafted for the discerning enthusiast, our carbon fibre lip kits are a statement in both performance and precision. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, each piece is meticulously hand-laid using Toray carbon fibre — globally renowned for its strength, weight savings, and flawless aesthetic. We apply Toray carbon fibre to both the inner and outer layers, ensuring unmatched consistency, durability, and visual depth.

Internally, we reinforce with twin layers of structural composite, forming the backbone of our quad-layer composite structure — a purposeful blend of rigidity, impact resistance, and weight reduction. This isn't your average fiberglass. This is engineered structure, built for the street, track, and show.

What sets us apart?

  • Premium Toray carbon fibre – inside and out

  • Quad-layer composite structure – engineered strength that doesn’t compromise on finish

  • Exceptional material thickness for real-world durability

  • Perfect directional weave alignment for symmetry that turns heads, even at a standstill

  • OEM+ fitment – aggressive where it counts, refined everywhere else

FAQs

What makes your body kits different?

We combine precision fitment, premium materials, and design-led aesthetics tailored for car enthusiasts who demand more. Every piece is developed with a focus on visual impact and engineering integrity, ensuring both presence and performance.

What vehicles do you currently support?

Our initial range supports select performance and enthusiast platforms. We’re continuously expanding, so check our product pages or sign up for updates to see upcoming vehicle compatibility.

Are your body kits full replacements or add-ons?

This varies by design. Some of our kits are full replacement panels, while others are overfenders or extensions designed to work with factory body lines. Each product listing includes detailed product notes.

What materials do you use?

Our bodykits are constructed from high-quality materials based on application needs, including FRP (fibreglass-reinforced plastic) & Carbon Fibre. Contact us if you prefer a different Matte Finish Clear (optional).

Do the kits come pre-painted?

No. All FRP parts of bodykits are delivered in a gel coat finish unless otherwise specified. We recommend professional surface preparation, paint, and fitment to ensure a show-quality finish. All Carbon Fibre parts are supplied finished in High-Gloss 2K UV Clear Coat. 

Is professional installation required?

Yes. Due to the complexity and precision required for fitting bodykits, we strongly recommend professional installation by a reputable body shop or tuner experienced with aftermarket panels.

Do your kits require any modification to install?

Some kits may require trimming, drilling, or bonding, depending on the vehicle and desired finish. Fitment tolerances are built to OE standards where possible, but aftermarket styling naturally demands adjustment.

Do you provide installation instructions?

No, professional installation is recommended. 

Hardware included. 

Are your parts suitable for street use?

Yes, our kits are designed with real-world usability in mind. That said, extremely aggressive designs or race-inspired kits may reduce ground clearance or affect visibility and should be fitted with awareness of local regulations.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We ship worldwide. Shipping costs and times will vary based on your region, and freight quotes for larger kits (e.g. widebody setups) are available on request.

What’s your return policy?

Due to the made-to-order nature of our kits, we generally do not accept returns unless the item is damaged in transit or there is a manufacturing defect. All issues must be reported within 48 hours of delivery via email with images and a description of the issue. 

Do you take custom requests?

We’re open to custom project collaborations, especially for limited builds or show cars. Reach out via our contact page to discuss your concept, and we’ll let you know what’s possible.

Can I become a dealer or installer?

We’re actively building our network of authorised dealers and certified installers. If you're interested, please visit our dealer application page or contact us directly.
