Why Glover Customs?

Before we dive into some more specific examples of some of our favorite high-value accessories, we first want to just address traditional customizations such as your lift kit and custom wheels. Pretty much anything you add to your truck build is going to increase the vehicle’s value. A properly installed lift kit can raise any vehicle’s value, as can other traditional customizations like wheels, tires, lights, winches and so on. As long as everything is done well and correctly, your truck is going to be more valuable – both on paper and aesthetically.

High Value Accessories

Now, let’s highlight some of the best accessories to add to your truck if you’re strictly looking to increase its value as much as possible. The following parts are all high in value and are sure to increase the appeal of your vehicle, figuratively and literally.

  • Truck Topper. A truck topper, also known as a camper shell, is a hard or soft covering that fits over the bed of a pickup truck. If you’ve ever seen a pickup truck with an enclosed space in place of its bed, almost resembling an SUV, that’s a truck with a topper. They offer increased protection, storage and accessibility, plus you can use it as a place to sleep while camping.
  • Off-road Bumper. Custom bumpers are some of the most common customizations, but there’s a reason for that. They typically provide superior protection for your vehicle while also making it look way better, plus they can be enhanced with all kinds of things such as lights and that aforementioned winch.
  • Side Steps & Running Boards. Not only do these things protect the sides of your truck from debris while off-roading, they also enhance your truck’s style and practicality. It’s especially important to add side steps to your truck if you have a particularly substantial lift, as it’ll be more difficult for you and passengers alike to get into the cabin.
  • Tonneau Cover. If you don’t like the look or appeal of a truck topper, another way you can supplement the value of your truck is by opting for a tonneau cover instead. These are another hard or soft covering that fits over your truck’s bed, but they’re just meant to help secure cargo and don’t create as large of an enclosed space.
  • LED Light Bars. These are some of the most appealing things you can add to your truck as far as style is concerned, but they’re also incredibly practical for off-roading to enhance visibility at night or in dark locations.
  • Backup Camera. If your truck didn’t come stock with a factory-installed backup camera, you should definitely consider adding one yourself. This technology has become so ingrained in our culture that most people won’t want a truck without one, so it’s a surefire way to increase your truck’s value.
  • Power Inverter. An easy way to add value to your truck is by adding a power inverter. Every truck owner will have something that they could use a power inverter for, from charging your tools to other electronic devices.
  • Locking Tool Boxes. Toolboxes are incredibly valuable on their own, especially good, high quality options. Adding one or more to your truck’s bed is a very easy way to increase your truck’s value.
  • Bed Racks. Versatility is a huge way to increase any vehicle’s value, so adding bed racks to make it easier to organize and store your cargo in the truck bed is a great way to add value.

Hopefully, we’ve given you enough information here to help you pick the best accessories to add value to your custom truck. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to give us a call here at the sales desk. We’d be happy to help!
