This video clip comes from virtus.lyf on Instagram. It captures a unique sight where the premium mid-size sedan is seen in a unique outfit. The sedan has been thoroughly wrapped in a gold shade. This colour compliments the understated but elegant design of the VW Virtus really well. Looking closely, one could also see the red insert on the lower section of the sleek grille just above the bumper which gives a unique contrast to the overall appearance of the car. The large chrome elements surrounding the fog lamps look flamboyant.

What We Think
The trend of aftermarket car modification is at an all-time high. People take their brand-new vehicles to car shops almost immediately after purchase. While we understand the curiosity behind it, we must mention that there are innumerable players in the market. You must make sure to visit only the ones who have years of experience and professional mechanics. Otherwise, you might face issues later on. Furthermore, you should not go for major modifications since most of these are illegal in India. But if you still wish to go for them, make sure to consult your local RTO beforehand and get the necessary permissions and editing to the registration certificate. In this way, you won’t have any problems with the cops later on.
