Top 5 Trends of the 2014 SEMA Show

1. Anything and Everything Can Be Modified

Look, if there was anything this year’s SEMA Show proved, it’s that anything and everything can be modified. Tying everything together as a perfect example is this Mercedes Metris van that has been built by long-time Mercedes tuner, Renntech.

It sports a widebody conversion with aggressive front and rear bumpers, but also shows off the versatility of the van as a massive mobile DJ station. And that was hardly the strangest creation on the show floor, especially with Kia on hand converting its Sedona minivan to distribute much-needed beer to showgoers.

The 2015 Honda Fit might be the Japanese automaker’s affordable compact that offers versatility and space at an affordable price, but with nine customized ones sitting in their booth ranging from mild to wild, we have a feeling that there will be plenty more getting modified in the near future.

In fact, the Fit was named this year’s Hottest Sport Compact at the 2014 SEMA Show. One thing is certain; as long as there are cars on the road, there are people looking to make them badder, faster and louder.
