The McLaren 720S Widebody Kit, Explained
The 720S offers something no other widebody exotic can: the conversion doesn't cut the car. McLaren builds around a carbon-fibre monocoque tub with unstressed body panels hung off it — so where a Lamborghini widebody means sawing structure-adjacent metal, a 720S conversion largely means unbolting panels and fitting wider ones, with the original set stored in the garage. That architecture rewrote the exotic-widebody calculus for this car: the road back to stock genuinely exists, and the aftermarket built on it — carbon wide programmes whose reversibility is a selling point alongside the drama.
Budgeting a 720S Widebody Kit Build
The 720S widebody market is carbon-native and reversibility-aware. The recognisable programmes — 1016 Industries at the forefront, with Novitec and the design houses alongside — build in carbon and composite for a car whose owners expect the material, in the $15,000–$40,000-plus band that reflects it, and the panel-swap architecture means full conversions install without the irreversibility premium other exotics pay. The taste question is McLaren-specific: the 720S body is aerodynamic function made visible — every channel feeds something — so credible width extends the aero story rather than decorating over it, and the best kits read like McLaren Special Operations experiments. The value note stays gentler than Italian rivals: 720S depreciation made donors genuinely attainable by supercar standards, and stored-original-panels preserve the exit regardless. The honest caution is quality: on bodywork this aero-driven, poorly-engineered panels announce themselves at speed, not just in photographs.
See your 720S first, then commit the money
A wide 720S can always go home again — the panels unbolt — which makes the render the zero-cost first fitting rather than the substitute for one. See your actual 720S wide before ordering carbon. TunedRides does it in about 30 seconds.
Upload your 720S photo, free →Rendering a Widebody Kit on Your 720S: Three Steps
- 1Upload a photo of your 720S. Upload any decent photo; a three-quarter or side view suits bodywork modifications like widebody kits best. JPG or PNG, up to 10MB.
- 2Select Widebody Kit as your style. The model reads your 720S's panels and stance and applies the style to your actual car, never a template.
- 3Download your render. About half a minute and it's done. Free is watermarked; Pro ($14/mo or $69/yr) delivers 250 HD renders a month with no watermark, built to share.
