Who we are

Owner-Operated Craftsmanship Since 2010

Every build passes through Mario's hands

38Carmodz was founded on a simple principle: a modified car should drive better than it looks. Mario personally leads every project, from a single front lip to a full widebody conversion with air management, so nothing leaves the shop without an expert signature on it.

Because we specialize exclusively in high-end sports and luxury platforms, we understand factory tolerances, panel geometry and suspension kinematics — the details that separate a clean, durable build from an expensive mistake.

  • Specialist experience

    Over a decade of exotic and performance vehicle modification.

  • Controlled facility

    Dust-free bays purpose-built for PPF, wraps and coatings.
