Performance Customisation

Performance Parts are customisable car parts available from the Customisation section of the Safehouse and can modify a vehicle's performance capabilities in a variety of ways.

The player's ability to customise their vehicle's performance was added in patch 5.00 on November 16th, 2010.

Parts can be purchased from the Performance Parts section of the Safehouse, acquired from Lucky Draw card packs by completing events, purchasing Performance Part card packs or completing Treasure Hunts.
