The performance shop Virginia Beach drivers trust: an authorized dealer for 30+ premium brands and a hub for the local car community.
Simple Details has been a high-end automotive restyling studio from the start, and performance has been part of the work for years. SD Performance Virginia Beach grew because the demand was there and the reputation had been earned.
Performance means something different to every owner. For some it is a louder exhaust note and a lower stance; for others, forced induction and a tune that makes the car behave. Every build is approached the same way: understand what you actually want, then make it happen with the brands worth working with.
Every build starts with a conversation about goals, aesthetics and budget before we recommend a single part.
Direct partnerships with 30+ premium brands mean real parts, real warranties and real expertise.
A hub for the Virginia Beach car community, present at the meets, the events and the shows.
The precision earned across paint protection and ceramic coating, held on every install.
Whether the goal is a sharper exhaust note or a complete system, we supply and fit Milltek exhaust and Akrapovic exhaust systems as an authorized dealer, so fitment, warranty and support stay under one roof. A single exhaust install can often be completed in a day.
For an engine that breathes as well as it sounds, a carbon fiber Eventuri intake pairs naturally with either system and gives the engine bay a finish worth opening the hood for.
H&R Springs and coilover setups dialed to how you actually drive, from the daily commute to a dedicated track build.
From a first forced induction upgrade to a full build with supporting modifications, our technicians walk you through the full impact of a change: the gains you will feel, how it pairs with your current setup and what the car needs long term.
We do not do custom dyno tuning. We specialize in safe flash tunes sourced exclusively through trusted tuning partners, so check their list to confirm a tune is available for your year, make and model. No surprises.
Tell us what you are working with and where you want to take it. We map goals, platform and budget before naming a part.
A realistic scope and timeline, with warranty coverage explained before work begins.
As an authorized dealer for 30+ brands, we source the parts and manage the order. You bring nothing but the car.
Experienced technicians handle every install, from a one-day exhaust to a full forced induction build.
Custom forged wheels from HRE, Brixton Forged and MV Forged are specified and fitted in-house, with the fitment and compatibility checks every set deserves.
Vorsteiner aero, Urban Automotive body kits and carbon fiber cosmetic work complete the look, from splitters and spoilers to interior trim, installed with the same care as the film and coatings the studio is known for.
Many clients arrive knowing they want to do something to their car, not yet what. Come in, tell us what you are thinking, and we will help you figure out the rest.
“I’m picky who works on my cars. These folks do a great job because they pay close attention to detail — it’s what you expect from someone working on a luxury car.”
“They went above and beyond by removing the old splitter, fitting the new one and wrapping it. Due to the make and model, a regular body shop with no experience with specialty vehicles was not going to suffice.”
“Showed up Thursday and they took care of the job in half the quoted time and it was done flawlessly. Couldn’t be happier.”
For the most part, yes. We work with a wide range of vehicles, but there is an important detail worth knowing before you call. We don’t do custom dyno tuning. What we specialize in is safe flash tunes sourced exclusively through our trusted tuning partners. That distinction matters because it affects what we can and can’t support. If your tune is coming from outside our partner network, there’s always a variable we can’t fully account for. We’ve seen compatibility issues and inconsistent results that could have been avoided, so we’re upfront about it rather than figuring it out after you’ve already made the trip. We’d recommend taking a quick look at our trusted partners list and confirming that a tune is available for your specific year, make and model before reaching out for a quote. If
Pretty much everything. We work on domestic and imported vehicles across all makes and models. Whether it’s a daily driver, a weekend car or a dedicated track build, we’ve seen it and worked on it.
We ask that you book a consultation first, especially for performance work. It gives us time to sit down with you, understand what you’re going for and put together a proper plan before anything gets started.
We handle everything. As authorized dealers for over 30 brands, we source the parts, manage the order and handle the install. You don’t need to bring anything in. We are committed to providing a white-glove experience to you and your vehicle and work to handle everything throughout the build process.
In some cases yes, but we’ll want to talk through it first. Fitment, compatibility and quality all factor in, and we want to make sure whatever goes on your car is going to work properly.
It depends entirely on the scope of work. A single exhaust install might take a day. A full forced induction build with supporting modifications takes considerably longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your consultation so there are no surprises.
Yes. Warranty coverage varies by service and by brand, but we stand behind our installs and we use parts from manufacturers who do the same. We’ll walk you through what’s covered before we get started.
Completely. A lot of our clients come in knowing they want to do something to their car but aren’t sure what. That’s exactly what the consultation is for. Come in, tell us what you’re thinking and we’ll help you figure out the rest.
A build plan mapped to your goals, your platform and your budget. SD Performance Virginia Beach serves enthusiasts across Hampton Roads, Norfolk, Chesapeake and Suffolk.
