The international version of the Polaris ACE comes with indicators, headlight dimming switches, a horn, a hand brake, and sturdy side-view mirrors, making it road legal. In the US, street legal side-by-sides must have turn signals and mirrors. Installing turning light kits and horn kits is easy and plug-&-play, opening up street-legal ACE customizations to everyone.

What to Look Out for When Buying Polaris ACE Street Legal Upgrades?

State Requirements for Making Your ACE Street Legal

Each state has distinct criteria for what constitutes a street-legal UTV, so thorough research is necessary before buying any components. 

Be sure to consider these factors before making your Polaris ACE street legal.

Requirements include specific types of headlights, taillights, turn signals, and horn decibels, to name a few.

Either way, make sure you understand the regulations for license plate placement and visibility as well.

Opt for street-legal upgrades that comply with the most stringent state regulations. This will not only ensure your Polaris ACE is street-legal in your state but will also make it attractive to potential buyers in other states, enhancing its resale value.

Lastly, keep all receipts and installation manuals to provide proof of compliance during inspections.

Essential Non-Mandated Mods

While some modifications are legally required, others, although not mandatory, add to the safety and convenience of driving your Polaris ACE on public roads.

Adding side mirrors improves visibility, which is crucial in busy urban environments. It's a simple upgrade that significantly enhances safety.

A high-quality exhaust system reduces noise pollution and can improve the overall performance of your Polaris ACE.

Street tires designed for asphalt can provide better grip and ride comfort compared to off-road tires. Consider this upgrade for improved handling and safety on paved roads.

Quality of Street Legal Mods

Opt for reputable materials known for durable and reliable performance. High-quality components ensure safety and reduce the likelihood of failure.

For example, a robust Polaris ACE turn signal setup ensures you remain visible and compliant, reducing the risk of accidents and fines.

While it might be tempting to save money with cheaper parts, investing in high-quality components will save you from potential headaches and additional costs in the long run.

Adaptability and Future Upgrades

Consider the adaptability of the upgrades and how they might fit into future plans for your Polaris ACE.

Systems that can easily be toggled on or off depending on your environment are always a good addition. For example, off-road lighting might be too intense for city streets but perfect for rural roads.

Also, plan for future modifications. Whether you intend to add a more powerful sound system or a winch, ensure that current upgrades will not interfere with or be rendered obsolete by these additions.
