Short answer: the best E-Z-GO body kit is the one built for your exact model and generation. Most current full replacement kits target TXT carts, and a kit that fits one TXT year range may not line up correctly with another body, dash, light kit, or rocker-panel setup.
Before ordering, identify whether your cart is TXT, RXV, or another E-Z-GO platform. If you are also planning lighting or seat upgrades, check our E-Z-GO light kit guide and E-Z-GO seat guide.
What a golf cart body kit can include
Body-kit listings vary. Some are complete front-and-rear replacement shells, while others are trim panels, rocker panels, cowl pieces, or hardware kits. Read the included-parts list closely. A lower-priced listing may be only one body section rather than a complete conversion.

MADJAX Storm body kit for E-Z-GO TXT
This is a full cosmetic conversion aimed at TXT-family carts. It is useful for owners who want a major exterior refresh rather than replacing one damaged panel. Confirm the stated year range and whether your existing lights, windshield, and trim will transfer.
MADJAX Storm body kit in Gunmetal Metallic
This is another color option from the same body-kit family. The important buying decision is not color first; it is whether the shell and mounting points match your TXT generation and current accessories.
10L0L body rivet and hardware kit
A hardware kit is not a replacement body, but it can be useful during a body swap when old clips and rivets are brittle, missing, or damaged. Verify that the fastener types match the panels you are installing.
TXT vs RXV body fitment
E-Z-GO TXT and RXV carts have different body shapes and mounting structures. A TXT body kit should not be treated as a universal E-Z-GO kit. This is one of the most common mistakes when shopping by brand alone.
If you own an RXV, look specifically for RXV panels or model-specific cosmetic parts instead of trying to adapt a TXT shell.
What to inspect before a body swap
- Frame and mounting tabs: repair bent or cracked mounting points first.
- Lighting: confirm whether the new body has openings for your headlight and taillight style.
- Windshield and struts: check clearance around the cowl and front roof supports.
- Dash accessories: verify switches, charging ports, and storage inserts will still fit.
- Rear-seat kit: check how rear body panels meet the seat frame and footrest.
Painted body vs molded-color body
Painted finishes can provide a more automotive appearance but may show scratches differently. Molded-color panels can hide minor scuffs better because the color is not only on the surface. The better choice depends on how the cart is used and how much cosmetic maintenance you want to do.
Installation difficulty
A body swap is more involved than changing seat covers or mirrors. You may need to remove lights, trim, rocker panels, hardware, windshield supports, and rear accessories. Photograph wiring and fastener locations before disassembly. Label connectors instead of relying on memory during reassembly.
After installation, verify that steering, pedals, seat hinges, charging access, and suspension movement do not contact the new body.
Should you replace or repair the existing body?
Small cracks, faded trim, and cosmetic scratches may be cheaper to repair. A full body kit makes more sense when multiple panels are damaged, you want a complete color change, or the existing shell has extensive cracking. Structural frame damage should be repaired before installing new cosmetic panels.
Frequently asked questions
Do E-Z-GO TXT body kits fit RXV carts?
No. TXT and RXV bodies are different platforms. Buy a kit specifically made for your cart.
Can I reuse my light kit with a new body?
Sometimes, but only if the openings and mounting style are compatible. Check before cutting or drilling a new body.
Do body kits include mounting hardware?
Some do and some do not. Review the included-parts list and plan to replace worn clips or rivets during installation.
Bottom line
For E-Z-GO body kits, model and year fitment come first. A complete TXT conversion can dramatically refresh an older cart, but the cleanest result comes from checking lights, hardware, windshield supports, and rear-seat accessories before the old body comes off.
