New Feature: Car Customization

“Cars” is a new section in players’ Lockers. Cars are built with three new types of Locker items: Car Bodies, Decals, and Wheels.

All players have the OEM Wheels from Rocket League in their Locker right now. Car Bodies, Decals, and Wheels grant no competitive advantage.
