TL;DR

What We Shipped

Chassis Unlimited, a maker of American-built, precision CNC truck bumpers and off-road accessories, was held back by a Magento store that was slow to load, hard to navigate, and expensive to maintain. Fyresite migrated them to Shopify Plus on a custom theme, built a Year/Make/Model fitment tool so shoppers could find parts that fit their exact truck, and reorganized a large product catalog around a full UI/UX overhaul. The new store loads 150% faster on GTMetrix, cut bounce rate by 30%, and drove 70% higher revenue.

Bumper Product Detail Pages

A custom PDP template pairs official and curated Instagram photography with product features, weight and dimensions, a matched cross-sell and cart-upsell modal (winch, lights, rear bumper), featured builds, a downloadable manual, military verification, and Prop 65 warnings.

03

Featured Builds System

A custom content type showcases real customer truck builds with galleries and navigation between builds, tying inspiration back to the matching products.

B2B and Dealer Pricing

Shopify Plus B2B carries dealer pricing and purchase orders, with a Flow that spins up a QuickBooks invoice whenever a PO comes in, cutting manual back-office work.
