Mr & Mrs Rock_it's SWIFT FZ

Post by rock_it »

Hi all..

Thought I would start a thread for the wife's car. Only had it a couple of weeks, and already got a few things done..

How we got it:

Image

And some quick pics at my favourite location.

Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

And now for the goodies already purchased.. So to go on tonight..

Gotta have a good head unit and stuff for tunes:
Image

And a sub that is there, but not? Let me introduce the Focal Slim all in 1 under seat sub:
Image

And to finish off the sound:
Image

And we all know my fascination with carbon fibre;
Image
Image

Nice rear spoiler:
Image
Image

Because we got the base model, we missed out on the leather steering wheel, and volume controls. Not any more:
Image
Image

Did someone say needs fog lights:
Image

And better put some upgraded globes in those:
Image

Now the small things in already:
Old vs New LED parkers
Image
Image
Image

The hideous amber bulbs are removed from all clear lights:
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

Upgrade of headlights. I actually didn't notice too much of a difference until I saw the same model swift (and same colour) at Bondi last night with stock yellow globes..

Image

LED upgrade to the boot light
Image

LED to the number plates
Image
Image

And throw in one of theese to complete the look:
Image
Image
I just had to add it ......
