FTO AUSTRALIA

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:



And some quick pics at my favourite location.








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

Gotta have a good head unit and stuff for tunes:


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


And to finish off the sound:


And we all know my fascination with carbon fibre;



Nice rear spoiler:



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



Did someone say needs fog lights:


And better put some upgraded globes in those:


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




The hideous amber bulbs are removed from all clear lights:







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..



LED upgrade to the boot light


LED to the number plates



And throw in one of theese to complete the look:

Who's car?

I have to pay for it too..lol

Will you be moving the airbag module to the leather steering wheel?

My stock wheel comes with airbag as well.. So will just swap it over..

Very nice, jealous of being able to do all that so quickly :p
Should look good though
Any other plans for it?

Rims and body kit.. That is about it.. I think.. Lol

Spot lights fitted...




As well as rear spoiler and CF door handles... Forgot to take a pic of the handles... Oops

much better!

So that is almost up to date.. But reason I wanna sell my FTO is to finish the Evo/GSR off..
