Mr & Mrs Rock_it's SWIFT FZ
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:
