Great job going in there mate.

Matt black. There will be a bull bar with two huge hellas in front.

The edge of the bumper.

Hey Indra nice bumper man . Winch fits perfectly in it . GREAT . How much did it cost to fabricate that , what would be the approximate weight of it and what thickness sheet did you use?

indra_slk · 18th June 2010, 19:32

Fabrication cost me 6000RS. Have no idea about the weight. Here is the update for today. The lights are fitted. Tomorrow the winch will be connected, recaros will be in and the hella's will be all over.

Only problem is where does my no.plate go?

desideep · 18th June 2010, 20:12

NUmber plate can go on either side of the Winch on the bumper. and the car is looking good

It is obvious that "you" do not like the design

, but believe me it will be just fine once the whole thing is in place. The paint, the BIG Hellas, winch etc etc.

The focus will be on the whole persona & not just the bumper.

More pics pls once the lights come on... the number plate will be off center between the little white light & the chrome thingy, no problem there.

Cheers

In my opinion the bumper corners should merge with side fender arches. Even a separate attachment in the bumper corner with different color will do.

bumper looks familar

i need a side view of the bumper after the lights have been fitted , to give my opinion
Also use lightforce instead of hella if you plan for offroading as their lens is non breakable
contact me, ill put you forward to someone
also they look way better and different in my opinion,
get a cut off installed for your winch in the inside between the centre two air vents if possible.
if you plan to do serious offorading remove your traction bar if you havent yet
car is looking nice indra

Take of the maruthi sticker, stick the reg no,add thin black line on the top & bottom of the bonnet where reg no is sticked.the lines should meet black strips on the bonnet. stick maruthi emblum on the wind shield bottom.

what traction bar? allan what size are your tires?

I had planed to but the number plate near the maruti lettering but now i dont know if the hellas will block the view.

AslamHussain · 18th June 2010, 22:05

Why dont you also try changing the head lights to squared ones?

Zorro4X4 · 19th June 2010, 00:20

Please do not change the head lights to squared ones. That would make the Gypsy look sick.

AslamHussain · 19th June 2010, 13:43

@Indra, If you are doing up your gypsy the same way Xtreme Power has poted his pics as then I think the square lights would look great since the round hella's or light force on the bull bar will make the square headlights stand out. HID's would look great as well.

indra_slk · 20th June 2010, 19:04

The gypsy was ready for todays OTR. Was in the garage till 2 am on saturday. The bumper needs to be painted and I NEED RIMS!
