Thank you . I have been driving this for the past 2 years though in dreams . Lol !

Hey Max.. Thats a super deal for a fairly new car. good choice of car too.

Along with painting your alloys matt black I would also suggest trying to paint or sticker in chrome insides of the Rear lights. I personally cannot stand that chrome finish.

Darkened insides will surely look good. my 2 cents.

kphilip · 26th March 2008, 16:03

Congrats MAX, the car looks sxy, so when are u driving it around cochin for another small bhp meet??

mansidea · 26th March 2008, 16:59

Good find Max. Congratulations. Pls. post the post modification pics too.

Kottayam seems to be a good place to pic up cars.

Isnt that the same thing as smoking the lights up. I mean I do see a lot of cars with BLACK/smoked up covers of tail lamps which work decently when the bulbs are on.

Ignore my ignorance (in case I got that wrong)

Great buy Max! Love the Cedia. Have fun with your baby!
Btw, any mods planned apart from the tyres?

Yes thats smoking. Some people overdo it and make it black which looks plain ugly. You gotta apply the right amount of tint to make it look good and the person doing so should be experienced so that the tail lamp doesnt loose its water resistance or else it will start fogging up inside for every spray of water which can be very irritating and dangerous (SC)for the car.

Stiffer springs but again it all depends on the FM's budget allocation

I thought Cedia was the last car whose suspension would need to be modified!!! Do you find it too soft?

Its definitely leagues ahead of anycar in its price bracket and it has a good balance of ride and handling but I feel mondeo's setup to be better.

Amitoj , its not at all soft .

Run off to the nearest temple and get that nimbu-mirchi as soon as possible.

Max! You sure are a tease. Stop it now. Or I'm gonna drive down to Trissur now.

shuvd · 26th March 2008, 18:48
