And for the white wheels, it was just a stop gap arrangement and it is long gone now. Now I have fitted black rims with red lip. I can post the picture if anyone is interested.

yes do post the updated pic..

This are the recent photos of my baleno. The interior picture taken at night is a recent version in which you can find the gear knob with engine start and also the bluetooth kit on the dash.

Love the pearl yellow paint job on the Baleno, Schugun.
Where did you get this paint job done?

rjstyles69 · 24th November 2009, 09:32

schugun you definitely have a wonderful baleno. One of the best looking baleno's I have seen offlate. Where did you get the paint job done from ? I think this would be the only baleno on this forum with a pearl yellow paint job.
the body kit also looks subtle and I dont think there are any panel gaps at all. Whats under the hood ?

The baleno looks SWEET!!! Really liked the Paintjob with Black wheels. The best Modded Baleno I have seen!!

Dude I really think its time for you to upgrade to leather seat covers or atleast art leather. It will enhance the interiors and will definitely give you a feel good factor.

Thanks for the comment nitrous.

One of my racing friend Naren (chennai) did the paint job for me and he did an excellent job.

It has been really difficult to maintain the finish for the past 2 years, I even repainted the left upper front and rear doors as some jerks put deep scratches all over with a sharp object when I parked the car in T-Nagar.

Thanks for your comments rjstyles69. One of my racing friend Naren-chennai did it.

I have not done much under the hood yet. I have fitted K&N filter with typhoon air intake and it is really good. I am planning to give the car to my racing team (RAMS racing) for some power modifications and also add a tuning box. I am also contemplating to replace the stock engine with fully done-up baleno race engine.

0nubhav, you would be surprised if i tell you that I have spent over Rs. 3 lacs for the modifications alone to my baleno till now. I have already thought about the leather (stanley), just waiting for the right time (cash availability).

My immediate priority is to add some power modifications / tuning box followed by projector lights/angel eyes. Will keep this thread posted about the developments.

This has to be one of the best paint jobs I have ever seen. Does this car run in Chennai? So do you take the steering wheel with you when you go home?

amith.2974 · 29th November 2009, 00:10

Killer paint job my friend, love the yellow and black combination.

Cyrus43 · 29th November 2009, 03:35

What disc thingie is that..behind the rear wheels?

IndrojitSircar · 29th November 2009, 03:39

rg_chn · 29th November 2009, 04:13

Thanks for the comment Gilead. Yes ofcourse it runs in Chennai. Haha, yes I do take the steering wheel out when I park the car at night (Just like Mr. Bean :-) )
