Finally i got my car back , i'm posting a few pictures of getting it back into shape again after the turtle turns.

The 1st 4 pictures are of the balancing and alignment being done for the alloys.

5th picture is of my Fav K&N

Rest of them are after i got the following fitted along with the costs

Sun film : Rs900 ( Including 50% film on the front screen )
Balancing and alignment : rs 400 ( along with the weights )
Black taping : Rs 400
Steering cover : Rs 300
Side Beading : Rs 400 ( sticker , no holes in the door )
ICE : reinstalled the same as it survived the crash . Wiring , antenaa and fitting etc : Rs 1200
Front Number plate : Rs 150 ( the rear one survived the turtle turns )
RVM's both sides : Rs 900 ( Zen type)

My K&N and FFE survived the crash ( Installed the same )

FFE is a little out of place though ( as can be seen in the pictures )

Might get the bumpers painted over this weekend and a ambipur to complete the look and feel.

Phew spent lot on insurance and other accessories.

Will post pictures of my ICE , interiors etc soon

I'm sorry i'm a little late in posting this however im interested in getting my bumper done in the same way. Can you please help/guide me to how your friend got it done.Few things that i need help on :

1) What is that mesh looking material?
2) How much did it cost?
3) Was it done by a professional ?
4) Do you know someone in Delhi who can do that for me?
5) Did the bumper become weak after doing that?

Please help

You can ask for NGK plugs in any MASS or surakshaa center. Tell them clearly that you want to install only these; else they change with MGA plugs.
Good to change after every 20k service. You will find the difference.

Thanks harishnayak, I finally settled on MGA mirrors from an authorised Maruti outlet. Cost me Rs.570 each. I was getting some internally adjustable mirrors for around the same price but their finishing was just terrible and I doubt the mechanism would have lasted long.

Can anybody suggest some good fog lamps I can install on my 2005 Alto?
I have the older bumper with no inserts for fog lamps.
