This innova look cool

,superb mod job

A wonderful job done on the swift.Anyone would get fooled looking at it from the front.Can't say the same for the rear though.

Mods to Innova etc are generally messed up, except for a few decent ones. This one definitely looks goood and finely executed. It shows skillmanship and taste by the owner.

Though I would never prefer to badge my ride with some other make, but then again it is each ones choice.

Swift looks good from the front but the rear should have had some work done as well

Very Innovative way of iducting a Merc into ones stable....it comes cheaper too.

hey!that armada or bolero, statndard & the maruti 800 old shape(84) has been built beautifully.these old machines look very agressive & has a different taste.

a very neat and tastefully execution of workmanship on that innova. down to every munute detail is taken care of while doing up that innova.

i saw the weblink for the various other vehicles modified, some are really really cool and some are not.

I don't think the body is fiber. It is painstakingly done by sheet metal fabricators. I saw them hammering away at the body panels last time I was there. They are skilled and do a remarkable job.

GTO, incidentally Kurien is a Jeep fan as well. He is currently putting a aluminum hard top on my mm540 and has a cool 540 of his own as well. Will post some pictures of his jeep when I am there next.

very neatly done indeed
would love to know how much moolah did the owner spend ?

artofzen · 23rd April 2009, 17:49

Although I am not a fan of some of his modigications, This is one of the best executions on an Innova that I have ever seen. One in black would be really cooler.

Excellent workmanship.

foby.sebastian · 23rd April 2009, 18:32

saw the same innova parked in front of the newely opened hotel named park residency or recidency (am not sure abt the name of hotel , lol i hate the memory power , but the bar inside it is awsome ) at 2 .30 am

I also used to see the same mini swift there

oops I think both the vehicles are owned by the owner of that hotel

@foby,

when did you happen to notice that(date). have not seen that innova there (although have seen that swift couple of times)

you are right, wild west (as it is called) is indeed a nice place.

Excellent job. Superb workmanship. Can TATA body shop learn a few things from him on panel gaps?

driving_smartly · 24th April 2009, 16:09

Really good work . It would be interesting to see this moded innova and a real R500 standing besides each other
