My Maruti 800

decode · 30th June 2009, 02:51

Guys,
This is my Maruti 800. It is a late 1999 model. This car is equipped with "American Racing" alloys and "Michelin Tyres". I have this car in this condition for the past few years. This is company paint and the rest of the car is in "Stock" condition.

Amazing man!

One suggestion friend. Try changing the glass tints to brown, it will look killer

sushrutha · 30th June 2009, 11:10

Fantastic looking 800 . So well maintained.Please get rid of those tints

kannan666 · 30th June 2009, 13:28

Great looking car decode, it dosent look 10 years old at all !

sanjayatarizona · 30th June 2009, 14:14

Superbly Maintained car dude. As suggested by shreyasma,the regular dark tinits would look killer. Any mods in place / planned?

Thanks So Much,Shreyasma,Sushrutha, Kannan and Sanjay. I got your point. I had black films earlier(I will try to post those pics too), I had changed them to good reflective Silver few months back. It serves me well in the hot sunny days and night vison from inside the car is clear and light. Now since it's post summer season, I can think about changing it to black now

Hi Sanjay,
Nope buddy. No modifications planned. I had plans for a FFE,but again its just a 800. I have a bigger car which is slightly modded. I have to accept this car the way it is

. I use this car in place of my bike ;P

dude. didnt i tell you the black one's were looking great on this car

decode · 1st July 2009, 17:55

Tazzy,You are the same guy who saw the car and told me that the silver matches the alloys.

. I am getting mix comments. Let' s see.. Thanks Anyway

prince_pervez · 1st July 2009, 18:07

This car is posted in the Show off Alloy wheels thread as well. Anyway looks good here too

. I said it there and will say it here, change the tints mate. We have a M800 too in our garage, 1996 model, done around 27K kms. Can you tell me where to get those wheels from ? And yes, the cost too. Also, are those 13 inchers ?

Nice and well maintained car decode.
I too own an 800 5speed (2003), Have added few accessories in it.
Will put up its pics soon.

How much did these alloy wheels cost you? What make & specification? Curious to know as i'm planning for an upgrade from the stock ones.

I think its applicable only for 13 cities & M800 should be available on all other cities. So nothing to worry.

Excellent maintained car. Few suggestions:
1. Change headlights to the one in the latest model.
2. DIY: Paint the front grille (only net) in Chrome/Silver. Check about BOSNY Spray paints (Abt Rs 275 a can). But keep the the border black. (I'll post pic of one such car in my socity compund, if you insist)
3. Use matt black sticker tape & cover the area below side mouldings on the doors. So that you have all round black bottom side (In line with bumpers. easy try out is use ordinary craft paper to have an idea of the new look & then if you like the look, go for the tape)
