Clear lens headlamp unit + Spolier (aftermarket) + Plati Alloys (Tyre Upgrade) + Pete Box
12,500 + 4,500 + 14,000 + 19,000 respectively, and that equals to 50,000

Pete Box is only for diesel vehicles, I think yours is a petrol swift.

Also, Swift Pete Box will not cost less than 29K for anybody living outside Kerala.

Petes (sticker) can be found on Skoda VRs (this month's TG magazine has an aricle on Petes'). I too wondered. Is Petes for Petrol also? or is there a VRS diesel?

thanks mobike, I will think twice before posting anything more stupid than this, well I will have 19K leftout so thinking what to do with that.

rider60 · 17th June 2008, 22:15

well if i was the lucky one then,

i would get the best possible suspension for my accent viva CRDi at that price, and if left with any money i would spend it on the labor to get it fixed.

there goes the 50GRAND.

I know it exceeding 50K,the rest i can spend on my own.

Imagine turboing an Alto

oldshivabull · 22nd June 2009, 21:39

Guys,
I have a 2004 Maruti 800 that's done 50grand and more. And I have no tech knowledge

(the only comforting fact is that since I signed on to T-BHP 3 mths ago, I have been reading everything I can, though the Punto has taken up all my time recently). So, what mods should I go for? And where can I get those done?

OT, I'd really like to know more about cars. So where can I read up?

e1t1bet · 22nd June 2009, 23:11

What kind of mods are you looking for? ie. Performance/ride/handling/aesthetics/.. ?
First decide on that. Then just hunt around, you should find plenty of advice.
