Hydswift welcome to Team-BHP.

Neat swift - think the alloys are stock Alloys of ZXi and powder coated / painted - they look nice and diffrent

Just a small idea in the rear u can debadge the Maruti Suzuki and ( varun Sticker ) and the VDI - retain the S Symbol and put the Sport badge on the right in place of VDI - looks neat .

hydswift : is there any modification to this.i mean not cosmetic.

hydswift · 22nd October 2009, 18:54

Hi, No modifications, they are all cosmetic

. Here are the cosmetic changes done to my car.

Painted the alloys with Ash Grey color
Painted the lower border of the car with black color
Added a black spoiler
Paint job for the tail lamps
A few assorted stickers

Nice job on the alloys- love the color and think would look great on the azure grey swift- how much did you pay and was it something that was done by MASS?

So are the brake pads painted or not ?

Those Wheels Look Nice. Dark Wheels look Damn nice on a White car. They should give those as a Stock option IMHO

Hi SamuraiJack, It was not done by MASS. This job was done by Xenex, Hyderbad. The paint job for 4 alloys, and brake pads costed me around 4K.

Random viewing of alloys got me to the following image. Can you help me with a brand / name of these. Real interested in getting them

Cheers,
Sam

Hi Sam,

These look like Plati to me in silver finish. Check out my garage for alloys on my swift. They are the same ones but in black and chrome. The dealer I bought my alloys from, had it in chrome too, identical to what you have in the pics

Hmmm from what I can see Hydswift u have smoked indicators and backlight, nice painted alloys , a stern black border, headlight eyelids, nice spoiler but whats with the red brake pad ? did you paint that also ? I dont quite understand the red part, it isnt limited to your brake pads . Can you clear me on this?

jithudigitised · 25th October 2009, 15:18

ya he painted his brake pads.look at the post 1762.

Fountainheader · 25th October 2009, 15:32

hydswift,
How much did you pay for the ZXi OEM alloys ? I'm planning to downsize to 14".

gunner fan,
Those alloys are AC Schnitzer replicas. I guess Lenso/HRS/Plati shd have them.

Well actually if you see the picture closely you can see that inside the alloys its red i mean apart from the brake pads. Can you tell me what is that and is that also painted ?

karankapoor · 25th October 2009, 23:13

Thats the brake drum and the outer area of the wheel, But i think painting the brakepads is a good idea not the drums as clinning them will be difficult.
