Your Alto is looking nice after removal of those wheel caps. IMO get the wheels blackened and get some decent looking wheel caps which would add to the visual appeal of your ride.

@ Marun, Good to know that you liked the stickers [:)]

@Akash, Thanks for your suggestion. Am planning to go for alloys in the near future. So just sticking on as of now!

@ cooldhaya, Thnx to this forum and especially to you for encouraging me to go for alloys. It has enhanced the looks to great extent [thumbsup]

Ya i agree that the design is bit common. Since i decided to stick on to 12 inch alloy, design options were less. And amongst the available lot, I liked this. Alloys are Plati make and costed @ Rs 2.5 k per piece..

Yes alloys enhance the looks of the car to a great extent! So any other mods planned? Spoiler , LED'S , HID'S etc etc?

As of now nothing on my mind. Next plan is to refresh the interiors with new set of seat covers etc and then change to good set of tyres.

Re: Alto LXi: 2.5 Years Ownership Report

Your car is very affectionately maintained which clearly shows in these pictures. New set of alloy wheels looks fantastic as well. Keep the body clean and bumpers polished and it will always be a looker (as it can be seen in earlier pictures). Just one suggestion I have – remove those uncalled stickers on front and rear windscreens. But yes, this is the first time I'm liking a sticker on the hood. Perhaps the position is good that is why it looks sporty.

Drive Safe,
350Z
