Your mesh looks good too man! Here's a picture of the ride with No. plates installed at the side, I couldn't keep it for long after the traffic cop saw it. How I wish I could ride around like this.

The car had reached 40 k in the Odo and it was begging for new set of shoes after all the modification that had been put into it. I wanted something in bronze but couldn't find the right design in it had settled with Lenso PD8 but didn't like it when I saw it in flesh and Lenso has very limited designs in 14. My hunt for alloys finally, ended when I visited Sai mag wheels in Delhi they just have an awesome collection of Alloys at display, I finally and happily settled with these HRS H333 matt black wheels.
The tyres were also upsized to Apollo Acelere 185/60 R14. I wanted to go with Yokohama ES100 they just look absolutely gorgeous with there sporty treads but since these were performance tyres it meant that sidewall would be soft and place I drive my ride is mostly in Gangtok a hill station which has lot of really bad roads and we can hardly hit speeds above 100 Kph here, and had also heard upsizing effects the ride quality so wanted to go with comfort oriented tires so Yokos were ruled out. Read good reviews of Apollo Acelere tyres so went with them, they really seem to be the Jack of all trades.
I'm just happy with the overall upgrade of the alloys and tires the upsizing has really transformed the ride in terms of handling and performance, and I don't feel so much of a difference in Ride quality after upsizing.
Finally, the break calipers and alloys lip were painted to Golden and NRG Racing nut lugs were installed. I"ll let the pictures do the Justice now.

Thanks Himalayan. The calipers were painted with paint and clear coat was also applied. The Sparco pedals were bought at INR 2000 at bangalore. Had seen these pedals at ebay.in few days back, you can check it out if you wanna get it for yourself.

I can make an Square shaped No. plate from other sources but the thing is I won't be able to put it up in my ride, the traffic cops won't let me ride with it.

Hi zEphYr,
Certainly a very good looking I10. I see the dash color has been changed to black in some pictures of your ride. Is it a leather wrap? more over is it a DIY. I too wanna change the dash color of my I10. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Yousuf

 

[aytiuda]

Really? The cops wont allow even if it is IND embossed? I didn't know that..I thought as the square plates are IND embossed, its allowed..

Cool Mod..Keep up the good work

The dash was a DIY project, I had to do it because of the i10 dash being beige in color used to reflect a lot. I used black spray paint to paint it, just cover the inside of the windshield and sides with newspaper and the you're good to go.

Gangtok being a small town where you have to pass through traffic cops a lot won't allow such No. plates. I did have a chat with RTO but he didn't allow me as well, kinda helpless

Cool Mod..Keep up the good work

Thanks man!

HI zEphYr
What about a leather wrap on the dash. What do you think about the looks.
And which steering wheel hub/Boss kit you have used to mount the new steering and cost??.
Is it easy to remove the stock Steering. Can you plz explain briefly how to do so.
Regards,
Yousuf

who said I10 is not a mod friendly car, your pictures almost changed perception of people. Great going there any future plans of Ice upgrade.
