5 modifications installed on my Thar before its first service

I didn't want to go for the Wrangler grille, hence modified the OE grille itself.

BHPian josetom89 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

80 km/hr is the ideal speed for the Thar. For me, the main deterrent is the wind noise which is excessive post 80 km/hr.

Did a few mods on my Red guy. This is the first time I have fiddled with a car prior to the first service. I got that confidence predominantly due to the infinite number of modded thars I see every day.

Works were done at AJ Alterpit, Kottayam. They are an official dealer of Bimbra products. Mods are as follows.

  1. Stedi homage headlamps. Got my uncle to carry it from Australia. Cost. Approx 23k
  2. Dechromed all the badges using 3M wrap cost 4.5k
  3. Alloys painted Matt Black cost 10k
  4. It was AJ's idea to modify the OE grille slightly to enhance the aesthetic. He claims to be the inventor of that Mod. They removed the horizontal bars behind the vertical ones and installed a thicker, denser mesh behind the verticals. Looked good for me as I really didn't want to go for Wrangler grille. Cost 4.5k
  5. Installed some other basic stuff like Proman handlebars, steering wheel cover, Under body coating etc.

To sum up, the works were near and professional. The Thar is truly a looker now.
