Im Nox and brand new Suzuki Jimny owner. I previously drove a Jeep KJ. Traded her in for the Jimny
Anyway im here to learn more about this awesome little vehicle. It sure does put a grin on my face.
I plan to, as the years go by, do some mods etc on it. As its brand new there will obviously be some limitations on what i can do at first but ill get there. Over here in South Africa there are quite a few Suzuki approved stuff you can do, that does not affect warranty.
My first mods is a mostly cosmetic though.
window tint.
I plan to do a bonnet guard, towbar and headlight protectors next. That is all mods that i think can stay when i decide to do bumpers, lifts etc.
I also got a roofrack for loading sandboards, kayak etc.
She will be doing day trips, camping, dunes, trails and work and back.
Here she is

The cup protectors are OEM and the transfer case protector plate is custom made for my Suzuki dealer here.

Mud and Quarry
Dunes
The Grey one is a mate of mines awesome looking Jimny.
I tried hard enough and got proper stuck.
I'm going to forego the spacer lift and 205/75 All terrains now and go for a full EFS Suspension upgrade, 50mm, Castor correction bushes, and an EFS steering damper.
Also going with the Maxxis Bravo MT -753 Mud Terrain tyres in 215/75/15.
