Introduction
Jimny is one of rare vehicles today which has both front and rear solid axles. It is one of the last Mohicans.
Therefore, it deserves some war paint.
The idea
Paint your front and rear differential housings in a striking color (yellow, red, green). It will make you smile more often when approaching your vehicle.
Painted differential housings can also be useful when someone with little experience is navigating you offroad over a difficult pass. Since the differential housings are the lowest point of the vehicle, you just tell them to "watch that [colored] ball".
Examples
The picture gallery below describes it the best:

- Suzuki Jimny - painted front diff housing - close-up - A01.jpg

- Suzuki Jimny - painted rear diff housing - close-up - A01.jpg

Kids on the street might think that a ball got stuck under the car.
