The Dark Knight Rises: Can't wait to watch this movie :)
Hi guys, just want to share information with you all ...
Three year ago, in 2008, Christopher Nolan, the director of Batman Begins continued his film project called the Dark Knight. Before the movie was released, many people around the world already made some of the best teased trailers about the movie.
And now in 2011, so many leaked photos and videos about Bane: Gotham super criminal and Cat woman and the rumored Bat wing were shown in You Tube. In 2008, we were surprised by the 'Bat Pod' and now 'Bat Wing'? Awesome! I can't freaking wait to watch this movie :) The movie will be shown in July 2012 !

Swift R Conversion Kits
While I was updating my blogging tools, I clicked on the SCB website just to check any interesting news and updates. Then in the chatbox, there was a link to a website selling complete set of Swift bodykits.
I was very surprised and very happy that the swift R concept body kits can be imported to Brunei for a price around 1 500 by a local seller. Since, my brother is also looking for the complete set bumpers and planned to just custom made the bumper, I share with him of this good news.
Here are some of the pictures of the Suzuki Swift R bodykits:

Not really aggressive but beautiful and eye catching |
The LED strips can be fitted on the side like the Swift R |
The mid outlet is the placement for the exhaust like the Swift R |
Side view: Sportier and athletic |
Notice that different color tone on the front bumper? |
The Swift R concept has wide front fenders |
Very nice spoiler but I wonder where could be the screws that attached it? The downside of it. |
Very attractive looking diffuser! But there should be two mufflers rather than one heheh |

Initial recuperation
Slow motion |
In 2009 and in 2010, my swift suffered minor accidents which were caused by reckless drivers. Though feeling a bit upset of the damages incurred, my feeling gets better when told that no internal damages of the swift reported and only the front and side rear bumpers being spoiled. Luckily, the bumpers can be changed by ordering a new set of Swift Sport bumpers that I plan to buy end of this year 2011.
I did not take any pictures because the damages were obviously not really identifiable, only the clips of the rear skirts affected while the internal body structures were still in original. Back then, I had this phobia of telling my dad, though it’s not really my fault.
Being an undergraduate that still study at a local university, I was short of budgets most of the time and my only first modification was the black housing angle eyes projector headlights that cost around 400 at that time. However, the cost of the headlight now has reached about 500 at some local car accessories companies in Brunei.

I was in my third year at that time, when the swift officially being driven by myself. I was too happy and search the websites about the swift tuning accessories. And it is a beautiful and cute car indeed that has a potential in modification though the speed and horsepower are not that high like the mini cooper or the Volkswagen GTI. But in terms of beauty, the swift generally outwitted and outpaced the mini rivals. I am not biased but that is the fact especially when the swift is updated with wide 17 inch rims and body kits.
One more thing why I like to drive the swift is the fact that I can save more money because the fuel consumption’s rating is superb and the road tax is also good.
When I started working in August 2010, though still not being permanently stable, my plan to modify the swift came to my mind again. I started to save and my second modification of the swift is the 17 inch ultra light wheels from League. I was thinking of getting 18 inch but may be in the future when I get a much stable job. I also fitted the swift front bumper with a pair of LED daytime running lights (Merc Style). Just for the time being, because end of this year, I am planning to fit the LED on my new body kits.

Instead of fitting the LED like the typical Benz looks, I fitted the LED opposite way (L shape) |
Okay, that’s it from now, sorry for any spelling or vocabulary mistakes :p
I am not good in drawings, but did my best |
While heading to the exit way |
Where am I going? No idea at that time |

I really like that red devilish color, its glowing |
The road ahead is getting narrowrer |
Large sedan can't do this, you know what I mean |

Choosing the right wings
When I look at the rear side of my Suzuki Swift, I started to imagine how it looks like if fitted with a rear spoiler. I search many websites and even went to local shops searching for the right wings for my Swift.
There are so many types of spoilers of different designs and materials.
Joining the Swift Club Brunei, allows me to see many modification updates of the members. And I was fascinated by one of the member’s rear spoiler that he ordered from One1eight Motorsport: A local car accessories online shop.

An Intro
TM Square Body kit
August, 19, 2011- This is my 3rd blog which focus only on the unfinished project of my Suzuki Swift. In this blog, I will tell you guys the history of my Suzuki Swift, started in 2009 and the progress that has been made in terms of exterior, interior designs. In the future, I also plan to update my Suzuki Swift engine performance parts.
The Suzuki Swift is one of the best selling mini hatchbacks in Brunei. The affordable price, low fuel consumption, reliability as well as the good looks has become the magnetic force for younger drivers to buy the swift. In 2009, the Suzuki Swift was again redesigned and equipped with simple, refined exterior such as the revised side mirrors with LED signals. In 2011, though the exterior design of the all new Suzuki Swift lacks the alluring part like the previous generation, its interior has been equipped with more decent gadgets, comfortable seats and surprisingly roomy due to its wider redesigned body. Every part of the Swift’s cockpit is designed to make driving easy and enjoyable.
