sportivo facelift price tag??

[Sardinas]

does anybody know how much will it cost to have an sportivo facelift? im planning to do it on my XTO. sportivo looks w/ fogs. thnx

Mahal. What year XTO? Pre-XUV? You'll have to change the fenders, too... and I don't know where you can find that surplus.

I don't usually go for facelifts because for me it's a complete waste of money.

Bodywork, repainting, OEM lamps and grilles = $$$$

I'd rather invest the cash into improving performance which never goes out of style

just my :twocents:

In the end it is still the same car. . . Parang I find it amusing the way used car salesmen and advertisements say "Evo Look", "SIR Look", etc. Might I suggest using your money on something else.

Trying hard ang dating… better invest to other things such as good aftermarket shocks, imported tires and lastly high end audio…simple pero matindi. Paint detaliling lang very very low profile na dating. IMO

xto, diba ito pa yung with small rectangle lamps. kung ito nga... too much cost. I doubt it can be done like a walk in the park. kahit may sobrang pera ka pa.

yup, even XTO to XUV with crystal rectangular headlamp look will end up really a TH. I've seen one and only once, ang problema di siya nagpalit ng color kaya halata. same color kami (blue mica) eh wala namang lumabas na XUV na blue mica. another thing is once marunong ang tumingin sayang lahat ng nagastos mo.

^^^ i agree with XTO- among all the MULTITUDE of crosswind models that i like, the XTO stands out for me because of its simplicity.

the current Sportivo has too much perfume for the pig! please don't join the bandwagon! the DMax/Alterra started out simple- now add-ons are substantially coming in!

also, isuzu must act fast in coming up with the Crosswind replacement! malapit nang matapos ang lifecycle nya. IPC is now in desperate measures- kaya nga kung anu-ano ang nilalagay sa Crosswind!

For me, a well kept XTO restored to original condition would be much more of a head-tuurner than one gussied up to look like a Sportivo.

Ang arte ng mga bagong pa-utot nila... rice-boy lights, chrome this, chrome that... I still find our XTO pretty good looking compared to our later generation XUV, simply because it doesn't have so much borloloi attached to it. In fact, I'm thinking of removing the factory bullbars to give it more of a "clean" look.

Washover, get your lights detailed and cleaned, spring for a set of mags or just do a simple tint strip (hey, it's rainy season anyway) to give it that classic "retro" look.

im up to the idea of replacing my oem xto mags to oem trooper mags (02-05 tropper). ummm problem is if it will fit in my rig. i wish we have banawe suppliers here in cebu. ang hirap kasi d2 kasi pag wala ka talagang makita eh sa casa na punta mo. trooper mags was for sale on autoindustriya.com for 12k prob is 4pcs lang.

I've seen D-Max mags on the Crosswind, and they look great.... Trooper mags are a little curvier, so they should look even better.

4pcs... oh well... still okay... just match tire sizes (get a bigger tire for the spare) so you can use your stock spare and wait for a chance to buy another Trooper mag by the piece.

Di naman trunk mounted yung spare, right? So hindi obvious?

[TholitzReloaded]

You can really use DMAX mags on the crosswind?

Im currently upgrading my 05 Crosswind to look like 2010, so far I've replaced the headlamps with 2010 projectors and Retractable Side Mirrors.

I still need to replace the lower bumper (in progress), front grille, Chrome Trim for rear tail light, tire cover, and finally mags.. I wont upgrade the interior just the outside..
