Off-road preparation


I'll show you what's up :)
Pavel all weekend was in garage making some modifications to our car (I was an assistant). New off road season is coming so we have to be prepared :) The weather will be nice in few weeks so we will be going to frolic on the desert!
Modification that has been made: assembly of the front tow hooks and hitch at the back. The hitch receiver on the back is cleverly reworked to be the plate bracket holder as well. In the desert, we will remove the bracket and adjust hook - nice patent :)



Hooks on the front - we had to cut holes in the bumper :) Unfortunately cars sold here are EU versions, so the bumper does not have special places on it (U.S. one do). 




Homemade organizer was mounted in the trunk :)


Fire extinguisher has found its place next to the sand laders (special bars that help to dig out, etc.) and boards under the jacks - which we sew special bags for it.


Well, today we add SpiderTrax spacers - something which increases track width, which increased the possibilities of the car in the field.

after we gained 1.5 inches on each side :)


and it looks like this :) It is beautiful isn't it? 



Now I see that I forgot to write about sandblasting and pouder coating black the wheels.

to be continued :)
