They were all fitting perfectly and the lights were working just fine. After this, the car was taken to the paint booth and a coat of primer was applied on the car before painting the original paint. Once the primer had dried out, premium quality paint was sprayed on to to the panels. The front grille, front and rear bumper were all painted black separately. Once the black paint was applied, clear coat was applied on it.

The owner was going for an all-black theme, so the dual-tone alloy wheels on this SUV wre also finished in black. The finished product was looking extremely good. The colour opted for this Fortuner is called Attitude Black which is a shade that Toyota offers with Fortuner. However, Legender is only offered in white shade for Indian market. The SUV was looking like a Legender or a GR-SPort variant of Fortuner which cost over Rs 50 lakh in India now. The work done on this SUV looks extremely neat.
