Local outfit TuneD has announced the debut of its first range of aftermarket bodykits and exclusive packages designed specifically to fit three Proton models – the Saga, Preve and the Persona.
Aimed at providing new options for the local aftermarket enthusiast, the add-ons bring about a new look to the exterior, led by design changes to the front/rear bumpers and side skirting.
Like the TuneD Saga and TuneD Preve, three tailored packages are available for the Persona, and these are the Standard, Executive and Premium (coincidentally, the same trim level naming convention as seen on the regulation offering).
Equipment specification is identical to the two other TuneD cars at the Standard level, the Persona getting a bodykit (front/rear bumper and side skirts), LED DRLs, a shark fin antenna and four TuneD emblems. The Persona is also finished in the Fierce Red signature shade, and a blacked-out pillar treatment lends the car a ‘floating roof’ look.
The Executive package adds on partial leather upholstery all around, soft-touch door trim covers and a new inner boot cover. Also on, LED lighting for the headlamps (high/low beam and pilot) as well as rear garnish lights. Finally, the Premium package introduces 16-inch multi-spoke alloys and tyres.
Pricing of the TuneD packages start from RM5,000 for a Standard kit, and the company says that that Maybank credit card holders have the option of going with a zero-interest, easy-payment instalment scheme for their purchase. The TuneD packages for the Persona, along with that for the Saga and Preve, are now available for booking.
I didn’t think a tuning company could make an ugly car even uglier, but TuneD just proved me wrong.
Looks good
I got a strange suspicion that Proton commissioned all this and TuneD is not an independent company. All done in secret in the sad hope that Proton sales would be boosted.
Proton is a dying brand. Who on earth would spend R&D designs for a company that might not even exist in a few years time??
For example, say you make luxury handphone covers. Would you make for dying Nokia or would you make for Samsung and Huawei?
Work hard to own a car, any car will do Mr. You dont get pay much as Keyboard warrior
I got a strange suspicion that u dunno about automotive and dunno about cars in general other than it has 4 wheels and go vroom.
Stop assuming and tok out of ur rear hole.
Dun be lazy and do more research. Work harder and at least try backup what u said with facts.
I luv the styling. I hope TuneD can provide bodykits for older Proton car like Gen 2. Let’s sapot local tuning shop
From where you picked up all these? Sky?
Those who buy Proton are usually tight with money. How are they going to spend RM5k or more on a dumb kit?
Real bodoh. What Malaysians want is cheaper car prices and not body kits. Cost of living in Malaysia is so difficult with highest car prices in the world and super high petrol prices.
Nobody will buy this kit, albeit it is 3rd party. It shows, kebodohohan is not just Proton but also 3rd parties involved with Proton
Wrong dude. Not necessarily being the cheapest. Most of the clients still considering about the cheaper maintenance costs compare to those foreign brands, especially for easy found spare parts and most importantly, why should I pay more for bank interest as well as insurance premiums when the car performance and limitations of these P1 cars on par with other famous brands? RV? BMW,Mercedes, Volvo brand owners should have that thought first.
Agree. P1 is on par with BMW, Merc and Volvo. Pipu should sapot our local tuning too as our local tuning is on par with AC Schnitzer, AMG and Polestar
Rich n famous people dont nagging about Cost of living in Malaysia is so difficult with highest car prices in the world and super high petrol prices etc. You must be poor n loserrr people…
Macam Datsun jer.
I think the only colour that it might work okay is black – so that those riduculously small eyesore wheel-arches the car is saddled with don’t stand out as much.
How did they even manage to make it even uglier???
OEM looks much better
i tot retrofit LED head lamp is illegal. so if buyer getting summoned coz of the led, will tuneD compensate the buyer? if no jpj approval proof (like tinted, etc) i dont see any point of getting these super duper expensive make up for proton buyer, lol.
That is the ori headlamp la. The led drl is part of the front bumper ala old vios trd bodykit, plus many other people retrofit led drl i don’t see police or jpj kacau them leh?
Please read the article carefully. It did mention “Also on, LED lighting for the headlamps (high/low beam and pilot) as well as rear garnish lights.”
read carefully before bash other’s comment la. the kit INCLUDE led headlamp, not JUST led drl la bodo piang.
Who told u retrofit LED is illegal? Kunta kah? Only retrofit HID is illegal lah bai!
Styled by others, but bashers still bash P1…
From 5,000 ringgit ONLY !! That is very cheap. Oops, I forgot, the TUNING is ONLY 4 Looks. It does NOT make the car go any faster. Wonder why they call it TUNE? I better check my dictionary 1st what is the meaning tune. Hehehe.
Is tuning radio station will also make your radio go faster ? You really need learn the meaning of the word “tune”.
Give me 5,000 Ringgit & I will guarantee U your radio will IMPROVE for GOOD.
In fact I will throw in a pair of branded speakers so that U can listen to the IMPROVE clarity/power of the BASS & a Sub-woofer 2 boot.
Naming after an OX-Fart does not make U any smarter. Please show me how GOOD is your ENGLAND if U dare 2 reply 2 me.
what an ugly grill there
I think it’s nice what
yup now it looks good.
Agree. All Proton cars should be given this grill
Nice sportier look.
I can’t even..some people just have Ah Beng’s taste.
Haiya… Driven by Ah Bengs mah
Yup. P1 is always sporty
Zest??!!!…
Even chinaman will reject this type of “cosmetic $2 hooker”
TuneD design is not good. From preve, suprima s to iriz time already designing ahbeng look. Aiyoooo….
That suprima s and iriz was by another ahbeng tuner – SD Aeridynamics lah.
I like everything but the front
That’s it la fellas. Malaysian automobile design gone. No more hope. Not even a jedi can bring any hope.
One tuner shop dun represent an entire industry. Otherwise, EU, Amerika, Jepunis tuners wud have collapsed their car industry as well.
April fool on 5th May?
Another Scam la. Nothing stands out from the original design.
oh my goodness, whats with the grille and the silly floating roof???? OMG OMG OMG OMG!
Aduh aduh….and many bashed about Mimos’s designs.
adui adui adui……
Sorry to say that… not impressive at all… :(
Tuuunnne whaaaat…
What is it with beer bottle cap rims?
So bisinglah. U design ur own kit. No skill still want to bising other people design.
sorry tosay say, but Buy the oem looks bodykits on mudah.com from Rm 750 to950 looks much better….
Front looks like a Datsun Go
I’m own a new Persona and I don’t like front and rear exterior design of TuneD body kit. Interior of the kit I felt sporty and liked it… But why must cover up rear fog lamp which is useful while heavy rain and heavy fog.
I’m currently on the verge of either buying bezza or persona. How is persona? How long have you buy them? For now, the cons of persona that i see is the service centre, and the probability that it will have major problem like other p1 car
TuneD u making the car look more ugly than before…
Oem looks a lot better
Pls lah. Stop bashing the car. It looks decent
The car is decent. The bodykit… depends on own preference
Never against any marque that find ways to widen/improve CHOICES and BOTTOMLINE anyway I think TuneD did a good job.
5k for a few pieces of plastic and a little paint job. Very good value indeed.
