TuneD bodykit for 2007-2016 Proton Persona – RM2.1k

TuneD bodykit for 2007-2016 Proton Persona – RM2.1k

The last time we heard from TuneD was when they teased a new styling pack for the Proton Saga FLX. Instead of launching that, the local tuning outfit went on to release a brand new styling pack for the previous-generation Proton Persona.

This kit comes with a wholly redesigned front and rear bumper, with the former sporting a long, diagonally-positioned LED daytime running lights in both edges of the bumper. The front grille is also new and takes on a black motif, highlighted by a thin strip of red with the TuneD badge.

On the side, it gets a skirting that extends into the lower extremities of the doors, giving it a more “flushed” look. The whole look is finished off by a brand new rear bumper with “air outlets” and an actual diffuser, complete with the company’s logo as well. The stock refractors however, seem unchanged.

Price-wise, the entire kit with paint (finished to match your car’s factory paint colour) is priced at RM3,320, but those who prefer to have it painted separately can choose to go with Option 2, which costs RM2,100. Do note that the wheels here aren’t part of the package, but more so for illustration purposes.

Liking how this styling kit looks? Be sure to check out the company’s other works, such as the Preve, latest Saga as well as the current Persona. What do you think? Comment below!

Comments

  • AI-generated Summary ✨

    Comments express mixed opinions on the TuneD bodykit for the Proton Persona, with some praising its clean and sporty design and others criticizing the high price of RM2.1k, which exceeds the car's value. Many feel the upgrade is more suited for owners of well-maintained older models who want a refreshed look, rather than new buyers or those with limited budget. Several commenters think the Persona is outdated and question the practicality and regulation compliance of the kit, while others see it as a cost-effective way for existing owners to enhance their car's appearance. Overall, there's consensus that the kit is a late but somewhat positive attempt to revitalize an aging model, though it may not appeal to everyone due to cost and design considerations.

      Rather nice TuneD bodykit. Maybe Proton should merge TuneD with their own R3 styling unit.

      Actually not so. There are still many of those cars running around and will definitely benefit owners who would want to give their older rides a new look

      New car means most probably higher monthly installments/commitment. Perhaps this would be good for those who are not keen to keep up with the latest models out there in the market and just want to update their rides a bit. No harm in keeping their current ride but to do up the looks a bit. It’s not junk though. Most of the people I know driving that model don’t have major complaints. Just normal wear and tear.

      I still daily drive my 9 year old persona (M-Line, Manual), runs perfectly fine, smooth engine, handling tip top and reasonable fuel economy. I don’t see myself selling my car just yet, even though I have fully paid for it.

        At least yours are persona. Mine, a savvy lite. Hahahahah. Sell also no use. Ask those salesman at perodua, they sedekah me 1.5k as trade in value.

        GG. Pakai je lah. It’s a proper car to drive and fun albeit slow(1.1 engine with good FC what ya expect?)

        why sell the car, pantat gatal wanna get fked by bank izit? Change when you really can afford lah.

        I will keep my savvy tho.

        And actually i think stock persona look better then this. Thankyou.

    Wow. Finally the Persona have the EUROPE look and feel that it was meant to have when Proton first launched them.

    Too bad lah Proton. Your styling team is outdated. Pls JV with this local TuneD pipu.

    kudos to TuneD!

    Agree with majority of the commentators. The Persona might be reaching its EOL soon. Why waste $$ on a bodykit right now?

    Probably the best thing to do is to sell the Persona platform to developing countries such as South Africa, South America, or smaller Commonwealth countries? Look at how Daihatsu Boon platform is being capitalised in Malaysia (Myvi).

    This is a textbook example of syiok sendiri business

    Who in their mind would want to spend 2-3k on accessories for an old persona? all it does is enhancing the ahbengness of the car

    might as well bring anak bini to cuti2 Langkawi with the money

    Good move on the part of the TuneD team in my honest view. It is still one of the more common (older) cars you can see on the roads. Perhaps those that cannot afford a brand new car can consider this as an alternative; upgrade the looks of their current ride.

    It can also perhaps help the second hand car market; one could buy the a second hand Persona and add these kits to make the older car look fresher and sportier.

      I agree with you. Those who have a lot more disposable income will not be able to see it from this perspective and instead recommend to use the money on a new car’s downpayment. Both have their benefits though. However, refreshing an older car that is well kept will save the owner lots instead of paying the high price for a new car. Well, a new car is, well just that, a new car with of course the mandatory safety features, fuel economy etc. It just depends on the amount of money the owner is comfortable spending every month on the car

    i think most of last gen persona owners have paid all their loans. so instead of buying new car it’s good for them to refresh their car looks with these bodykits.

      I don’t think the bodykit has anything to do with the rubber seals. It is just an external part and does not affect water proofing

  • Personally it looks great. Clean and yet sporty design. Perhaps the kit can play with contour lil bit to emphasis the lips.

    Next stage maybe new design of headlamp perhaps?
