Prolly. American Suzuki wants us to. We actually have at least 10 performance dressup items ready for that car.

I really just have to admit, its finally something if suzuki does, as like a tuner car, like the scion TC

, But seems like a great idea if suzuki takes the concept and turns it into production. Good work

Front window wings are fixed on the SX-4. So yes there are 2 a-pillars. That might be the confusing part.

I guess you could say I was the designer but everyone at RRM had imput on the project as did I. I made the final decisions on it. Most decisions I could live with others I would do over. In the end it was the client that was happy. It came out very much like I proposed it to Suzuki. Process issues always make for some last minute changes too. We deleted some things and added others that were no where near the original plan. It was a great experience and I suspect we will be building and designing more cars for OEs!
