Front end conversions aren’t a new thing at all. If anything, it’s been going on since the dawn of the automobile. It’s an amusing mod that, for the most part, draws mixed reactions. See: Mitsuoka.
Over in Indonesia, GH Style got its hands on a Suzuki S-Presso and gave it a nose job. The nose in question comes from a Suzuki Jimny, and, in our eyes at least, it actually works pretty well. Heck, it looks like a factory job, and Suzuki Indonesia even liked GH Style’s post on the car. You can’t get better approval than that.

While it’s easy to say that the shop simply tacked on the Jimny’s front end on the S-Presso, it doesn’t appear to be the case. To accommodate it, the tiny hatchback needed custom fenders for that boxy fascia. It then needed a different hood, just so everything would fall into place. Even the bumper needed to be fabricated to make the S-Presso look more like a Jimny.
To complement the macho makeover, GH Style gave the S-Presso a chunky set of fender flares, along with thicker body cladding on the sides. Meanwhile, the rear bumper gets a few tweaks for that off-roader look. The rest of the body is, well, standard S-Presso, but for some reason, it all gels in quite well. We do have to say that the chunky cladding and fenders give the illusion that it’s high off the ground.
As far as we can tell, there were no changes made to the interior. The same goes for the mechanical bits, namely, the engine. That means it likely still has the familiar 1.0-liter, three-cylinder mill that’s good for 67hp and 90Nm.
Here’s some good news, too: This conversion kit for the Suzuki S-Presso is actually for sale. You can contact the GH Style via WhatsApp through its Instagram page if you’re interested.
