Turn your Suzuki Jimny into a mini G-Class or Defender

Suzuki Jimny DAMD bodykit

We rather like the new Suzuki Jimny. We suspect many of you out there also like the new Suzuki Jimny. For those of you that do, some news of interest: a Japanese tuning company is offering bodykits that transform the little J into something a little more… familiar.

Dream Automotive Design and Development – or DAMD – is the tuner in question. The little tuning shop that emerged in the 1980s is now offering Jimny owners the chance to make their diddy off-roaders look like ickle G-Classes and itty-bitty Defenders.

The G-Class is called the ‘little G’, transforming the face into something that resembles Merc’s fabled off-roader. We always joked about the Jimny being a baby G-Class. Now they’ve gone and done it. Look, side-exit exhaust pipes!

Fancy a small Defender? You’ll want the, ahem, ‘little D’. Here, the headlight surrounds mimic Land Rover’s venerable 4x4 offering, among other things. Have a glance at the pair of them in the gallery below.

So, which is it for you: a little G, little D, or standard? If it’s the latter, read our full review of the new Jimny here.
