The Indo-Japanese automotive giant, Toyota Kirloskar Motor, launched the Fortuner Legender back in January 2021, making it the most expensive variant in the lineup. The model boasted a completely new front fascia with slight changes to the rear and sides. Since its launch, it has gained immense popularity in the country. However, being the most expensive model, many people have also refrained from purchasing it. Recognizing this market gap, many people in the country have opted to take the aftermarket route, purchasing the imported Legender kit to revamp their type 3 Fortuners and make them resemble the top-spec variant. Recently, another conversion video of this type was shared on YouTube.
The video of the Fortuner type 3 being converted into the Legender was shared by Autorounders on their YouTube channel. The video begins with the owner of the shop introducing a particular Fortuner type 3 that has come to their shop in Pune. Autorounders currently has three shops located in Mumbai, Pune, and Hyderabad. The owner mentions that there is an interesting story behind this particular car. He explains that the owner of this Fortuner had previously taken it to another shop where work on the car had already begun.
He goes on to show the sanding marks on the car, indicating the previous work done by the other shop. The owner of Autorounders then states that the car’s owner inquired about the cost at their shop and, after comparing quotes from the two shops, decided to transfer his car from the previous shop to Autorounders. Subsequently, the owner of the shop showcases the car from the outside and mentions that a new aftermarket Legender kit will be installed in this SUV.
The presenter explains that the bumper, headlights, and grille will be changed at the front, while the taillights and rear bumper will be changed at the rear. He also mentions that apart from these changes, the car will receive a completely new pearl white paint job on the entire body. The presenter further states that they will be modifying the interior as well. Following this, the car is shown being disassembled and prepared for the paint job. Once the car is completed, the owner of the shop summarizes the work done by them.
Firstly, he showcases the front of the car, pointing out all the changes. Then, he moves on to the side and states that nothing has been changed in the side profile. Next, he shows the rear of the car and mentions that only the bumper and rear taillights have been changed. He adds that they have painted the rear insignia plate black to give it a sporty feel. Lastly, he focuses on the interior, explaining that they have completely transformed it with custom-built maroon leather seats for this car. He mentions that they have also replaced the gloss black accents in the car with carbon fiber to enhance the sporty theme.
