What Is the Machined Bolt Upgrade?

What Makes Standard Bolts Unique

In the standard setup, the exposed bolts serve not only a functional purpose—securing the upper portion of the hairline-finished panel—but also act as a subtle design cue that respects the original look of the Jimny’s instrument hood.

These bolts are made of stainless steel and sourced from industrial-grade stock typically used in specialized machinery. To prevent interference with the instrument unit itself, each one has been modified in-house by trimming the threaded ends.

Because they are practical components, their heads may feature minor scuffs or machining marks, which we have intentionally left untreated to preserve their industrial character. This gives the bolts a certain raw appeal—one that complements the utilitarian spirit of the vehicle.

Beauty in Every Detail

For those who seek not just function but refinement in every element, we offer the Machined Bolt Upgrade.
This option replaces the standard bolts with specially prepared versions whose heads have been precision-machined to remove about 1mm of material. The result is a smoother, more polished appearance that highlights the natural luster of stainless steel and creates a more harmonious finish with the surrounding panel.
The machining process is delicate and requires expert handling—so much so that even the craftsman assisting with this task commented, “This is a real perfectionist’s request… but I get it.”
