Structural Work

Prado J120 to J150 Facelift

Moving a Prado from the J120 generation to the J150 look is more structural than a simple panel swap — it means reworking the fascia, wheel arches, and body lines to carry the newer generation's proportions convincingly. Omar's Classic Garage handles this as a full-scope conversion: fascia and grille, headlight signature, arch and bumper realignment, and a respray that erases the seams. Confirmed active into 2026 with builds opening as early as January.

FAQ

Common questions

Is a facelift conversion legal in Kenya?

Yes. It's a cosmetic conversion of your own registered Prado J120 — your number plates and logbook details are unchanged throughout the build.

How long does the conversion take?

Typically several weeks, depending on parts availability and the scope you choose. We give you a firm timeline on WhatsApp after reviewing your vehicle.

Does it affect resale value?

A modernised look commands stronger buyer interest in the Kenyan market — most clients see it as a resale upgrade, not a risk.

Where do the parts come from?

We source genuine and OEM-spec conversion kits per build, matched to your chassis and fitment before work begins.

Can I see one in person before booking?

Yes — visit our Ruiru workshop on Thika Road to see completed and in-progress builds firsthand.
