QUOTE(ShaLong @ Apr 7 2010, 10:30 AM) the wheel cap logo.. is a real metal cap or juz sticker?? for naza one yes it's just a sticker. my SA told me is was juz a sticker  for after market wheel caps, all sorts of designs available, some pure sticker, some are just ABS cover sticked on to a cap. there's one type whole cap moulded with logos n painted. hope can find this type... tahan lama  but in short they are just a piece of plastic, no metal at all. |

Last month, I deserted Forte 2.0 after 3 and half months waiting and cancelled my booking. good to hear that... welcome back bro » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « After much sensible thinking overnight, phoned my ex- SA just now and said ... " I still want her". The next booker will just have to wait for his white 2.0 next month.  |

QUOTE(kia4te @ Apr 9 2010, 06:55 PM) Good suggestion. Perhaps Naza can come out with warranty package for us. they have the EWP for other models... i think it;s time they offer this to forte owners... tat way sure more ppl will be attracted to buy this car.but then again, without EWP also the car is already popular  |

QUOTE(Zelmel @ Apr 15 2010, 01:59 PM) Another way is if you own any car previously try to compare when both full tank. Like me, I am using kancil 660cc previously, same amount of fuel give me same amount of km. So I am sure forte FC is superb. Why I use this method, because your driving style is different from other. But comparing two different car you drive before, it is fairer. Mine 1.6 use around 10-11 my kelisa FC around 17-18km/l but with forte i hardly reach 11km/l... Mostly city driving. Same driving when I drove my kancil.  it's manual drive anyway... This post has been edited by yhlee12: Apr 15 2010, 02:07 PM |

QUOTE(KLHC1964 @ Apr 27 2010, 04:55 PM) thanks yhlee12 - maybe you can upload photos - how did you manage to pay the seller over there - if your installation is OK, dont mind paying you a service fee to order on my behalf bro, there r ppl doing importing business from certain websites in china... i just paid tat fella n get his partner to buy the stuff from china n ship back to malaysia, then i go collect. tat's all back to the mud flap. the front ones got 2 holes only. the back ones got 3. 2 for the sides, 1 for the bottom screw. photos coming up later, cause i'm not having the data cable with me. i guess the mud flaps can fit the car... just need to find some time to do it. today raining. lagi potong. the whole area is so dirt dirty. just washed car 2 days ago  n guess wat, i got myself a new set of wheel caps... the silver ones. cause black one dropped one  each cap is RM8 |

mud flap (sprayed with car color)  top one for front, bottom one for rear  another view. front one only 2 holes. rear one got 3. still haven't fix so dunno how fitting it is. wheel cap  ordered 5, 1 a bit damaged, luckily other 4 still ok.  back view of one of the caps. fits nicely but the surface is not flush so cannot suck out next time, must remove whole wheel poke out from inside i guess.  china one compared to korean mobis one. personally i love the mobis design (darn expensive, from ebay), but u can see from the one on top, the black plastic is just sticked on the cap using double sided tape. mine one of them dropped off so no choice need to use china one (cheap ma). at least this one the whole cap is in one piece, no sticking whatsoever. |

QUOTE(Beatmasta @ Apr 28 2010, 03:17 PM) We do not consistently check their tire pressure, which is the leading cause of premature tire failure. Why should I consider filling my tires with Nitrogen should u ask. well Nitrogen gas is slower than air to leak from tires because of the larger size molecule. i filled up mine with nitrogen almost 2 months ago... still another week to go and it'll be 2 months.» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « haven't go back to check tyre pressure |

finally... managed to fix my mud flaps b4 mega TT. RM 10 for brother's staff to install for me cause i really dun hav the short screw drivers to reach those narrow areas
 this is the rear one.  this is the front one. there's a little gap as circled in yellow.  mud flaps on the left.  mud flaps on the right. overall, satisfied with the quality. after all it's just mud flaps. not some high tech gadgets |
