even it is CKD - sKD to be appropriate most of the parts are still closely control by Korea.

things manufactured in Malaysia:
Tyre - no worries Malaysia's tyre best around the world.
Rims ? - maybe from JRD ? spec still require to meet KIA's requirement
Naza Cap - 100% from JRD

other than that most of the item would be from Korea.

For Malaysia to move further in for Korean cars or even others, I am prediction following parts to be manufactured in Malaysia:
1) Wiper
2) Seat
3) Side mirror
4) Floor mat
5) power window
6) Spring & absorber
7) wind screen and window

Our forte headlamp is made of plastic material...
Why not made of glass?
I remember my previous waja headlamp made of glass.

Totally brainless. I hope he gets what he deserves .

Glass have limitation in terms of design. Also, the weight is an issue.
Therefore, all cars' headlamp now are made of plastic - Polycarbonate to be exact.
It's more versatile & cost less in mass production compare to glass.

Bro where u stay huh? Tumpang tools boleh r? Ask some of the accessories guys they charge me rm 20 for 4 sides.

Wait to Sctrached - WTS. Actually alot of case edi.. my work place, this mazda 6 (purple colour) always take 1 1/2 of the parking space. Balance only kancil can fit. Heard the owner is one of the 'taikor' here.. so nobody dare to sound him.

Interested to know anyone read from V1 - V5, take how long to finish? 30min or 1 hr? kekeke

Yeah! I always leave my wife & child in car & go for tapao foods. Only my wife can open the door for me.

JB area. The tools cost me RM10... better than asking tyre shop or accessories shop do for us & charge high cost.
Another option is remove the rims ourselves before installing mudflaps which I think more troublesome,tougher,time consuming..etc

Successfully pasang the mudflap myself. Use around ten minutes for both front. Quite quick. The back one total half an hour for me to Jack it up, remove the rims pasang the mudflap, then put back rim. Harder part is to tighten the Nat below because somehow the hole quite small on the mudflap.
