Guys, hw's my new front look of my beloved Forte?

Hey guys....i did some readings between Simota(Blue) and K&N(Red) drop-in AF....Simota got way better rating, and K&N heard the quality drop....so, nid u all help me decide, between RM130(Blue) vs. RM280(Red).....I wan QUALITY and LESS MAINTENANCE(NOt no maintenance)....both oso hv same performance...

My Forte now look like BMW 5 series!!! if juz wif projector lamp

lol....thx, problem is white LED super bright is out of stock...so, i use red instead, i can't find orange either, that can connect to signal..left red and green...no choice lo...

taipan : the bright 1 is digi cam, others is hp cam...coz really, hw i took using digi cam....always nt clear...except with flash

this is 1st time i mod the outlook....plz guide me lo...

acually, i sat on my fren's dugong....feels not bad acually, pretty comfortable....compare with SITI...i rather get dugong over siti...but since Fiesta came into play...that 1 is more worth for bucks...i was refering to PURE B-SEGMENT cars....but in term of spare parts, i rather go for Dugong too...cheaper than those 2..

Acually, y u all say my 'RED DEVIL' looks ah beng?? lots of ppl really love it.....is it really dat nice?? and is it really looks ah beng??

oh...thx thx...
1st. here always raining...no matter hw i wash...later sure dirty...everyday here rain nowadays....
2nd. Number plate...i considering too...but i hv 2 wait for another 1-2 months...get 1 set of number plate cost RM1xx....always maintenance 1st..rite?
3rd. NAZA emblem....agree..i want 2...problem is, no stock at SC...and dun expect i get from other sources...i knw from u all can....but problem is i 100% support the SC...same do the boss, as he did his best to allow my club to go smoothly, and help me with recruiting members since before launching last year..buying from him is the least i can do....expensive(RM200 for rim caps n emblem)...but i will do it...

well, hope u understand my problems...

i dun think so....

i juz love the 2.4L Forte in europe/america...

in ur case...either go for 1.6EX(best in FC n performance) or 1.6SX(value for money)
i dun think 2.0 is gd at city drive compare with 1.6 in term of FC

Added on May 9, 2011, 10:11 ammy 1.6SX 4Spd go up 2 182km/h...no problems....but that's max spd for 1.6

Forte every parts(except tyres) from Korea...n assemble here, is it CBU??
Do u knw wat is the meaning of CBU and CKD?? Go check wikipedia la....i even dare not say my Forte is CBU unit...i still consider mine as CKD...but Izputra, Frostlance and Rauna's is really CBU....unless u get the 1st 2000 units inspira during it's launch...yes, is CBU...other than that, is a bad quality CKD unit....knock knock the dashboard and door sound oso knw d....
