QUOTE(sbanboy @ Jun 12 2011, 11:53 AM) Just called my SA .... heart = white ... brain = silver hey bro, good to hear that your car is coming!  Been seeing the whites on the road and they really stand out ... saw a couple of silvers ... but decided to go with my heart. So told my SA I will go for the white which I am confirm 100% will get instead of waiting for silver which is not sure yet. Thanks to the pictures posted here with the kits and input from you guys. Car will arrive in the port June 15th .. inspection ... etc .. so if all goes well can get the car by 18th.... really depends on the customs and the number that I wanted which will be arranged this coming Monday. Really looking forward to the car. Need to figure out how to maintain the white color hehe. The car gotta last me at least 10 years Do have a great day guys! when did you place your booking? |

I don't really mind any colour but blue as long as not blue, i can take black as well, but if i get that my parents will nag forever until i sell this car or repaint it... they have some phobia on black cars dunno y...  and since i cant decide whether to go for white or silver, just put both option and let fate decide... |

Hi Sifus..
I booked my Insight somewhere in May and the SA told me that I should be getting Insight sometime in Mid-Aug. Can any of sifus here tell me what i should be preparing to spend extra to get the car looks + feel better? I have been reading the forum from V1.. and these are the list of things I have read that people are adding/improving.. Have I missed anything else? 1) boot tray 2) door step garnish 3) reverse camera 4) carpet 5) super loud horn 6) tint 7) Body Kit 8) Boot Light 9) Foot Light 10) Sports Pedal 11) Door Visor Also I will be going to the US next month. Which of the above can I buy cheaper in US rather than getting here? Sorry i am not very good about cars so will appreciate all your help..  This post has been edited by jagz: Jun 13 2011, 11:19 AM |

love this rear view and the bodykit.
by the way, by any chance bro here have changed the rear plate panel as shown in this pic? I think it looks nicer on white, rather than the initial plate with the black board cover the whole plate number area.  |
