yeah. i gotta admit the back bumper.
first case, a fren knocked me fron behind (old saga), his metal bumper dented, paint came out, num plate broken. mine just shifted a lil causing a small gap between bumper and rear lamp. not fallen off. haha... second case, i reverse knocked a honda back bumper, the whole bumper dented like shit. mine just a lil scratch. still using the bumper now. no change.  no repaint too. haha... btw, any using KYB RS absorber for their iswara? if i use short stroke abs + stock spring. is it ok? because i heard stock spring is softer than those shorten type. pls enlighten me. thanks.

QUOTE(the_catacombs @ Feb 26 2006, 11:53 PM) buy from SM Mechanical in KL... then ask them ship over to malacca.... rm160 per piece, include shipping... (he quote me rm150 if take from KL) btw, wat's the full name of this kayaba RS again? got packaging? now the thing that i afraid is not stiff ride, it is the abs, like u said, too low. hope my bumper wont knock on bumps. u meet any of this problem? go to multi storey shopping complex parkings with slopes. short abs + stock springs = car lower abit... other wise, i dont think got problem la... ride might feel bit stiff, because all short stroke abs usually harder than OEM abs... if u use LMST spring + short stroke abs, can lower ur car about 2 finger plus.... coz LMST springs already 20mm shorter than iswara springs... better handling as well, but comfort sacrifice abit la... now i got problem with my kyb rs + kimex springs setup... car lower too much, now about 1.5 fingers... each time going over bumpy roads, tyres will scratch fenders... i think need to go workshop ketuk ketuk the fenders abit la... hopefully paint dont crack....  i wonder if my original 14" tyre and jrd rim will make the wheel knock the fender or not. any idea?  thanks. hehe... |

QUOTE(the_catacombs @ Mar 3 2006, 01:51 PM) it is called Kayaba RS... its a short stroke abs for sport springs... normal OEM springs still can use la, but will lower ur car a little... handling will improve but comfort sacrifice abit, coz harder than normal OEM abs mah (short stroke abs alwiz harder than normal length abs)... okies. thanks! heheh...see if i could find those abs here. gonna go hunting tomolo or so. =)i guess ur 14" rims wont knock anything... i'm using 15" rims, scratching fenders abit when going over bumpy roads.. btw, i'm pairing it with kimex lowered springs... if urs is stock OEM springs, no problem la... even with oem abs, car also a bit jumpy...maybe too light (98.7% proton quality). haha...not like honda city very smooth. |

yeah...might try to get the grill. lol...but if wanna remove the proton logo, we need to get new grill net. btw, the back spoiler is better now...not that fugly with tail gate thingy. and the aircon duct is also improved like those in kancils. hmmm...wonder if i could change to those. the currently design have dead corners and loose plastics.
oh yeah, bout the skirt. mine one side there's a gap in the middle cos the original double sided tape din stick on properly (bought like that). wonder how could fix that...cos it is a bit ugly. haha... |
