Go myself this today...hope can get it install before CNY (dun want undercarriage further KOTOR) wub.gif

Prefer the stainless steel version (tougher) vs the plastic one....best thing i bought direct from supplier at very very good price (vs plastic one)...screw all included

If i think you guys group buy can get little discount

Mean that is one NEW and OLD paint la...well gloss level cannot pick but need to see cement mark and paintwork...wanna see after CNY la.

new and old paint of course got difference in look.. what I am saying is colour is still the same..
no uneven or wavy surface caused by cement.. looks like a new door and front fender to me..
they will make good everything on the spot and make it look like new for the whole affected part..

that ketuk shop I went has a 36 years old legendary ketuk-ing and spray skills la..
that's why I always used to go back there whenever kena hantam accident..

Even Bentley and some Ferraris / Audi TT / R8 went there for body work repair and new custom cosmetic paint..

What is the problem? Sell when the rubbish tyre still have trade in value. Keep the rubbish tyre just give you problem. Noisy and uncomfortable. Straight change it to good tyre will not loss big money. You can go around and ask the SA and SC what is their advice.... Change Tyre... Not only me think about that.

RM150 for brand new still possible i think. anything above i think quite impossible ady cause brand new Silverstone M5 17" is only RM240 while atlantis V7 is RM270.

To be frank, alot of ppl really dunno how to drive a AUTOMATIC transmission car....all this while i were driving a manual car, this will be my FIRST auto car and you MUST know the TECHNIQUE of controlling throttle...not just about 'MAINTAINING' at certain RPM etc....you need to play around with your throttle...and AUTO car is NOT meant for HIGH REV..but with pedal shift, alot ppl like to DRAG their gearbox.... rclxub.gif

yes my PS3 although performance oriented tires still gives 50% significant more comfort and 100% more grip stops reassuringly when jam brake with confidence. Also solid ride feeling feedback on any road irregularities.. unlike stock tires felt nipis2 feel like Kelisa or Myvi.. sometimes all the seperated parts like tires and rims and body paint cars manufacturers are trying to cut cost. If anyone have Corolla Altis and Innova at home, u will know that the factory paint from Thailand is sucks. I have experience with Toyota SC most customers complain their factory low quality paint. Very very normal paint which the gloss layer is so thin. Accident abit the body haven't dented the paint tertanggal peeled off edi. Luckily my Vios was ok (Made In Malaysia).. Forte also has strong body steel. Uncle knocked my Forte so hard and dragged it so far also won't kemek alot and the ori paint still there..

Anyway, those are just bonus tip for those who unaware how substandard quality and performance of stock tires. This is what we call sharing our thoughts in forum. If everyone tends to be quiet then new Forte owner in Forte LYN wouldn't find much sharing and advice which is good to go.

Mine was trade in for 150/pc after 1000km service.
So I guess brand new maybe can get slightly more, just slightly hehe.
