Guys.. Question..

Anybody know where I can mod my rear tail lamps for Forte?

Good workmanship in relation to price (reasonableness).

I am looking for Superlux but a lot of places told me that these are out of stock =s (especially the Superlux Black bezel).

I have also asked Yip Auto / Korean Auto Accessories (Nick) if they have other type of rear lamps.

But their reply is crazy slow.

I wanna go mod my Forte this sat and give it an "identity" when I get my car sometime this week from Mr. Loh.

Any recommendations from fellow drivers here? (=

(any other auto accessories shop recommended in KL/Sunway/PJ area)

Any other type of rear tail lamp mods besides Superlux?

Of course can share. It is in Bukit Tinggi. Look for Ho Ho steamboat in Bukit Tinggi. It is in that area with the Hancook signboard. But as jes has mentioned, I have not gone into the details of everything. I even forgot to ask if they free allignment and balancing for me. I am just keeping this as KIV. Might change, might not change. Still in the struggle to justify this mod.

I have also asked:-

Michelin PS3 - 460 each
Michelin PLC - 430 each
GY Assymetry F1 - 460 each (German made????)

Thanks. Still wondering if getting Forte is the right choice. Tested the 1.6 model, feel a bit sluggish to move from stagnant. For sure it's going to impact hard on the fuel consumption.

I have been driving a 2.0 for almost 2 months. Never regretted buying it. I am a bloody kiasi fellow so I have read through all the threads in reverse manner from thread V16 that time. I decided to place booking after I have finished V10 and some of the S'pore threads, international reviews, discussing with open minded friends. I did those and I know what to expect out of the car. You should do that too, because if you are expecting a BMW build, you will bound for disappointment.

My comments on the car:-

Good

1) Very very fun to drive especially with the paddle shift (2.0 do not need to change to triptronic mode to downshift)
2) Lots of practical gadgets to play with (love the bluetooth connectivity, MDPS, chromatic rear view mirror, rear view camera). Don't know how to drive without them now
3) Safety (TC saved me once conciously)
4) Fuel consumption for me is currently 12km/l - 12.5km/l using RON95. 80% H, 20% C, with highway vroom vroom at constant 110 - 130km/h, daily 20 minutes light jam in total before and after work
5) Do not know why but the car boosted my ego (not sure if this is good)
6) Stable handling at high speed (maybe it is because the car is heavy)
7) Quiet cabin (barely hear engine noise from cabin at stagnant)
8) Cannot stop looking at it when I am at home and cannot wait to drive her back during off work
9) Lots of hidden features (not published) which might save you in some of the times

Bad

1) If I were to do step by step car upgrade the next time (to D segment), I am not sure if any other brand car can give me the same gadgets, driving assistance and safety without poking a hole in my wallet
2) SpeedNavi GPS is not that great but can make it to PAPAGO
3) No auto up side window
4) Bloody noisy, hard tyre
5) Car tend to flex too much to my liking, affected the my braking style, but I fixed it with foaming
6) Rear absorber too soft to my liking but considering my parents and my future boss (my kids) sitting at the back, better dont touch it. Else can be fixed with the spring cushion at rm 38 (plug and play)

There are a few mild mods that I will want to do (filter and plugs). All plug and play which most of the forumer here claimed that it gave possitive effect. If you need more push, go read our first page. It has all the reason for you to buy a Forte. At that price, maybe more expensive, you buy ToyVi & HonCi & Maz2 & NisAl. Those supposed to be good car (not to say problem free), but they are too honest. All of them are B segment with smaller internal cabin size, kosong car. I am glad I did not choose any of that. All and all, I will be having kids soon and I just want a safe car to drive in. Sh*t happens on the road and there is a reason why they call it accident.

Lastly, your money, your car, your choice.

Aiyak...kena pegang tim  

Means??? Bumpy ride???

Ah...I was there for chasis foam too. Under the seats' road noise reduced, but boot very noisy now. Vibration wise, car became bumpier cz less flex. Handling definitely better. Cornering better, braking better. Yellow line less obvious but if go through the big yellow line from Kelana Jaya to Canon bridge, ass still pain. Will go do boot treatment next.

I did only the undercarriage centre and rear. Front don't want to do because if accident, impact will transfer to driver. That is also the reason why Forte's front has 2 layer, for impact absorbtion.

Did not do the door sill as I already feel that my car is already bumpy. Doing the door sill will further reduce the flex. Might be too hard for me. If this is plug and play ok la. This one once in is permenant. Cannot reverse. So I do not think I will want to do door sill.

anyone here driving EX version of the 6-speeder?..the exhaust tip looked so damn ugly with the bodykit...my gf baru noticed that ugly pipe and ask me to change it(which i memang wanted to change it since day one)..XD..

my question is, changing it will void warranty? and which kind can give those vroom vroom sound?..XD kinda noob here....

Hi Sifu's.. Its time for me to renew my 1st year roadtax.. Can anyone share with me the price including windscreen coverage.. any good and reasonable insurance out there?

And how much will it be if i want to add natural disaster coverage as well..

Thank u in advance

Thanks bro.. Mind share what insurance..

Might also be the new engine oil. New oil is thicker hence heavier feel. At least I feel that way la. After you are used to it for 2 days, you will forget how it was. Heavier but you can feel the engine accelerate smoother.

For smoother acceleration, try BHP. But I feel that BHP is not giving the instant power like Petron. Heck. No Petron, no Petronas. I rather go to Shell.p

I contacted the VG person in charge. Antenna USD 69 paint included. Shipping is 28. Total USD 97. Did you kena any tax before this?

Also who want to do group buy? More than 5 cheaper.
