QUOTE(ub3rg33k @ Mar 15 2010, 01:17 AM) ZeroSP, drgnkid, thanks for this informative discussion. I think all this helps a lot. You guys really know your car well. Feel like Initial D here with those chassis number flying around ;-D Kahwai85, you can get much earlier if you want Sparkle, less than a month, I was told. I didn't quite like the color though as it looks somewhat purplish rather than blue. Haven't seen Titanium in real life, but CR-V seems to look pretty good in it. My fav is still the White, but difficult to take care and it's solid color instead of metallic. Thats the thing. The arguments are; black is too common, low in demand. White is too hard to preserve. Pearl Grey looks like purple and Urban Titanium is not OTR yet. My uncle is a SA, so I asked him to give me whatever colour that comes first except silver. Screw me for being indecisive.

Seremban branch. What do you think of Sparkle Grey Pearl? Is it a little purplish? Now I think Black is the safest choice. Everyone fancies black, LOL.
Difference between crystal black and nighthawk black?

Kahwai, I think those people with solid color on nice cars should go for this Teflon coating. Looks really nice and can protect the paint job. http://www.shinenshield.com/I found this via this blog -> http://blog.saimatkong.com/index.php/2010/...int-protection/I think should be quite pricey la. Didn't inquire, but if someone here do (or did before), please let us know how much is it.

So its still affordable if it really does as advertised.  So still have to wait till May to get my car. Boo.

Nope.. For Civic the PPS system costs 500+... I got a better yet expensive alternatives, but it is far more secure than PPS, recommended by director of one of the Honda 3S center. The Operations Director even scratch his applied GTR with coins it just works...

Plus, wrapping car in plastic film just sounds like an awful idea.

Check out ThreeBondLooks Ultra Glass Coating Neo... It is RM1950 for Civic FD... While the PPS it is RM550 for Civic FD...
Ultra Glass Coating is nano glass layer that protect against dirt, prevent oxidation like PPS... And further anti-scratch... No need follow up treatment, no need wax... Just use plain water and voila... Showroom new as the director tested on his GTR to show me...
Should can find it by googling... I have the soft copy brochure either, pm me so I can send it by email.
So depends on needs and budget... Both are good choice... 3M tint is best choice, but the 3M scotch guard is terribly expensive.
And if buy by cash, can even get unconditional discount... Last December I helped my uncle through to get his Tafetta White Civic with unconditional discount and the car ready by 4 days.

Envy la  I still have to wait until next week. Anyway, it is good to have my car tinted by the Honda Service Center? I mean they settle everything up for me before I getting my car. I did survey about the price and their price is somehow reasonable. This post has been edited by Neo_Y: Mar 16 2010, 07:10 PM
