[QUOTE="thule, post: 549670, member: 14511"] After a few weeks (or maybe a month?)... I finally got my car to the condition that I wanted. I wasn't satisfied with the initial result as there were too many things to be done! I won't touch on the teeny weeny stuff but focus on the more visible result :4: 1) I have since taken out my aFe air intake and replaced back my stock air intake system PLUS K&N Drop-in Filter - better compared to the stock filter as the acceleration is improved, although not as good as when the aFe intake was there (HM complains too loud... sigh!) On other note, I am planning to sell off this aFe at jaw dropping price (PM me if you are interested ok?) 2) GoodRidge stainless steel brake hose - OEM supplier for Brembo :top: I have replaced my stock rubber brake hose with this one for about RM600 or so... lifetime warranty! 3) Spray paint my power window panel as well as steering panel (where the rubber lining started to peel off after a while) [IMG]http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo147/leoboonloong/White%20Angel/IMG_6280.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo147/leoboonloong/White%20Angel/IMG_6279.jpg[/IMG] 4) Took off my existing fog light and replaced it with PIAA LED DRL (cost about RM600)... not inclusive of workmanship and material. Kudos to my guy who painstakingly fitted the LED in... Picture taken at 1pm when the sun was the brightest... the LED lights were still visible during daylight! [IMG]http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo147/leoboonloong/White%20Angel/IMG_6277.jpg[/IMG] Taken from the side - FYI, the LED will turn on automatically as I started the engine without having to turn on the angel eyes :top: plus there is no error message displayed in iDrive too!
