hoho paint the roof black - that's the latest ZE2 craze right? i might prefer an actual carbon fiber wrap (to act as protection) coz I'm damn angry why my pearl white roof got lotsa particle-stains... haiz... but to buy a pearl white and then cover it up also quite stupid hor? what do you guys say

they never reply me visors leh... but original Honda Insight (from Honda Japan) says ~S$200 excl shipping, installation, mark-up...

I've got the quotes for MUGEN kit you want? whole set painted at least 5k incl. installation. I'm aiming for at most the rear wing first - RR wing painted is about ~1.5k also incl. installation. Alternatively, I think i might just go to solomonbrothers for a customized full bodykit - just tell them to design similarly lor... ~2k

I can pm the MUGEN quoted breakdowns to you and the contacts if you want. Let me know.

Hi All. Thinking of getting a Pearl White Insight. Went to this turf club to take a look. From H* C*RZ , quote me $79 plus. Never go further in detail as wanted to find out more from the forum.

Saw Kiam facing some aftersales service with them ? Problem solved? I don't think I wanted to have any deal with them as I am quite worry about the battery problem for hybrid.

Any bro can recommend me some reliable PI for this purchase?

Thank You.

let me know the price too! although I'm trying to sort out my finances first..

And recently, i'm thinking of getting the grille from Exclusive Zeus instead... google it up! It's few black bars basically which looks nicer than MUGEN's grille i feel...

maybe I'll go for Solomon's customization eventually just to save $ *shrugs*

hey pal, PM-ed you... not trying to flame anyone but just giving you my accont of my personal experience...

with regards to my car batt incident, turns out just a 'false' alarm which I fixed by jumpstarting it myself (although I still can't tell what's wrong). I tot it was related to the hybrid batt but seems like it's not. I still didn't like the response and after-sales service esp. the part that says "why don't you drive to the service workshop"... if I can do that, I don't have to call them for help.

Hi Kiam, Thank you very much for the PM.

I guess no one will be interested to frame anyone out there but some PI really need to improve their sales and not just to focus on making their commission.

Though we can refer it to CASE after that but is just too much trouble. No one wish to go thru this I guess.

Thanks a lot once again.

Is 4 seater, but the back seat very narrow. Only for kids i think. But the real production maybe they will make it into 5 seater. But CRZ really nice:). Very hot car. In Motor show, Honda and Lexus is the most attractive and most people. FCX clarity, I can't even take the photo, too crowded liao.

Anyway, I don't know how to upload the photo. Maybe we meet up then happy talk :). Bought some magazine of Insight mod. Not ony Mugen and Modula, others brand accessories very nice too. KEN style, tein ....etc

I manage to get 25/1 scale model of insight too. Very happy.
