Still waiting for my mud-guards and scuff plates to come.. More updates soon.....

Nice emblems on your ride, and how much is the damage for the garnish plate and the set of emblem.

nicely done.. great work~

Swee!!! Is the steering Emblem stick on?

I like the emblem - It looks really nice on the FOrte - much better than the "KIA" logo.

If the interest rate is high, I might organise 2nd GB for the emblem anytime soon.

The emblem are well fitted for both Forte and Koup.

anyway, for those who are getting the emblems, make sure u add additional 3M tape onto the emblems.. mine is abit loose after the big rain ytd..

yeah! bro.. i tink red emblem will look nice on yr car! look like honda civic ..

haha, hopefully the front emblem (stick-on) will not peel off after heavy rain or petrol kiosk car wash...

kysoong wrote:haha, hopefully the front emblem (stick-on) will not peel off after heavy rain or petrol kiosk car wash...

the front wont.. cos protected by bonnet.. the back might.. mine abit loose liao.. sianzzz

aiyoh... then how??

kysoong, dont worry the size im getting for you is the well fitted size. Its the same size as your stock.

the 3M tape is those uses on windows visor or your stock emblem or the cerato forte wording.

u see cerato forte wording can already hold for so long.. so dont hve to worry.

lawrence, yours is the same size as front so you need to stick extra tape ard the perimeter of the emblem cause the center has less contact with the arch shape inside.

How much will the emblem be??

cheap cheap at a special price..

Nice!

HI Lawrenceke, means that the scuff plate u brought it from china??


and your frd at china ship it back to singapore from china??

i tot all along the scuff plate is from korea... lol

the china supplier bought it from korea then send it to china and from china his friend bought it and shipped it over here.

yeah.. quite troublesome and time-consuming.. but i got a korean friend who manage to source for me the same item.. plus shipping.. korea source more expensive but faster.. china source cheap but shipping time kills! Take my emblems for example.. i order the emblems from korea after 1 week i ordered the scuff plates.. the emblems came but the scuff plates are still in China..

fortunately not china made, else it might be "FROTE" instead of "FORTE"...

actually.. there are also china made version.. but non LED based.. hahaha

Nice thing you got there haha

waaah! these scuff plates are nice bro! uber poisonous!

cboonh wrote:waaah! these scuff plates are nice bro! uber poisonous!

ya.. super poisonous.. plus shipping and installation.. cheaper than GB

yeah... bro lawrenceke, you able to ask you frd to ship in another set of red led in for me? i dun mind waiting as long as by end of the day i can get the item i'm fine with it le.. cos it save up alot dan the gb.. lol

if u are getting red led scuff plates.. get from MCD.. at least got warranty..

i order my set, fearing that it might spoil thru the shipping and i don't have any assurance if they are spoilt. So it is like taking a risk to import in.

U risk.. u save.. i will recommend u to get from MCD since it is available locally. Mine cannot be found in MCD.. so i import in myself. 8)
