Nice story.

I am over the pissed stage and now want my car looking in as new condition again. So I am running around getting quotes.

I just hope that it stays in good shape for a while. Unfortunately one of the hazards of living in Hong Kong is the quality of the drivers. They manage ok on the main roads but parking is a skill lost forever to the Gods of Fung Shui it seems.

Just another chapter eh?

 

spare parts there are dollars in value.

if you can drive the car to dongguan or guangzhou to have it serviced there, you can save a lot.

i get parts from there.

 

Good idea. But I need a permit to do so as well as a Mainland licence. If I knew a local Mainlander that might have helped but sadly can't speak Mandarin at all.

I have so far had 3 different prices for the grill.

Original 3000HK and 1700HK
Taiwanese copy 950HK

Divide by 7.9 for USD.

Are all the panals on this car alluminum/alluminium? Or just the bonnet?
