  1. the guy at pepiliyana has plenty of parts and is used to maintaining a few of those cars
  2. It is a limited edition compared to most cars which were imported here.. but in my opinion as long as the car has been maintained well there is no issue in u buying one...

  7. thx alot mazdaspeed.. i will send u e mail asap.. bt ill need to look at his work .. i would prefer e original replacement part as im kinda concern with the original look.. but if i stick on to that dont think ill get nething done so i might just consider.. i found those lights in the pics at M*Z** motors pepiliyana bt js my luck he hasnt got the original back covers for them with the shipment... they look nice .. ebay has better ones with black backgrounds which looks awesome.. thx again.. just incase if anyone wants to remove their bumper plz contact me hehe ..
  8. thx devinda .. ne idea on where i might be able to find the bumper.. atleast mention a couple of places i should be looking at..
  9. hey after looking at many cars to upgrade to decided again to finish what i started by giving the car a new face lift.. i need everybody's help to find this front bumper (attached) from the mazda protege hatch, or what they get for the protege 2.0 abroad.. ive seen a quiet alot of these in colombo(mostly hatchbacks) if anyone has seen one of these please direct me towards it cos at the moment im hyped out about giving the facelift.. it ll be of great help if anyone has an idea on where to get one from..went around towards the delkanda side but everything was closed yday since it was sunday .. im looking for e replacement part as im not a big fan of getting a bumper made which i doubt will give out the original look im going for.. thx http://img114.imageshack.us/my.php?image=f...equarteron1.jpg i cant figure out how to attach the pic directly onto the forum if any can after opening please do ..thx
  10. man its so weird i just saw a 69 registered old pajero today n when i came to d forum this is the topic.. n the boodalay info is new ...thx mate.. its awesome if sm1s got a 69-6969 heheh
  11. replacing the screen seems a bit extreme for this cos i think its minor but i js dont like marks around.. n this is my second glass but have to comment they did a real good job in fixing it ..they gave me the option of the original or one from some other country but the quality difference showed..lucky i went for the original.but the new glass did not have the original tint the car came with and it sucks cos i cant get that green shine in front anymore,, n when i asked for the 3m windscreen tint i considered it too be a little too much....anyway insurance paid for my glass ..if i try out a wax ill let ul know the results... is compound safe on glass?
  12. hey thx bugatti .. guess kleenparks out then?,, so i shouldnt go ahead with d turtlewax then?.. is there anyother place that i can check ?.. wat did u mean by a dry wax ?.. any thing specific u can mention tat i can try out.. i js dont like these small blade marks.. n Don i have no idea about using dry wax but kleen park totally buffs out the glass using milky waxes thx
  13. hey everyone ..hope ul can help me out with the prob.. checked all the relevant stff on the topic but couldnt come across any thing similar..... i couldnt attend to my car for sometimes and i just started doing everything up again but due to fact that ive overused my wipers(bosch) theyve scratched my windscreen ..forgot to ask from kleenpark as to hw much their windscreen cleaning thing is but im guessing itll be totally expensive?... question is how much is the kleen park windscreen cleaning thing?will it work? are there other ways of doing it?.. i was considering buying a bottle of turtlewax windscreen and trying it my own ? has any body tried or is there a another place i can check to get these marks out ?.. thx...
  14. for the last 6-7 weeks ive been trying to find a vw passat the later facelift version(late 2000) n i couldnt find any except for the one which came on here (the blue one).. well it got me thinking how the owners of these cars are different to all the others in the same category.. as in i saw ads of merc E class and 5series from the time they were launched, even alot of audi's.. but there werent much of the passat's even after such a long time.. either there is only handfull of cars which cant be true cos ive seen alot.. or my other theory is ppl who bought passat were actually buying the car planning on keeping it for a long time than try to make it business like buying a bmw or a merc... what does everyone think.. i might be wrong.. plz comment .. overall im guessing the cars are pretty reliable and worth running cos nobody is selling .. they look gorgeous and i think running one of them is pretty unique compared to alot of vehicles.. http://www.passatworld.com/month/2005_06/index.shtml
  15. didn kno d retail will b tat high on it.. as in still d XF is 5series category rite?... its worth it cos it cannot be compared but not with a 400 something perent tax on retail.
