hi everyone...
i'm in the middle of face-lifting my 1997 wira 1.5 AB to SE look.
currently managed to collect the SE's 16 inch wheels, side skirt, front
bumper & arena grille, rear discs + the correct rear muffler. all not
installed yet, since getting the car repainted next month (couldn't
decide what color yet, but it will definately not red or black or green)
parts that i can't get:
1. front lips for the SE/Arena bumper
2. c-pillar SE badges
3. rear 2-piece skirt
tried melaka's service centre, so far no answer one...
anybody knows where to find these things? thanks...

What's the point upgrading bodyki ?? Aren't this wasting of $$...since
these only are "cosmetic" for your car...spend on improve car performance
or FC better
Just my 2 cents

Useful upgrades from SE:
rear disc and calipers
extractor + piping + muffler
Time and money wasters:
gt-wing
bodykit
waja engine cover
gearknob and shift cover
16" rims (yes eventhough a 1.5 engine can drive 16" rims but your FC goes
up and tyre replacement is above RM200 for one)

I'm not a big fan of extravagant bodykit upgrades, but Mr. gtmaniac seems
to know what he's doing here. At least u r not doing some Ah-Beng-patched-
up job.
Of course, I also do not agree to the use of 16" rims, my guess is your
car should be auto, and 16 inchers will rob you a lot of power from an
already underpowered car.
You said you have collected a set of rear discs, are you planning to get
one set for the front as well? The original WiSE uses 14" discs upfront
compared to the 13" on your standard car.
Anyway, good luck with your project, and do keep us posted.
If got photos remember to post ya.

Err, just to chip in, how much is the rear discs plus installation?
