I take this as "you pay what you get", you pay a premium but you only need to do it once... and your car will be out (touch wood) in 1 month hehe...

Syed, saw yr car a few days back, all ready next wiring ,AC and interior.

BUT , the colour does not do justice mate, it should be a 2 tone color, that will make it stand out.
