zulu4 SG

get him a new muffler… an LTA legal one ought to be around 1k. then u can use the remaining amount to get him a set of chromed number plates (this is not legal though)

TRD_Sport_M SG

it best u bring him to his fav accessory shop or workshop than ask him choose something within ur 1.5k budget.
no point buying something he dun like or something he maybe order already!!
than waste $

TRD_Sport_M SG

LH83 SG

don't think she'll like getting into them when she's wearing a skirt... hehe... Mr. Green

zEnnR SG

haha..definitely...I will die from strains and cramps on those KL trips sia

keith_typeR SG

Yo zEnnR,

I agreed with TRD_Sport_M. No matter how many things we suggest here or how good the stuff is, the most impt thing is he MUST like it. I will suggest ICE installation to ya, but then come to think abt it, if he has his own plans for the kinda installation he likes, then your plan will backfired. It may even make things worse if he is disappointed at the stuff you get for him. (Meaning: he may wan something even better. But bcos u already got this for him, he got no choice.) Although, I doubt he will be unhappy (even if he is, he sure hides it from u), its still better to make your $1.5k worth spending right??

Personally, i dun own a car. I'm looking from a normal guy's point of view. I always tell my gf what I want so that both of us will end up happy. I dun mind there is no surprise. You must remember this: we are GUYS. And GUYS are practical. You can still surprise him by bringing him to a workshop (his fav one) and tell him the $1.5k budget you hav for him. I bet he will be extremely excited and delighted abt it!

p/s: I can never understand why you ladies can hav so many pairs of shoes!!

Cheers,

Hello Keith_typeR,

Seriously, i will be very happy and delighted to have a GF buying gift but... not so expensive gift.. 1.5K could be this poor lady one month salary. I will not be happy if my GF spend so much on me. Personally, a small simple handmade gift is really sufficient enuf to make my day. hehehe... on the other hand.. I seriously would like to have a carbon fiber bonnet.. hehhe...

Cheers,
Peter

Peter,

The trips are not tiring but imagine sitting on those bucket seats along the journey for like 200min ? Wink

petergold_99 SG

ya i can understand how your BF felt when he is in his bucket seat for KL trip... imagine.... eeeer... damn funny

zEnnR SG

How much and where can i get the carbon fibre bonnet?

Actually I'm nt too sure about this..the combination of black and white doesnt sound very exciting in my opinion..haha..(talk about an amateur..)
Anyway I know it must be impressive to have this carbon fibre bonnet thingy

keith_typeR SG

zEnnR,

I guess you are still keen to buy something on your own. Good luck in finding the right stuff for him!!

petergold_99 SG

Take my advice. Dun buy him so expensive gift.... i think he will apprieciate u even with simple handmade gift.... trust me... i am a very ego man (usually that drives a fast car), if my GF buy me an expensive gift... i feel very lousy and very pain for her money.... not that my GF is earning a lot. My GF earns about 1.5K a month, so if she spend this money and left nothing for the whole month i would feel damn bad... not a good idea... just get him a good seafood dinner.... cost so much cheaper..

zEnnR SG

U have bucket seats?

Can just change one side anot? haha..
change his side, then leave mine as the orginal recaro red one..

petergold_99 SG

Of course... you can change his seat only... I do not have a bucket seat, but i sat one before... damn tight... no room for........that... to move around...

Please consider properly... ok. Simple gift is still the best.

harloe. I've been to France, Calais, Le Mans, Nantes and Paris. I'm now in Amsterdam, Holland, and I'm going to Antwerp, Belgium later. From there going to Brussels, then flying back to Glasgow b4 going back to London, so internet access is pretty sporadic. Anyways Le Mans quite cool. The town, everyone also put racing car pics, even hairdressing salon, kopitiam, boutique, all look like they should be selling motorsport parts. I wandered around the Dunlop Kurve at the circuit itself, and visited the museum there. Pity I only wnet there on the Tues AFTER the le mans 24 hours race. Sighhh

TwinTurbo_Supra SG

chey, so u went on a holiday. i thought wad happen to u.

Kr0n SG

Wow your bf is really very lucky to have you. To have a girlfriend who is willing to spend $1.5k on a birthday present is already quite something. But, to have a girlfriend who will listen to you ramble on about your cars and stuff that sounds totally Mongolian to her, and then go on to make a real effort to find out more about it, big big respect to that man. I roughly know how it feels cause my gf used to ask me, "you want Ferrari or me? you idiot" Wah... Rolling Eyes ...erm.....*mumbles*ferrari.. Very Happy heh kidding..

I won't advice you to specifically get auto parts for him, although he might like it very much. Why not take that money, and go for a short honeymoon or something? Go do something exciting and different together! That ought to leave an impression on him, but don't forget about the car he loves too! =)

Hope that helped.

Cheers!
