    strut bar - para di magtwist ang body ng car? (i guess this is for racers)

    tint - try "magic tints" di ka kita sa loob but malinaw sa labas (not recommended ata ang one way tints nakakasilaw sa labas). eto rin ata yung ginagamit sa bangbus series

    detailing - ask our gurus or check the stickies on this thread (particularly http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18901 pero as a quick info..
    wash
    clay
    polish/glaze
    wax/sealant

    body paints - washover ranges from 15k to 25k ata.

    antenna -try your neighborhood electrician. or reys marikina.

    center cap - eto ba yung sa gulong? ako din naghahanap hehehe

    Welcome to Tsikot sir! Madami pang Tsikot experts and gurus na nakabakasyon kaya di pa nakaka-reply sa thread mo! hehehe! However, try ko sagutin para sa yo:

    1. Strut Bar - Para san po ba ito? ano purpose?
    For stability yata. Ewan. Di kse ako racer boy eh! hehehe! Pero seriously, the best person to ask is niky.

    2. TINT - Meron Bang "one-way" tint na black?
    wala po. merong one-way silver. I suggest using one-way silver, one-way gray or super black on a white coloured car.

    3. Auto Detailing - ano po ba and eksaktong ginagawa sa auto detailing?
    Eto po ang pinaka-comprehensive detailing guide dito sa Tsikot:

    4. Body Paints - gusto ko kase white pden ung car ko pero mas maganda kung may pearl effect sya. ano po ba maganda na pintura? PPG? sikens? ano pa ba iba?
    Honestly, the pearl effect depends on the car. May binabagayan like cars with a lot of curves like an Audi A4. Pearl colors does not look good on any Honda IMHO.

    5. average pricing of body paints - magkano average pag wash over? how about strip to metal?
    Depends on the car din sir. It also depends on the condition of the car and where you are going to have it painted.

    6. antenna - san ba pede pagawa ng antenna bukod sa casa? may motor kase sya e.. sira na ata...
    Dami sa labas sir. Hanap ka ng Hirshmann na brand. Ewan ko lang kung tama spelling. Meron daw sa Concord sa Megamall sabi ni OTEP.

    7. center cap - san ba nakakabili?
    Normally where tires are sold. What kind of rims do you have? If it's OEM, you can find that anywhere along Banawe and Evangelista.

    1.. Strut Bar - Handling of the car.Mostly for cornering siya.Meron pa ngang lower tie bar sa ilalim ito at rear strut bar.Meron pa nga trunk bar eh.hehe.Naalala ko yung isang kilala ko na naka GSR lahat ng bar nilagay niya sabi niya kapag nagcornering daw siya sobrang stiff.Yung sunroof niya nagvivibrate daw.

    2. TINT - Hmm maganda super black tint bagay sa white na ride mo

    3. Auto Detailing - Pinapakitab at maintain yung ganda ng saskyan mo.Mag big berts ka.Madami makikintab na sasakyan dun.hehe

    4. Body Paints - K92 ayaw mo?Its either magK92 ka or Dupont.Taga saan ka ba?Meron akong alam na body repair shop.

    5. average pricing of body paints - Depende sa itsura nung ride yan..Usually nasa 15-20k ang washover 40k and up ang strip to metal.Estimate lang ito ah.

    6. antenna - Try mo sa Banawe or Evangelista

    7. center cap - Banawe or Evangelista lang yan.

    1. Strut Bar
    A strut bar adds rigidity to the car's body, which in turn makes it handle better. However, this is fairly useless if you don't have harder sport suspension, and trust me, you do not want hard suspension bad roads.

    2. TINT
    The darker a tint is, the harder out it is to see. There's absolutely no way around it, so you have to figure out how dark you need it vs. how much you enjoy seeing outside your car at night.

    3. Auto Detailing
    I would just make sure you wash using the two bucket system every week. And wax after washing every other week. If you have swirl marks or dull paint, you might want to get it professionally detailed or if you're brave, polish yourself. However, once that's done, if you maintain it properly with weekly washes, you should be good.

    1. strut bar is for stability specially during cornering.
    2. meron.... yung akin, one way na superdarks... hehehehhe.
    3. nililinis maigi, pati kasuluksulukan. kaya nga details eh. swirl marks are removed, wax finishes are applied for super shiny body. ang detailing eh depende sa step. may one step up to three steps.
    4. dupont maganda.
    5. average wash over costs between 12-15k. washover lang yun ha?
    6. sa banawe and evangelista, nagkalat ang center caps.
