Yup, they also do the boring and mundane car repair & maintenance stuff. They can also pinpoint the source of your car problems in less time than it would take the casa. And much cheaper to fix too. All the people working in SL know their car stuff well.

^ sana may franchise din sila kasi sa ngayon alam ko Rapide lang eh. Kaso bad image ata dahil may thread dito. Baka nagtitipid owners at less or no formal training mismo. Mga backyard mechanic lang yung sa iba (hindi lahat ha at hindi karamihan).

Anyway, yung mga may sticker ng Speedlab, Autoplus, K&N, etc. Tapos stock naman, yun isa pang ultimate rice

And suddenly it's ok cause it's owned by tito art and now it's a show car and not ricey. lol JK peace po SG!

Sana magka Speedlab dito sa Pamp. Para may Ibang choices naman, nakukuha halos nang bolt-on performance.

Meh.

Those Juggernauts are loaded. All show ... All go.

If it wasn't then I myself could have slapped a rice badge on it.

Ricers = All show. No go.

brod hindi sa nanghihimasok ako pero hindi ganyan ang puntos noon sa mga post dito eh.

even if you going to do backread.

sabi nila kapag meron mga cosmetics rice kaagad.

kung yung genesis nga na may wing lang na maliit naka post na dito as rice eh.

and some think genesis is a no go?

and they don't even know whats inside the engine room.

they just always tell it is rice due to the cosmetics.

and while dahil nga kay Art eh ok lang dahil alam nyo na loaded pala yung engine room nya.

diba sabi nga nila wag nalang tayo mag judge kung magiging bias din naman pala tayo.

....what? I remember the genesis that were posted here that were considered as yang chow were the likes of that stupid 599 wannabe.

Unless I missed something.

aaminin ko, rice ako... i have a k&n sticker on my intake housing and rear glass... madami nagtatanong kung naka-drop in ako... pag honest mode: hindi...pero pag maangas nagtanong, oo...di naman nun titignan..hehehe

pero sa takbo ng sasakyan, it could pass na may drop-in...

With all these sticker talk, I'm thinking there must be an opportunity here for the likes of Autoplus and Speedlab... that is, they can make available to the public marketing or promotional stickers that anyone can put to help the business gain visibility, but they should also have a line of "premium" or "performance" stickers that they will make available to vehicles that underwent tuning processes and passed certain criteria such as speed/power increase, etc.

That way, anyone putting on any of the regular stickers will be thought of as people trying to help promote the shops -- whether the cars themselves have been tuned or not. But those sporting the performance stickers will be known (at least among enthusiasts) has having passed certain tuning processes and criteria.

And personally, I really dislike seeing people virtually cover their cars with inappropriate stickers, such as a Town Ace that I once saw that sported Spoon, Nismo and Ralliart stickers side by side
