I just got back from Hong Kong!

Yeah just yesterday I got back.

If you are looking for car accessories cheap then hop on the MTR to Mong Kok, and just about three blocks from the MTR station is a whole block of nothing but car stores selling everything from audio stuff to guages almost everything you can want.

I picked up quite a load of stuff, I'll take pictures and start my own thread, keep your eyes open.

Do they speak much english in hong kong? Like that MTR place someone was talking about? I've been to Belgium, Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands,Italy, and Luxemburg. I didn't have much trouble communicating with the people there.
How will H-Kong compare?
What is there to do there besides car part shopping? Why are you going? Visiting Family?
Sorry I'm very very nosey, but I cant help it.

Dude, my boss just got back from Hong Kong. I got a fake Rolex that looks exactly to a tee the same as the original on the outside. I went to a Rolex dealer in Tysons Corner Mall and the real one was $5400.

FIND THE REAR WINDOW SPOILER FOR THE 4TH GEN!!!!!!!

buy like 40 of them

they'll sell like hot cakes.

Freaking Sarona wants 300$ for the same ****

Get as many as you can
or get contact info with a store or a distributor over there and then we'll all order them directly from there... or maybe someone will order a whole bunch.....

it can't be more than 300$ US dollars even with shipping....

They do speak some english...not much, just daily basic. I went there two years ago and I did ok there without speaking much cantonese.....asking direction, where to buy what, toilet (funny u have to ask for toilet, not "restroom")....it is a fun place. I am going there to visit my gf's family....yup time to meet the parents.

thx all for your support....I will try my best but remember....I couldnt bring anything big or it wont fit my luggage. I am thinking of small items and non-performance (stickers, shift ****, t-shirt, pedals, etc.) And If I made connection with shops there, would you guys trust someone oversea???

just heard a story from a friend.....her bf bought a lot of goodies from HK and the entire luggage was filled with car stuff. When he came back and they opened it up.....they taxed him and claimed that he's going to use those to make money!!!

oh well, wish me luck

how about an A32 Autech body kit?

http://kiso.ice.uec.ac.jp/~cefiro/image/autech.gif

Front aero bumper F2010-0A583
Bumper installed fog lamp Bz150-0A508
Side sill protector G6850-0A583
Side garnish H0870-0A583
Rear aero bumper (for sedan) H5010-0A583
Sport grille F2310-0A583

from what I've researched, it can possibly be found at a Nissan dealership over there...

PM me if you find it...
