Hey Sam,
You can do the UV film for the whole car (Without the windscreen) for 2000HKD, call AK for more info
I am not sure what 246 looks like but for tyres, i will pick Dunlop Z1 or 101z for the price reason.
They are very cheap around 1500HKD, most of us in here got it and very happy with the result. Great Performance, cheap and quiet (Average)

Hi guys,
I was wondering where is a good place where I can get good stuffs like M5 mirrors or M pedals for my E60 in HK. I was thinking of doing some shopping around here while on hols. I heard of CarGym on Kowloon side and planning to drop by tml. Any where else u guys might suggests? Thanks.

but if you looking stuff like M5 mirrors and other m stuff for the car then forget it because most of the stuff need to be ordered, in HK they do not keep stock

cool but ak said the motor is damage so get it checked out for free and change it
I go to the seller's recommended garage. After checking, they said that there has a chance that the pump has no problem..
After they had replaced the broken belt...the air con sys works as normal. Just like a miracle

But as pinguhk said, get tghe third party check again as the garage might have collusion with your dealer.
The part might break again in the next month and the time your 3 months warranty will be expired.
So for the safe side, get it checked again from the third party

Hi,
Any suggestion for UV protection screen? The one in the following link seems good but kind of expensive?
http://hk.apple.nextmedia.com/template/app...art_id=12835761
I find a set of star-spoke 246 2nd hand 18" rim in the market, anyone know what will be the resonable price for it? The tire size that I checked from BMW is 245/40 R18, any better suggestion for better size & what tire brand/model is good to go with it, also price for the tires please.
Don't know much about tires & rim & want to have the suggestion before negotiate with the tire store. Don't want end up be fish tummy!
Thanks!

Thanks!
As for rim 2nd hand should be about 6k to 7k and for tyres get Dunlop Z1 or DZ 101 for the price they are very good. My 19" was only 1500 each for 245/35/19
