hahaha I was straightforward and told my wife I changed the brakes.

She told me she didn't want to know how much it costed

Maybe you can time the painting of the calipers on your next trip. They can work on your car while you are away so no hassle. That's what I did.

To get shaved reflectors, it will cost you around $3K to repaint the whole bumper.

Charged me $900, only 1 to 2 hundred more than any other places without the 3D. I heard another place has 3D too but not the same machine. Charging over $1.2k.

A comprehensive report is given. Our front camber can't be adjusted due to the dual link system.

I had to do it since I swapped the coilovers. Brought my car in to adjust the coilovers settings so might as well do it.

I nearly killed a cop last night.

I was reviving along at Quarry Bay. Drove by one of those illegal bus which people were queuing to get on. A cop bike came out without even looking from a side road with yield sign, I guess the bus completely blocked his visual. My Brembo 6 pot went into action quickly and we both stopped and avoided the crash. This cop was so in shock he dropped his bike on the ground. I was shell shocked too and saw the cop waved me out. I thought he was trying to cite me or something but then I know it's him who isn't right. Actually he was asking me to help him to pick up his BMW bike which no way can one person can picked up. I helped him and loads of people watching from the bus queue and drivers behind me. The cop just took off in no time. I guess he was too embarrassed.

You were reving along but didn't speed, something doesn't add up here.

Blessings from God, man. When I drove by that bus, loads of smoke coming from that bus' exhaust. Can't see clearly so I slowed down quite a bit. Guess that filthy old bus saved the day.

Should file a complaint against the cop for dangerous driving. He wold have done it to you if it were the other way around. I get fed up with the hk m/c police who ride with out any regards to the rues of the road. Utter morons.

I know. But I was kind of shell shocked and never imagine would run into such situation. Too bad I don't have a black box. Could be a sweet revenge to these cops for issuing me parking tickets lately.
