The accessories listed should be universal although the design of china's K3 is slightly different from our version. I've ordered the items but won't know whether it'll fit or not until I collect the car :D

We should organise a groupbuy on those item, Should be even cheaper... [laugh]

 

Hmm, I doubt so. Generally the items are quite big and I'm ordering direct from them without going through any agent so the only thing that is gonna be slightly cheaper is the shipping fee but its just the initial charge :D

I order the stuffs first but I'm delaying my collection till around end of December because I won't be in town  :D I ordered the Rich Espresso but this color is quite rare on the road so can't actually see how the car look like LOL!

research more on whether the stuff fits anot though. not very sure for the FL version.

 

the bumper protector does not fit the pre-FL k3. china k3 bumper slightly different.

 

Trunk metal plate (Dont know the exact name)

I'm not very confident about the rear cause the design of the rear is slightly different. But the scuff plate? is that what its called? in the interior should be the same :D Can't seem to find any further info on that ><

scuff plates shld be fine.

 

for interior, dont order anything that has a different shape from left to right from China. like for example the aircon vents, head unit stuff etc, as china is left hand drive, everything is laterally inverted in design.

I chose this colour too but last minute change to red as wife discover that at certain angle or light, the car look greenish and smaller compare to other color. So we change to temptation red instead. Heard from SE, now there's a $2k discount for uncommon color, wonder what it is?

Yep! Didn't order all those haha! Gonna try HID though, seem like the reviews quite good and its only +/- a hundred bucks :D

The steering wheel cover may not fit perfectly since FL steering is not full circle..

 

I think the boot plate has a bit of misfit if I dun remember wrongly...

 

Some suppliers may have options for you to chooce pre-FL (2013-2016) or FL (2017). just note when u order.
