you can check on the malaysia database for Mr Kong. his number is available there. tawau and brunei is not that far. may be u guys can contact each other and mass import ? hehe since he is in import & exporting business. sure easy with customs. cheers mates

i don't know if someone here want to sell it,because it think we might need it(just in case if the LPD want us to put it back)although some of us have changed their rims.. why don't you buy a new one? i think there are more beautiful rims out there 
but if you still like the OEM one,i've seen one shop here that selling it,but i forget the price..

Waaa...
You guys dare to bring your 8 for a long road trip to KK?
If it was me i would be worried about the heating issues the 8 has, and the hot weather we r havin...
Better add another oil cooler or upgrade your cooling system before going for any road trips...
