Really tempted to try buying hafei parts online shop57271521.taobao.com Our air filter (cotton type) cost only 10yuan! which is only SGD $2 .. vertex sells it at $25 .. a gross profit of $23 ... Other parts that i saw on this shop would be spoilers for 185 yuan, arm-rest for the gear area at only 80 yuan .. it might be pricey for the chinese.. but still cheaper for us .. Problem is .. i dont know if they are willing to ship out of china

Check out their sites. Looks interesting...
We can prob try it out. However my two cents is that buying parts from them and air them in will be on a pre-amp basis.
For those owners with badly wear parts. It will be best to order them in advance. Neither I don't think any of us will have the patience to wait for the parts for a good two to three weeks when it failed nor will deliver our throat to be slit vertex.

I cant really read chinese well, but it looks ( not 100% sure ) like they ship within china.. not sure about outside of china though.. this is just one of the many hafei parts "stores" in taobao.com.. anyone going to tour in china? haha

I agree, better to prepare parts in advance. Don't wait for breakdown then buy. The car will be beached for a while. We can consolidate and do a mass-order. The prices are really good! But I heard these China companies don't deal internationally. Perhaps someone here can negotiate with them and persuade them to ship out of China.

Parts that I need and a few other bits and odds n' ends are available on line in taobao.Most of the parts are the ones that take a lot of abuse such as locks,throttle cables,gear linkages,pads ,discs, drums ,knobs ,switches etc............................
Intel(short for covert intelligence gathering)shows that they only ship within their borders. Unless I have proof that they ship internationaly,Hafei will be pleased to suck me dry.
