Sample Fender Flares

4X fender flares were made by the famous brand of WARN. This type of fender flare is best for all types of truck and vehicles that has larger tires and custom wheels. What's great about this type of flare it can be mounted inside the fender well using the unique styled screws together with heavy-duty 3M adhesive tape, these flares are also sealed to the fender rim. Using the durable construction of this fender flare, it keeps off moisture, dirt and also helps in having rust. The hardwearing materials used in this device is Warn's exclusive armor guard which is a high impact ABS co-laminate. It is actually the number one material to get maximum flexibility and durability for your rig.

Body Lift

A body lift is a common and cheap method to run larger tires on a vehicle. It involves installing a puck where the body mounts to the frame in order to increase the clearance between tires and the body. This is often used to allow the placement of a larger motor for an engine swap. It is considered by many to be inferior to a well built suspension lift. The downfall to installing pucks for spacing is that over time the rubber in the puck tends to deteriorate. This causes the body to sag, and will eventually become unsafe. While the controversy continues about body lifts versus suspension lifts, a properly installed aftermarket body lift kit can give the desired effect just as safely as a suspension lift.

Long Neck Karen Hill Tribe


This lady was the first to catch my attention during my adventure at the Long Neck Karen Hill Village in Chiang Dao.

She could speak minimum Chinese, enough to sell her tribe's handmade goods. For that, I bought a Turquoise Stone Necklace, which was almost as heavy as my camera!
Price? 100 Baht = RM10.


Hill Tribe Lady

The village is surrounded by natural flora and fauna, primitive resources and "machines" to prepare food for the family. Two little boys were following us through our walk around the hill.

This scene made me smile.

Exclusive Hotel in Chiang Mai

Mandarin Oriental Dhara Devi

Mandarin Oriental Chiang Mai

This hotel looks larger than it seems in this photograph.
When I say large, I mean there is no way you can walk to your room. You'll need a carriage, (which is superb for me because I love horses) to bring you to your room.




This grand hotel has almost everything you need, as a tourist, to experience the real life of the locals. How?

This is what you see right on your doorstep.



The surrounding environment is filled with plantations such as paddy fields, corn, fruits...you name it. Almost all the local plantations that can be found in Chiang Mai is found in this very hotel.

Your activities, as a tourist, includes getting your hands dirty. You are guided through the plantations, learning from seeding to harvesting the produce. That's real experience if you ask me.

The hotel also has its own yoga centre, swimming pool, business centre and a british colonial building as one of your choices of hotel rooms.
