SMB212R printer ran out of paper halfway through the trip..printed the last ticket (Serial: 3992) and the "out of service" red light started blinking.

SBS3633E EDS super bright compared to SBS3623J when they are back to back at NTU...
-
TIB960L - ninja front doors like SMB198Z, opening fast and banging... Lighting covers very poorly placed and some starting to become transparent... Dirty interior, refurbishment coming soon?

1. TIB1242U has very thin EDS font, you mean? You nearly scared me into thinking that you could see how thin the EDS is!
2. I think that you saw SBS2688D, as I have only seen the Strider and DM3500 B10M MK4s on 170. It's likely not SBS2988M, as the B10BLEs are all at SLBP (except SBS1688K under HGDEP), due to having to go over to Jurong Island to get CNG for the buses. So, I think you saw SBS2688D, which apparently has been JB-registered for a long time...

Oh woah! Hope HGDEP fixs that soon!

SMB193L - rear door panel (with the door lights) shaking, Super Coffee interior advertisements pasted on the walls, not posters...
SMB1334R - 'DOOR CLOSING' sign turns on when the rear door is opened and closes. Epic fail!
TIB506R - previous Marigold milk interior ads still pasted on... Growling engine, like TIB486P and TIB551J...

Those are not cracks, but they are the gaps to ensure easy repair/maintenance/accident, they can just dismantle the part of the ceiling board, just like the bodyworks which are piece-by-piece fixed up like a puzzle... If i'm not wrong the ceiling board is a kind of plastic board material near to acrylic...

SMB3014B - shiny rims
TIB729P - very shiny repainted black rims

Why would they want to paint the rims to black?

The black matches the black livery on the side of the bus and does not show dust easily. However, the black does wear out easily on some buses, exposing the original silver colour of the rim...
-
Probably a way to keep the rims shiny...
