Are yours Speedy as well? I know Speedy does have a presence in the US (they are an Australian company though), just wasn't sure if they were popular or not.

A little bit of bling - metal grill logo, 1 large stick-on logo (for the boot lid), and 2 small stick-on logos (for the front quarters underneath my repeaters and 1.8L badges)

An oil catch can!
And why does the one logo have studs on it? That one for the grille?

Yep - you feed the studs through the grille and then screw a plate on the back to clamp it, that way you can remove it easily if you want to re-position it etc without damaging anything

And another little bit of JDM bling (that will mostly be hidden). Apparently these are getting harder to find now as they stopped making them, but I managed to get a brand new one from the UK relatively cheap
The old Momo logo
New one fitted
Might be tempted to drive with the rubber horn pad off a little more just so I can look at it

It does look better, though I always prefer it with the rubber cover on

I feel like if I had a wheel like that, I'd only drive with the cover off when I wanted to feel like a boy racer or something hahah. Looks good though

My First HDR Image Got a tripod the other day (going on a cruise to NZ next week and I want to take some good deck shots of the sounds + harbours), decided to test it out in the uni carpark (I live a couple of blocks away)
An OK effort I reckon, a little too soft (didn't adjust picture position at all, plus the resize meant that resolution + some sharpness was lost) but not too bad, better that than the opposite of a heavily saturated, un-natural colour look, and it can only get better from here

That has been contemplated, there are a couple of bits that need to be touched up on the rear bumper anyway, but I might get all the painting done at the same time (new folding mirrors, door frames, handles/rub strips, new bonnet etc)
