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) | |

And why does the one logo have studs on it? That one for the grille? | |

| 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 | |

| 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) | |
