Question

Mine was the race air full leather MOMO gear ****!

It was the first time I had ever modified a car and I felt like a right vandal taking the gear stick apart! It was worth it as it makes the interior look a bit more lively and makes gear changes smoother...

Went to pick up my car from dealer in Cyprus before bringing it over here and already had the Clear front and side indicators packed in my suitcase.

5 Mins after picking it up was putting the them on then wife comes out with a very dissapointed look on her, well what did she expect at least i waited for the car to be shipped back here before i coloured the wedges

Another one for clear side indicators

Kinda cheating though as the wheels/back box were already done when we brought the car

Yes a Vanilla air freshener.
But I fixed mine to the vent under the drivers seat so as not to spoil the elegant lines of the car (STI7)

HA HA HA!
