Smoothing?

I think it the one of the most simplest changing mods you can do! Transforms front of any car!

I thought the bit on the left was the top part/knob

No that's the female part where it screws onto original gear stick

There should be an extra double 'like' button for those. They'll look great.

agreed, I'm not always a fan of thin spokes but certain wheels like these look great

Excellent!! Let me know if you need to trim more off as I think we've cut around the same amount of bodywork off. I was panicking about that last night haha, but apparently not a lot needs cutting away. So only a few more days for you, that's mint. I hope you're coming to japfest mate.
