and my graphics haha

i use felt tip pens for exhausts, theyre about the right diameter, just cut the tube, sand and chrome paint. sometimes use a bit of mirror effect vinyl sticker on the tip

6 spokes are nice tho
i do mate but im gonna hopefully get some of those 5 spokes like dave has on his R5 GTT for the black one, the ones on it now are a bit knackered theyve been painted about 20times.
putting the chrome 6 spokes on the skylines and the wider 5 spokes on the NSX

loving the lowriders!
