Saw a starion lastnight, looked very clean and shiny from my side. I told the fellow driving it about this site, but i was on my pushbike at the time (starion sucks gas, im poor), so i dont think i had much credability. Anyway, he had a gauge in a chrome cup mounted on the bonnet, sitting down in the drivers side vent, but up high enough as to be able to read. Now, i normally look at this sort of thing and say "oh god", but this actually looked really sweet... Anyone else seen anything like this or got any other ideas along the lines?

the chrome is probably defectable, other than that it might look ok, but be pretty much useless, better mounting it somewhere where you can read it.

Man of the match should have gone to Larkham, he was the All Blacks best player. Got to love the long sleeves.
