Thought I'd track the events of the life of my new Cappuccino on here and show off loads of pics while I'm at it.
Here's how it looked when I bought it:
crappy rear fog light:

for those interested... the 14" suzuki alloys with tyres weighed 12kgs each
the 15" honda integra type r alloys with tyres weighed 12.5kg (175 profile tyre) and 13kg (195 profile tyre)... so are one of the lightest 15's you can get! |

harmon/kardon drive + play ipod controller (a bit of a mouthful) installed:
JL audio 6.5" woofer with amp mounted in the passenger footwell - it does not get in the way of your legs when sitting down. i've used this speaker in my 2 smart cars before aswell - it's awesome for the size. the cabinet is homemade from MDF and the amp is an ebay special - i think it was ¤35 delivered!

it doesn't get in the way of the passenger, as their legs go over the speaker and into the footwell.
test it out yourself by putting a bag of oranges in the same place and see if they get squished! |

| I presume it's just the angle of the pic making the wheel look HUGE? |

| yeah, it sits a bit closer because of the hub adaptor, and the wide angle lens also makes it look weird. it's a fair bit smaller than the stock wheel. |
