JDM AA63 Carina grille

Got the grille as well. So everything is complete now! :)

Only lost my bid on the TA63 gauge cluster, but I won’t need upcoming year anyway so maybe better luck next time. ;)

In total it cost me 14770 yen so far, so that is with handling and without shipping to holland. Just have to see and wait how much more the shipping will be.

Puppy saving TA63 Carina

Oh great! I lack a turbo on my Carina and now I can’t do puppy saving!

Oh well… I didn’t fancy the turbo GT-TR Carina anyway. I’m more fan of the 4AGE. ;)

Anyway, the source can be found here:

Live manga @ ABC Amsterdam!

Yesterday I was looking for new shoes in the center and I just passed by the ABC. All windows were covered with beautiful manga drawings!

She is a live Manga performer which, as I understood, is somehow drawing them as a performance. More or less art and all her works are either paintings or painted clothes. Kahless described it as manga graffiti.

When I spoke to Kahless and it turned out to be a quickly planned visit to Amsterdam and he was asked to be their translator. They tried to get her exposing in the Stedelijk but they already were occupied with other “short exhibitions”

Too bad I was on a limit time frame: only half an hour to get to the other store of Fred de la Bretonnerie to buy the shoes I wanted so I could only look at everything in a few minutes. Would have loved to stick around and perhaps have a short chat. :(

To see more of her work, look here:
