Also there's adjustable top-mounts visible at the front there...

Welcome to the club, personally I really dislike the mr whippy veil side kit, but the car looks very clean and the wheels are spot on.

Any plans for it?

Lots of people tend to spray them themselves. I did it to the silver gr I had. looked class. Have no appetite to go through the same bother again with the mivec. ps...your side repeaters are also not standard :) And to the best of my knowledge, the momo steering wheel is not standard either, unless you have an airbag on the p/side of the dash, but i stand to be corrected.

The gr sports package just gives you side skirts and rear spoiler
There were 2 optional steering wheels with airbag. The other type is a horrid massive wheel.
No prefacelift spec had an airbag or momo wheel as standard, nor did a momo gearknob come on any spec, despite numerous websites incorrect info.
