Classic White Tsurikawa / JDM Bosozoku Ring


As any Japanese car enthusiast in another country with owning a Japanese car you want little things that relate back and well, make it more "JDM". I decided to grab one of these Tsurikawa's from here to add to my skyline. The story behind this as quoted from their site is:

 "Stolen in trains by our local young gangsters, also known as bosozokus, the tsurikawas were originally attached inside cars so passengers could slide their wrist inside the ring and safely hang their body outside the window.
They quickly became the symbol of a reckless youth and bosozokus started to attach them outside heavily modified bikes and cars to show rebellion and disrespect to authority.
Nowadays, hardcore Japanese car enthusiasts are still flaunting them to express their freedom."
I ordered it February 13th, 2016 for $16.15 USD and it got here today, February 22nd, 2016. No shipping fees as it was just in a packing envelope and was quoted to be here in 10-25 days, so i'm more than content  and happy that it got here in 9. The ring being made out of PVC and the strap made out of nylon and plastic with a steel fastener I personally expected it to feel cheap but that's not the case here, feels quite strong and sturdy for a plastic train handle. Guess they are supposed to hold up to the abuse, eh.

This is how i received it with their little note, I made sure to Instagram it for them as soon as i got it out of the package haha. Even got another discount code for the next time i'm ordering from their site which is awesome of them.


All mounted up on my car for the first time which was as simple as unscrewing the two Phillip screw fasteners, looping it through as where i put it on my rear tow hook and then redoing up the fasteners until tight. And then a quick picture on my phone to show how she looks.
Now to just the test of time and abuse to see how this lasts. I'm excited, time to go show it off.
