Japanese License Plate And JDM Parts here in Japan.
Konichiwa,
I decided to post this here instead of posting it on "Asia" section so I can hopefully get a faster response. I only have a few days left here in Japan and I'm going to Tokyo tomorrow. Google really is no help for me at this time.
Anyway, I just have a simple question.... where on earth can I buy JDM parts, even as simple stickers that are mainly "japanese style" and more importantly "japanese license plates".
I know I can get them via Amazon. But since I'm here, I'd really like to get a close-up look and get some "great quality" items.
Any info. can be greatly appreciated.

Find a SUPER autobacs or regular autobacs store. You will be amazed, it's like the lovechild between a autoparts store, JDM tuner and walmart. They have quite the product range form replacement bulbs to full on coilovers and race tires on display. I have been to the ones in Nagoya, Yokohama and Tokyo. Eeven if you don't buy anything it's fun to check out while in Japan.

I made it to "Autobachs" and this place truly is big! I told my girl I'll be there for half an hour but that turned into at least almost a 2-hr visit.
I ended up not getting any for my Japanese cars. I did get something for the German side which is a Carlsson emblem which I believe has been sitting on their display case for years and the price was even better even if I would have ordered it directly from Carlsson's website.
I didn't find what I was looking for, at least at this store that I went to in Koto, which was the Japanese License plate. Upgarage might be a better place to grab some of those but it is quite a travel and I don't have that luxury at this time. Anyways... here are some random shots!
BTW, those IS-F shift ***** runs approx. 40-50 U.S. Dollars. Not too bad. Any of you guys want one? =)
