Thumbs up Friend is Visiting Japan

I have a female, non-car oriented friend who will be visiting Japan soon. She said if I can think of something I want, she'll be on the lookout. Since she's only there for a couple of days (and only in Tokyo), can you guys think of S2000 related stuff that would be easy for her to find? If it's something really small (e.g., Rays/Volk decals for wheels), she may be able to send back a bunch of it. Feel free to throw out some ideas....

Tell her to bring you back the ASM time attack car. She could smuggle it in her purse or something, I'm sure it'd barely set off metal-detectores with all that CF on it

i tried to get my sister to bring me back a fujitsubo exhaust. all i got was a magic egg (grows a plant with a message written on the leaves when you water it) and a cell phone holder that looks like a smiling pumpkin.

You'd kind of have to be in to the automotive scene in Japan to know where to go.

That's kinda what I thought. Oh well. Anyone with some non-S2000 ideas? Not sure what that doll is that was mentioned earlier.
thanks

Get some JDM sidemarkers and a navigation system.

I got a buddy who is in Japan (Okinawa) and is very much in the automotive scene, anything worth trying to get that you can't get here?

I'm sure there are such things, but it seems like everything is available in the U.S., but you have to go through the ONE sole importer, who marks it up considerably. I'm just assuming that the JDM stuff is pretty cheap if purchased in Japan.
