People call it drift charms, but in reality its just harmless decoration. Anyone can have them - you don't need permission

But yes, it started as a Bosozoku thing. Subway handles on the towhook as a sign of badassness

How much BHP does a drift charm add? Doesnt it reduce the Aerodynamics of the car??

I got myself a huge 14" Doraemon plush for my S13. He's sooooo JDM

I thought it originally started in Japan with the bozo guys because they saw the cement trucks with little buckets hanging from the back to catch any cement that would drip off. So they put it on their tow hooks and if they could make it scrape the ground then they were cool.
