nice...

ok so i ended up getting mine today. I got one of each. I will take a picture soon and post it up.

Initial impressions are: I didnt make it wide / thick enough (though that would increase cost). Also, i tried to open a bottle with it and had some trouble.. basically i think the hook part should be more pointy and less flat.. i will give it another shot tomorrow and let you know.

The lettering & turbo design came out OK, but you lose the detail on the inside of the turbine.

I think i personally prefer the raised lettering, though that's a little more $.

you people use bottle openers to actually open bottles? you wooossiieesss lol

use a fork or a spoon, it looks much cooler.

you put ur hand right bellow the cap and then you use the handle to pry it up. It works perfectly.

if i get a bottle opener miata turbo thingy, i'd polish it up and put it underneath my monitor and never touch it again unless i gotta polish it some more :P

i would just buy them straight off the site in your case... if you're buying two, you're right at the $25 minimum, and they're based out of Netherlands anyway, maybe you can pick it up from them directly!

I'd be in for one of these as well.

I saw a pop up here on the site not too long ago for a small keychain that was just like a mini turbo. I ordered 2 and havent heard anything since. I cant find the ad now. WTF!!!!
