Nope.

By the way, this thing was covered with decals that would give away its identity too easily, so I digitally removed them.

Is it the driver's cockpit cover of a larger single-seater competition car?
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

No!

Yes!

Edit: I missed oko94's question. 48-hour lock for both Wendax and oko94. First of the two to provide the answer gets the point!
