OK, the final report on trying to find a paint that matches the wheels of the 2019 BRZ (I assume the colors are the same through the years).

No luck in trying to find a single color paint that is...

AOS/catch can?

Does anyone make (and has anyone installed) an AOS or an oil catch can on a 2nd gen BRZ?

I put a Crawford AOS on my 2019, was wondering if there’s an equivalent for the 2nd gen car.

Thanks!

Please share your observations and experiences of the '23 vs. your old '17. I'm in a similar boat, own and absolutely love my '19, but have been searching and yearning for a 2nd gen car.
