The 'Oh Shit' moment was when I looked again while turning and she appeared to have sped up! Luckily, my baby saved me as I walked with some minor aches and pain. It was my first car accident ever after 7 years with my license/clean driving. My baby never even made it to it's first birthday. Today was suppose to be the day she was suppose to have the TRD exhaust installed.
When crossing traffic, I never assume that the other driver is going to slow down in time, especially with wet road conditions.

Sorry your BRZ is wrecked, but glad you walked away. I hope the other driver is okay, too?

I was spotted out in the wild.






And pulled over again.


This time because of my front windshield tint. Fix-it ticket.

ALSO, while rallying up a steep, dirt path (going sideways on the way up and coming back down) I apparently rattled my reverse light bulbs out of their sockets! So now they're just laying there in the housing... It's such a PITA to get up there in those housings that I just left them for now.

Took out the OEM inlet hose/noise generator and put in the Perrin inlet hose and painted (ignore the painters tape..the shits still tacky). FYI, the clips on the OEM inlet are a PITA.

Plus at this moment when the pic was taken we were heading to a place where my (now ex)girlfriend was staying at after we watched Godzilla.

Alaska Problems.

Got crazy with the Niteshade for the side markers.





The light output is like nil anymore...oops. So I think I'm just going to pull the bulbs out of them. I'd rather no light than a dull red/orange night glow.

I think you need to fix these. They are for your safety, as well as others on the road. Maybe you could wetsand them until light output is suitable?
