Finally made some time to wash the BRZ and being in California with the constant drought, I decided to try out the Turtle Wax Rinseless stuff. It's definitely nice to save a good bit of water by not needing to rinse. Also nice being able to do it in the sun since you dry the sections as you wash. I will pick up some ONR when I run out of the Turtle Wax, I think I've read that it works better. It's nice that Turtle Wax is at Walmart for so cheap though.
Also, finally got around to making a hole in the front tow hook cover and adding a grommet for the plate relocator: And finally, debadged "Subaru" from the trunk. I think I like it with just "BRZ" and the Subaru logo. The letters just peeled off using my fingers, no heat gun or fishing line/dental floss, and they didn't even leave any residue. All I had to do after was hit it with some quick detailer/wax. Couple more pictures in here: http://imgur.com/a/nX7Q1 |

Took her along for my first autocross. I'm hooked. It's probably the most fun I've had driving a car, ever. Stock Primacys kept it interesting.
Corvette Club organized the event. Friendly people, I managed to do better than several Z06s!

It's addictive. Give it another couple of events, and you'll be pining for new tires (like me).
