frs color regret :(

Having owned a black car, I feel your pain. They look good when they're clean but keeping them spotless is a major PITA.

Clear bra over top of Opti-Guard?

Hmm one or the other then?

Can't you do both?

[Calidrifter]

I believe the opti guard has to be over the bra.

[jarviz]

is there anything wrong with just opti-guard alone?

[tripjammer]

Whiteout or Asphalt is the way to go in the FR-S.

The blue or the white is the way to go in the BRZ.

Are you a DotA player?

Sal, that picture in your avatar looks familiar. Is that your car?

[Nevermore]

Rice, I love it. If only license plates weren't so limited haha

Snozz, can't say I know what that is, so nope.

You can do both. You'd do the Opti-Guard over the Clear Bra though if you were to do it. Apparently with something like Xpel Ultimate you shouldn't Opti-Guard over top of it because it messes with the self-healing.

I'm planning on Opti-Guarding my car. May even do it myself... Not sure! :P

I am LOVING my hot lava more and more everyday. Specially with the new black wheels I put on it yesterday. When in the sun, the color comes alive, much better looking then when sitting in a showroom.

nope maybe is yours sorry lol.but is exactly like my stock raven.

All the black cars eventually want the white car.

[Reprobate]

No regrets with my Asphalt - I think it's the best looking color with Black a close second. None of the other colors really do it for me. Each color seems to have a totally different effect on the FR-S, more so than I've noticed on other cars I've been interested in.

Dont worry - there's always having it sprayed down the road.
Aside from GBS, which we didn't get here in Canada, there isn't any colour that I liked. So I was gonna get black and have it sprayed titanium silver. That way you get to keep the black engine compartment and black door jams and still get the colour you want!! Altho for a Good quality spray it's gonna cost ~6k...

Got Ultramarine, wanted Firestorm originally. Once I saw the Ultramarine in person, in the setting sun of the evening, I knew I'd made the right choice. No regrets at all!

Black rocks....that is all.

It was a tossup between WRB, silver, and black for me. I wound up ordering WRB, but switched it to black the next day. The dealership had a black BRZ (presold) in the detail shop, so I saw it in person..and they had a WRB WRX also, so I was able to compare.

Really wish Subaru had the Lava.

[Liquidsnake]

Its funny to read about people with whiteout envy, when I saw a firestorm, and wanted to trade.

The color of my dad's Ralliart is called 'Rotor Glow'. It's just like Hot Lava. I love it. Hot Lava has my vote.

Normally i don't mind the silver.. but i'm finding it makes the car look like every other car out there. Wish I would have gone with the Hot Lava that was also available.

I think the same way.. Although Silver is a great color.. My 05 tC was Silver and my 01 SLK320 was silver .. Black is just well.. so sinister looking. especially when you add a spoiler, fog lights, etc.. I'm still torn between the two colors and I know I don't have to decide right now.. But I do lean towards Silver as theres just too much dust where I live.. I'll be cleaning the car every time I drive down the road from my house.. grrrr!
