Finally.
Magical moment of freedom that only a BRZ lover will appreciate.

I bought some Rally Armors a while back. I just got around to installing them.

I'm glad I chose the Blue on Black. It goes well with WRB

Yesterday I put the FRS mudflaps on my BRZ! I know a lot of people will say "blah blah, mud flaps don't belong on sports cars" but come talk to me when you have paint chips all over the bottom of your car

Installation was rough at first, to be honest. I thought "how hard can it be? it's mudflaps for god's sake." Yeah, well the instructions leave a lot to be desired. Super easy once you figure it out, though!

They don't look half as bad as I anticipated. In fact I think they make the car look kinda fun and sporty (I mean... even moreso than it normally is).

But yay, my first "mod"!

Looks nice with the Spec B wheels... if you need a spare One I have one in the box but used out in my garage.... had a set previously..and had the spare.. then sold the set and forgot I had the spare....

Gave her the final wash of the year before putting her into storage for all of January . Will be traveling in Asia so hoping to bring back some STI goodies for her when I get back.

Thank you. I appreciate the offer. Just a winter set, so I should be fine.

Not really. I was expecting I might but acceleration/agility were unaffected.. just sticks a little better. Not bad for a set of wheels I had laying around.

Took her through a car wash to get the salt off...ugh, those damn curtain washers banging on the side of the car freaked the sh*t out of me! All is well though...and now we're shiny and salt free.

:o you took your car through those old school car washes? The only thing that's allowed to have direct contact with my exterior is air and water. nothing else!
