RH Tail Light replacement via condensation recall.

Apparently it's just a gasket but I mentioned it to the dealership and they just straight up ordered a light.

No. I took that off today, cap was from when I put intake on w sound tube delete. Every ounce counts bro, a few ounces here n a few there starts equalling pounds real quick.

Squeezed in 4 tires (225/45R17) and 4 rims (all unmounted and in their boxes - 17x8) into the trunk and passenger compartment.
One of the rims is riding shotgun with me.

Cargo capacity is not the BRZ's strong suit.

Unless I'm mistaken, this implies we might see the RSR Nurburg GT86 in the game.

What someone else did to my BRZ today..

Rear ended me in morning commute traffic on the 405. Driver claimed that he fell asleep behind the wheel. Some people these days..

He came at me at about 20-30mph. Surprisingly these cars can take a rear end pretty well, and I walked out safe and sound!

So this is my first accident ever in all my 6 years of driving. What's the comprehensive policy for aftermarket mods totaling to ~$200?

Guarantee 'fell asleep' is the #1 excuse when the person was actually texting.

When my BRZ was rear ended, USAA completely replaced my invidia n1 exhaust which came out to around $700. Not sure if it's different for other insurance companies. Best of luck!

Definitely want to check with your insurance company on your policy. I think a number come with $1k coverage of aftermarket parts. I specifically asked for a little upgrade on mine.

Put in a K&N air filter. Did not notice any difference. Will gain 10hp when I register it and get my free sticker.

I put in a filter, not K&N but from WORKS. Don't notice it different except the lower RPMs were more responsive.

I'd like to see how your lights turn out!

What kind of paint are you using?

Planning on doing this soon, just trying to build up the courage to do so. lol

I am using @GrimmSpeed's WRB for the boomerang, dupli-color Shadow Chrome for the blinker reflector, and some last minute shopping for a metallic black for everything else.
