I have created a DIY thread for any of you who want brighter Boomerang running lights on the BRZ. Here's a link.

Teaser shot of the finished headlights... A keen eye would take note of the turn signal.

Shit, I left my keen eye at home! Glad you're finally getting it all in a thread. Much cleaner than the Z or the Lance...I mean Evo.

But it's missing 400 wheel hp...

Wanted to put up a quick update regarding the sidemarkers. I finally got them painted and installed today.

The paint is 80% clear, 20% color matched with pearl, two coats applied.

Overexposed, but the best I could get my iPhone to do.

The boomerangs are awesomely bright...

APR Brake Ducts installed in the front bumper. I'll have a post detailing the results of the headlight conversion soon.

Installing on Monday:
Rear LCAs
Whiteline Front Control Arm Inner Rear bushings
APR Backing Plates and Hoses

Tuesday, wheels are going on with an alignment and the necessary clearancing for the fenders.

The blackout work on headlights turned out real nice good job.

KelvinBRZ · 02-01-2014, 12:13 AM

FINALLY!!!! The rear LCAs were installed today and the wheels and tires mounted. I have some more work that needs to be done in the rear to clear the tires.

A huge thanks to Forrest and Kyle of Texas Track Works. This is the second time I've brought a car to them to roll the fenders and align the car. It's obvious they take pride in their work and it shows in the quality. If you're in the area, look them up. http://texastrackworks.com/
