Grrrrr. Don't rub it in!

It's slated to arrive two weeks from today, 4/10, Carl, and then it goes to Premier that Friday for clear bra. We'll definitely have to tag-team around the hills soon thereafter!

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Are you getting the PPF and ceramic coating? Premier is the place to go.

Yes, the question now is how much PPF and what coating--the stuff Premier uses (Max Protect UNC-R) or CQuartz from Jeff at Immaculate Reflections. I talked to him today and he was very helpful and informative. Thanks for pointing me his way.

Yep, he is a great guy. That offer to drive you out to Brentwood (or Fremont, for that matter) stands.

After many hours of excruciating install, it's finally complete. I'm very pleased with the results !

Agreed, this armrest is terrific! Very natural feeling, it's what Subaru should have done. Why is Carsmo discontinuing it?!

Lack of interest, from what I can tell. This thread had been dead for a year, and there were no posts in the archives on these armrests for quite a while before that. Which is nuts because they are clearly the best solution to a dumb problem. Extremely nice of Ray and his partner Tim to undertake this run for us. I'm very pleased and grateful.

And a shout out goes to the OP, sroby, who helped me get in touch with Ray to plead our case. Thanks again, Steve!

Yeah I think it was the price point that put a lot of people off on it, as there are a lot of cheap armrests on eBay/amazon. Which sucks because this is by far the best armrest out there. You get a storage spot, get to keep your cupholders, it looks like it could be OEM, and is the perfect height (for me anyway)
