What cleaning products are you using on your wheels? I wonder if the finish is sensitive to certain chemcals... I haven't had anything happen yet but will definitely keep a close eye out now.

Havn't driven much, no nothing more than water at this point. I do live in Canada, but the salt is long gone off the roads. It's only in that one spot amongst all the rims, if it were a cleaner doing that I'd expect near the lips of the rims to be doing that too.

Hmm..
I guess we'll all just have to wait and see if it happens to more of us. Hopefully scion didn't cut corners on the finish. Definitely post some pics when you can.

Thumbs up Add me to the list

I got #683 a couple months ago, just found this site. I'm in Annapolis, MD and think I saw another RS 2.0 in DC one day.

Picked up the RS 2.0 last night, and got straight to work.

So I have noticed one of mine today is doing this as well. I will be going to the dealership. I have never used anything other then soap and water on them.

Disappointed.

I know there is very little hope before I even ask, but...

I've been looking at some FRS-specific stuff, like the TRD shoulder pads and some TRD neck rests... only to find that nearly everything I find is in black/red or just black/black. Black/black would be fine, but has anyone else been able to find JDM or official Toyota stuff with camel accents to fit the 2.0's interior?

It looks like some limited edition JDM BRZ models, as well as a new facelifted trim will carry similar colors, but there isn't too much info on what that trim will be. I am also struggling with the limitations of not being able to use red trim to match the interior.
