Tune by Delicious at Mann.

Will BRZ · 07-20-2019, 07:55 PM

Picked up from the dealership for the 30,000 mile service and transmission pan gasket replacement. Got a lot of things changed. The car does not feel brand new by any means, but I did feel a difference in the brakes and transmission. So overdue that the advisor told me to just get spark plugs changed at 60,000 and nothing else lol

Now that maintenance is taken care, I can focus on some mods

Cracked the windshield--didn't even make it a full week.

Stray bouncing rock caught it at the very bottom and the ding morphed into a 10" split a few seconds later.

I knew I should have bought a Honda.

better the windshield than the area where the windshield meets the roof. had a nasty rust chip there i had to sand off with a pen and use touch up paint on. i hadnt seen rust like that on a newer car in CA before really.

LOL, funny because I wanted my car in white but they didn’t have one, so choice was red, black or grey, and since I always had red I just stuck to red again.

I specifically wanted white. Can't remember the reason, but now I wish I would've bought it with some color lol I LOVE my CWP. I love the fact that damn near any wheel color/finish works with it. But if I could do it again, I'd definitely go with red or WRB. Maybe on the next one

Did my first test fit. Studs were too short, so I ordered ARP extended wheel studs (and the special tool to make that job easier). Widebody will be in next week. 2 weeks out from that install and it's going to the shop for a tint Thursday. Lot of stuff happening fast.

Clips are the same as the OEM and they fit very snug.
LED does not match the headlight DRLs 100% but its perfectly fine with me.

It's all about the details. Looking good!

I also live on the Alabama Gulf Coast and my Honda Civic windshield has cracked whereas my BRZ windshield hasn’t

Stupid side marker "A" clips came off. This is really pissing me off already. I just purchased these new Helix LED markers and the came loose after the first drive.
I just emailed 86speed venting

Yesterday, but installed the Verus ducktail

Yesterday, while I was driving on freeway 290 (Houston) a tire piece flew to my car from a pickup truck and my front bumper has scratches. In fact the impact was so bad my license plate was bent and the front grill was pushed back and I had to pull it to keep it locked. There is a portion of grill broken.

I hate to see scratches, how do I fix it? I think grill can be glued.

Here are the pictures:

TBH, you're probably going to have to re-paint it...

RToyo86 · 07-26-2019, 03:12 PM

Looks pretty deep. It will need to be sanded, filled and resprayed.
