Yeah i came to this revelation while i couldn't sleep lastnight. Im getting the strut bar done in purple. And everything under the hood will be purple or carbon fiber.

If i can get it done before Friday that would be even better.

As for the interior and exterior there will be no purple. Just chrome and black. I also found my new project.

I am boosting my car, and i can directly tell you who NOT to go through. As well as another few people in this thread that have had simliar experiences with a popular tuner.

G2 makes purple caliper paint. I actually have a spare kit left over from my last car. Mix in a little HoK anodized metal and you've got anoidized purple calipers!

Nope black with white letters. And I am going to do the 4 pot/2pot calipers from Subaru. especially since its just a caliper/pad exchange for about 100 a caliper. The remanufactured calipers do not have the subaru raised letters which allows me to get a SCION decal and place it on there.

I was going to do red but chose not to for 2 reasons:
-Everyone will be doing or already did red.
-After i get the seat covers and the strut bar done I wont have any more red on the car.

Then I looked into purple but too out there for me on the exterior wise.

And then I looked into white with black letters and figured it would clash since my wheels are on the lighter color.

I plan to just use simple black G2 caliper paint.

You have had issues with the self-proclaimed master of FRS/BRZ EcuTek tuning? I'm really curious what problems you had with this person..

Hah... HAHAHAHHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. shit i need a break from laughing. Simply put: avoid at all cost. I will be posting further details after an expected call from the master him self after a 30 minute phone call with his assistant, and a combined count of 50-80 emails, pms, and support tickets. I'll likely be posting all of them online once I am done. I tried to keep most of it in emails etc so that way there was written record of everything and the chaos involved with un-mentioned tuner.

I know i could be over-reacting a bit but there are certain standards that should apply to any merchant, and anyone that holds the safety of your car. However due the the mass following of hate it looks like i am just one of many. I however refuse to suck up just to get what I want like others do. I paid money, I souldn't have to beg and plead and praise a false deity.
