Alpine's Boosted BRZ Thread

Hello everyone this is my build thread for my now boosted BRZ. I have heaps of fun in this car as it sits at 300whp. My previous cars include a 2005 350z, and 2010 Hyundai Genesis, and a 2007 BMW 335i. I can say with certainty that this is the most fun car that I have had out of all of those even prior to adding a turbo. I love how this car looks and I hope to only make it look even better with the mods I install. With that being said I plan to make my car have a more track oriented stance, and later on a more track oriented look that will still be normal enough for the street since I daily drive my car.

Thanks for looking!

Pictures will be from my phone unless they are from a shoot.

Currently how it sits

So I Picked up the car in Boston, Ma


Here I am on the drive home to Maine (my stepmom's camera is terrible I know)


Interior shot (stock)


Decided to wrap my interior in Suede/Alcantara to match the center of my seats





As the car was from Mass. it had a front license plate, as you Florida peeps know we don't need one down here, so I am currently having the holes filled from the butcher job they did on my front bumper.



Painted some of my interior trim pieces black (will post better shots later)


Red nightshade on my tails, I'm not a big fan of clear tail lights
OMG SNOW!!



They still need to go through another round of wet-sanding and buffing to get them super clear.

Random plug for my AWESOME DRL's



Got my front lip from Bayson R, For a urethane front lip I've never heard of one being so straight and not all warped


Removed my BRZ Limited spoiler to replace it with a TRD style one




Edit #1: Got my Front bumper and Trunk + Spoiler back!

NO MORE UGLY HOLES!!!


TRD Style Spoiler


Got some goodies in the mail!








All this snow is making me miss Miami






This also showed up today!





Painted my reflectors to get rid of that nasty amber



Installed my own 12v port to plug in my radar detector



Here is what my car looked like on my drive from Maine to Miami





How my car was sitting after I raised it up for the ride down



Tomei 80r Instal done!



Perrin Shift Knob


LED License plate lights


Wrapped my gauge hood in suede


Muteki Closed ended lug nuts, blue


20% Tints

Sweet! Good to know the TRD spoiler covers the holes.
Did you need to drill new ones or do they mount in the already present holes?

Any chance to eventually get a video of the Tomei exhaust? Car is looking pretty clean. I like.

That Tomei exhaust is beautiful. Great looking BRZ! Have you thought about some wheel spacers so that the stock wheels will be flush?
