Yes holding down the selection on the screen saves both the radio and the xm. Remember tho that you can hit the XM select button more than once and get 3 different sets of saved stations! I believe the radio does the same thing....(Three sets of saved stations)

Nivaku · 09-11-2014, 12:05 AM

So I hold the preset button for 2 seconds right?

What about the favorites menu so I can see all the stations stored?

Thanks for the help!

Is anyone experiencing gap issues with the rear under-spoilers on their car? My passenger side under-spoiler doesn't fit flush on the corner (towards the rear bumper). Car is 7 weeks old with 1300 miles BTW.

Passenger Side :

Compared to Driver Side :

I spoke to my local Subaru dealership, and they said they need to speak to SOA for details on how to handle this. Hoping they won't shaft me and deny me warranty work...

I think someone said these parts were dealer installed. I had paint cracking just above my front lip and the dealer took care of it.

Settle down? I did my STI in Stealth and it didn't need to "settle down".

It will vary GREATLY from shop to shop and state to state. I had my STI done at Xpel HQ in San Antonio. It was $5K but they also had to create the patterns for most of the car while it was there adding to the labor charge.

In case you were wondering how the rear side under spoiler is installed.

I know my dealership had to play around with the screws because they had to drill the holes so maybe they didn't follow the template exactly.
Looks like it's just some adhesive holding it down.

They are installed at the dealership so I would start with them.
Let us know how it goes.

Here is what mine look like.

Mine have a bit of a gap too. It looks like they use existing holes and just clip in but I'm going to play with mine and see what I can do to tighten them up a bit. The radius on the skirt definitely doesn't match the bumper very well.

Edit: Now that I've looked at the instructions I'll bet they didn't prep the area where the tape holds correctly. I'm hoping it's just that they didn't peel the tape cover at all and I can fix it the easy way. If not, I'll pull the entire piece, clean off the tape residue and redo the installation with either Norton or 3M body tape and 3M adhesion promoter. They'll NEVER let go after that.

Thanks for the instructions and reference picture. I'll update this thread as soon as I hear from my dealer (Serramonte Subaru).

Let us know how your re-install goes.

Anybody had problems with the ride height of the Series.Blue yet? I just got mine about a week ago and am super scared to go to places where there are speed bumps. How is the stock height (with the OEM aero kit) compared to other "lowered" BRZs? Should it be fine with most bumps?

I can't make it up most driveways

Have to at an angle up pretty much all the others

Speed bumps are fine though.

has anyone used any wheel spacers to give their wheels a more flush look? If so what works best?

Yeah, I got Eibach spacers, 20mm front, 25mm rear.

I paired it up with Eibach Pro-kit as well for a subtle drop. Looks good.
