Not BRZ content, but my car officially got "out-cooled" by my fiance's car. Just got back from the wrap shop.

As a SF Giants fan I almost wouldn’t mind doing this color with my BRZ. Looks pretty nice. Any idea what it cost?

Was about $4k all in. We went nuts and had a lot of the car disassembled to make sure there are no gaps or seams. Turned out perfect.

When I got my WRX in 2012 I was kicking myself because only a few months after I bought the car that limited edition orange version came out and I was super jealous... I was a season ticketholder at the time too.

Whoa, $4k.. yeahhhh someday.. It does look super clean from the photos you posted, though, so I'm sure the high cost was worth it.

Haha that sucks. It's situations like that where I wonder if there should be a better trade-in program for cars if you want to do a swap within a few months of buying new.. but that'd never work because depreciation.

Yeah it was a lot more than your typical place, but we wanted it done right. Too many stories of knife marks in the paint when you peel it off several years later, etc. The car had only a couple hundred miles on it when we brought it over last week, so didn't want anything to be messed up.

She actually had an orange '13 4 door that got totaled back in November after getting hit by a box truck on the highway. She loved the orange, and overall loved that car more than she loves me lol. I looked around for another '13, but every single one I could find either had a ton of miles or was heavily molested, so we decided on the new '18. It's hard to pass up employee pricing anyways. So we basically replicated "Garfield" after he went to that big race track in the sky.

I love the hex color codes. That's brilliant.

Another reason why I can't wait to deploy.... That hazard pay tho

Installed OEM under panels...I have to say, using the Quickjacks for this was not the best choice for the job, fought with them the whole time...had to play musical jack stands.

HeresMyMind · 02-03-2018, 02:50 PM

I installed a Q300 catback and a motive straight pipe front pipe. The sound is perfect. No drone even for going with a careless/resonatorless front pipe.

I highly recommend it!
