Hey, if anyone else has a set of PP or preferably Series Yellow wheels, I would defiantly be interested. I bought this car (a manual) to teach my 15 year old son how to really drive. So many of these new cars are completely numb and just about drive themselves. And we wonder why there are so many bad drivers on the road. That being said, I'm a little nervous about teaching him to drive in this car, and a lot nervous about his first track day without a spare set of wheeles and tires. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Do you have any more closer-up pics of the front lip? I saw your one picture and it looked alright but not quite what I'm thinking of.

Depending on how it is I might just go aftermarket for it. (still a super long ways off from that though)

The backing on the black emblems is a template from what I've seen, so you just line it up and put them on.

It's also a lot easier to remove the badges when the car is new. I was able to just pull them off with my fingers and none of the tape was left stuck to the car.

You mean something like this? Because it seems to just be a regular OEM black BRZ badge (I'm only making the letters black, not the actual Subaru emblem).

I dunno if the one from ft86SF just doesn't have it pictured or if it doesn't come with it.

Ah, interesting.

In any case I'll probably try plasti-dip first. Seems crazy to spend $80+ on just an emblem replacement.

Placed my order yesterday for a white BRZ PP. Current VON shows 3/15. Fingers crossed it comes earlier!

You have to purchase the "Subaru" and the "BRZ" separately at FT86SF.

Ah. Well, I'll probably just try plasti-dip first and depending on how well it holds up I'll decide later if I need to just buy actual emblems instead.

yes I do track the car, and yes the stock calipers are fine for my class (just upgraded pads and fluid)... but fuck I want that bling! besides, no way am I going to the dealership to buy the Brembos lol. I'm having a hard time deciding over the AP or RR kit. AP is only front but shaves off the most weight and best received in the track enthusiast crowd. I can't deny that I want a rear kit just for the looks so it matches the front though... lol
