Yeap. When I was doing my LED swap in the GC I was originally thinking of just buying a spare one to work on, in case I screwed up. Since the ODO is tied to it tho, no dice.

This year has not been good for my Brz. I finally got her back yesterday after the 3rd time being in for the same damn code. The work order list was long this time. Don't have it in front of me but it ranges from replacement of ECU>cam sprockets>oil safety valves>oil change>car wash... Brz got raped pretty much.

I agree, the car wash is the worst of it. Sorry they put swirl marks on your ride.

Woah, I just drove an automatic FR-S for the first time - manual mode is badass!

My car hadn't been washed in a year (anyone who came to the Summer kickoff meet at Del Valle can confirm that I won the unofficial award for "most spiderwebs") so today was time to get it detailed!

I scheduled an appointment with Maka's Detail in Alameda and left my car for a wash, clay, and IGL Eco Quartz sealant. Here are some photos of the results. Thanks @Kamakanani0!

Damn looks good man. I was trying to schedule an appointment with @Kamakanani0 but couldn't get in contact with him. Ended up going to Auto Salon Works instead and got my car detailed/opticoated on Monday.

Here's a pic afterwards:

Wow, nice reflections! Beautiful.

I originally wanted to get opticoat as well, but couldn't swing the $$$.
