Are BRZ .Blue Edition parts easily removable?
Hey guys. So I'm mulling the idea of getting a .Blue edition BRZ. Trouble is, while I personally like the blue interior, I am not a fan of the black wheels or the side skirts. Obviously the wheels are easily rectified down the road. My question is, are the side skirts and perhaps those rear spats simply stick-on parts that can be easily removed without any left-over... holes or whatnot? Or are they actually screwed into the body and irreversible? I know they are installed at the dealership after delivery, so that makes me think they are probably just "stickers" that can be removed, but I don't know.

You could just ask the dealer to not install them.

the rear spats have 2 screws, 1 plastic clip, and some double sided tape holding them on. the side skirts look to have a couple of screws and tape holding them but have not looked underneath yet.

Gah. (This is in reference to a vehicle already assembled on the lot.)

Well you could ask the dealer to remove them as a condition of the sale

Ya, I wouldn't ask the dealer to remove them upon sale UNLESS of course they give me the parts... They better not keep that. Those OEM pieces are worth a bit, even the wheels.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a Limited on discount, and buy the blue seats from the dealer?

So I looked at the car. Also confirmed with the tech who installed them. Was told they are easily removable. Looks like they screw in underneath and on the ends and have adhesive behind them. Doesn't look like anything that affects the sheet metal. This is good.

Why not just buy a Premium? and forget about a Series.Blue? The price difference is essentially the price of the skirts and rims...
