Some product I used: Carpro Iron X Chemical Guys Diablo Gel Chemical Guys New Car Shine Premium Dressing Jescar Power Lock Plus Sealent Also installed WeatherTech floormats and the door cup and edge film while the paint was clean. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...27faef1314.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...eda5d9264e.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c28ee37a81.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7e87128070.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bd1f16e8c3.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b14ad7be14.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...73efe8270a.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5a908dd812.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...800c7100e6.jpg |

LED License Plate Light 7.20.2017
Installed LED license plate bulbs.
These bulbs are not the brightest, maybe even on the dimmer side. They are dimmer than the LEDs that Phillips makes. But, I like it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ab31ba9b3c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ffbcf32c5b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...927e5ba098.jpg |
Diode Dynamics SmartTap 8.1.2017
Installed DD's SmartTap Flasher Reply that replaces the factory one.
I got it mainly for the one tap feature for lane changes. The other features are bonuses. Getting the factory reply out was a real struggle but I managed with a flat head from the back. The departure lights works but the arrival lights do not. At the time of installation, I e-mailed them and Diode Dynamics knows that arrival light feature does not work on 2017 cars. Kinda bummed. It would be so cool if it worked. Not sure if they came out with a fix... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3f4d87c932.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c994472e98.jpg |
Window Tint August???
Sometime in August and before the road trip to Canada I got my windows tinted at Winner's Window Tint in Rockville.
I should have gone with a darker tint. There was just a big jump from legal to illegal percentage. |
Road Trip to Canada 8.20.2017
Went on a road trip to Quebec to meet family.
The car drove great. The only discomfort I felt was with my shoulders. Due to the bolsters, my shoulders got sore from not being able to lay flat. But, this only happened after like 6 hours of straight driving. Really not that bad. Caught a whole bunch of bugs on my front bumper and sap juice on the car from parking under a sap soaked tree in Canada. I don't have much phone pictures because my canoe of two other friends capsized at Black Hill and my HTC got toasted a week before. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a68682384f.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...39325ddb56.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...dafa028ec9.jpg |
Lowering Springs! 8.22.2017
Installed RaceComp's Yellow Springs for the 86.
I didn't measure how much exactly it dropped but in the end it looks so so so much better. I fell in love with the car all over again. Regarding ride quality, I can't tell you the difference...I kinda feel rides a tiny tiny bit stiffer? Or is it just my imagination? After the springs are put on, you can visually see the increased camber in rear. Not that big of a deal to me though. May need LCA later down the road. Really want wheels though. Honestly, this is the best thing that happened to the 86 this far.

Induction Hose 7.1.2018
Installed Mishimoto Induction Hose.
Only struggle was with removing the PVC tube. Also, factory clamp for the PVC tube is just too small somehow so I switched it out with a different one. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...408d3bc18d.jpg Before: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...38a9ad66c5.jpg After: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9788bbcb4b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0c96d0aa3b.jpg |
Fog Light Tint 7.4.2018
Installed yellow fog light tints. Did not expect to look this good.

OpenFlash Tablet 7.14.2018
Got my OpenFlash Tablet today. Can't wait to try out Stage 1 and then 2 soon.

OpenFlash Header v1 8.11.2018
Installed the OpenFlash headers v1. There is quite a sound difference than what I've read. Right around 2k the rumble is super audible and I really like it. I think it's a little more powerful overall. I'm more excited about the louder sound it gave the 86 than the power gains. Also, the stock header is surprisingly heavy.

H&R Trak+ Wheels Spacers 8.17.2018
Installed 20mm and 25mm pairs of wheels spacers from H&R. I brought them used but they were pretty beat.
Gives the 86 a very flush fitment. Not used to the look at first but we'll see. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...50477f7197.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...6be50b2e6b.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ab410ca399.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...bd59170695.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5692cc8bbb.jpg |
I think some spoiler risers will look awesome. Love the 860 bro.

Helix Clear Side Marker 8.24.2018
Installed Helix's clear side markers from another member of the forum. It is also paired with Sylvania 194 cool white LEDs. Condition of them weren't the greatest but its not that visible. The non-orange color of the side markers really gave the 86 a better look.

20% Sun Strip 9.29.2018
Installed sun stripe tint. UltimaCool DUO 20% tint.
Brought it precut for 13-16 Scion FRS thinking it would be the same but actually the mirror cut out is different so I had to make my own cuts. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...637e7c0fa3.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...10ce588ed7.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c00378d249.jpg |
Sound Clips OFH v1 8.12.2018 + 10.21.2018
Here are some sound clips after the install of the Open Flash Header v1 and pop tune. Everything header back is stock.

OLM TR Style Front Bumper Skirt Cover 8.22.2019
Installed the OLM TR Style Lip on the 86. Fitment was very tight so I had to really stretch the bumper over the bumper. I didn't peel off any of the backings for the adhesive stripes that came on the lip. There is a little gap on the right side of the lower portion highlighted in one of the pics below. It could probably be eliminated had I used the adhesive. Other than that, I cut the weather stripping a little too long which I will fix later.
