TrevorsTII's 2015 Crystal Black Silica Brz
 

Hello, My name is Trevor (28) I own this ScooBRZ and do grip related stuff and things. Originally a rotor-head. This is my first piston engine car ever. I grew up owning a many eco-friendly cars. Moved to this just so I didn't get banned from the US for failing every emissions test known to mankind.

Previous cars -

1981 Mazda Rx7 GSL-SE swapped with a 12A-T
1987 Mazda Rx7 Turbo II with 430whp
1988 Mazda Rx7 SE Base - The clean daily
2004 Mazda Rx8 GT that was a readers ride in SuperStreet.

Sold all of them but the Turbo TII and Rx8 before joining the military back in 2006. Had big plans for the rx7 but was too busy so passed it on to a live a new life. So kept the rx8 and autoX'd/track day'd it religiously awarding me the 2013 Salina region STX solo champion. We parted ways in 2014 unfortunately and then decided to try the BRZ.

Car looks good man! How is the fitment on that CF spoiler from ModBargains? I have been on the fence about purchasing it.

Thanks!

Thanks, it actually wasn't as bad as i was anticipating. I really like the style of it and also was sketchy about getting it. I heard mixed reviews about the company but just decided that if it didn't fit proper I would just mold it into the trunk. It required no shaving and after I taped it all off and placed the 3M adhesive there was only 2 small areas where if you were looking hard enough you can tell it wasn't fitted perfectly. I am very happy with it though.

The RPF1's look good. Always loved the way they looked on s2ks and the FRS/BRZ is no exception. Did you have to roll the fenders? Any fitting issues-rubbing on the fender liners?

I have exact same tires on my wedssports and I'm lowered 2 inches all around without any rubbing issues, even at hard cornering.

Actually, I was rubbing pretty good. I did have to roll the front and rear and pull the fronts. I cut the fender lining a little too to keep from rubbing under load.

Your Weds must be a higher offset.

Mine are +35 offset, same as yours. Your car might be a bit lower which is why it was rubbing. It might also be the alignment, i'm running -2.5 camber up front and -3 out back.
