Winter Preparation AHOY!
 

What's up everyone! Just checking to see what everyone is doing to prepare their FR-S for the winter?

So far my plans are to:

-Hankook iPike tires
-3M paint sealant (maybe optiguard before summer)
-weathertech or JDM weather floormats (whichever is better, probably weathertech if it comes out before winter)

I'm also thinking of rustproofing the undercarriage, what do you guys think of this and can you recommend any good places?

Anything else you guys can think of?

thanks!

No ETA on all-weather mats from Subaru, and past experience has been they suck, so I added the rubber mats from Lloyds in the front and trunk, already had her Opti-Guarded, and I'll be putting a set of Goodyear Ultragrip Performance 2's on the stock rims around Thanksgiving.

Make sure you go to Weathertech and make a request for digitalfit floor liners for the FR-S/BRZ (if you haven't already). The more requests the sooner they'll make them.

Use this form to make a product request for digitalfit floor liners.

just requested...

so if you guys had a choice between weathertech or a JDM toyota brand, what would you choose?

How do you like the Lloyds? I ordered the red set, not sure if it's gonna be over the top or not.

-Waiting til after winter to lower it
-Falken snow tires
-Rally Armour mud flaps (for winter only)
-Opti-coat

1) Insulated Garage, Car Cover, Fuel Stabilizer, Jack Stands, some kitty litter/oil dry on the garage floor


2) Drive WRX

:thumbup:

Jack stands under the suspension I'm assuming?

I'll typically leave the suspension unloaded, held up under the main structural rails.

I like them, they fit very well. I'd have preferred to get the ones from WeatherTech, and may yet once they're available, but didn't want to get caught in the snow without something.

Cool. What color did you get?
