Yeah I keep reading it as "BRZ Transsexual Parts".

Correction: Yuki's reply reads "more than 1 month". Grrrrrr

Actually this is most likely true. It was this way when I bought my STi muffler. They needed to receive a number of orders before assembling all at once. It's more cost effective for them to do it this way since the overall production numbers is so low.

After I read "more than 1 month" I realized his idea was probably right and that you are too. I asked Yuki if they could separate my order since I ordered all the STI bits minus suspension and I don't want to have them waiting on a limited edition fender garnish. I already got my flat black interior pieces and I want the tS gloss black ones to compare and have paint-matched if possible. Plus my STI badges are in that order as well as a scarf. Mmmmm scarf...

Well, it's basically that idea of, "If they don't currently make something you want, then build it yourself." There is no USDM BRZ tS, so we're relegated to building our own. Plus it's admiration.

We need some vtec stickers. Those make your d grow.

Keep being sorry. We'll still do it coz we can, we love it, and don't see anything as out of place because of how we see this branding in a unified way much different than how people like you see it. Must suck to not be a part of the JDM/OEM+ BRZ mafia. :p

To each their own. I love my OEM+ BRZ parts on my car. Turbo badge? Subaru makes those? I want one!:bonk:

Okay guys, I got more specific info from Yuki concerning my order. I'm sharing because anyone else looking at tS parts should know this as well.

Dear Chano,

Thank you so much for your reply. I’ve just talked to Subaru/STi Japan about your order and found it out some more information. Fender Garnish and rear ornament will be here Feb 19th which is one more week and all the other parts are already at there office. However, 484-036-009 (PANEL, VENTILATOR GRILLE) takes more than 1 month. Please let me know how you want me to send out the parts to you.


Yours sincerely,

Yuki

I'm having Yuki send everything once the fender garnish and rear ornament are in stock. I'm not holding up an entire order for the vent rings! :bonk: Those will just get backordered.

I hope this info helps anyone else looking at the fender garnish that hasn't had theirs ship yet.

Out for delivery today on mine.

And to the other person posting about being lame for throwing on badges and whatnot, no one here is criticizing your decision for a gas cap vinyl. To each their own.

I love my gas cap vinyl!
