What I hope to do is be able to run the halos with the headlights and be able to turn the fogs on as well. I've also thought about using an OEM Impreza fog switch as a toggle. Meaning I could turn on the halos at will
Still working through it in my head though.

Yep. The adapter came with the kit. I haven't checked with parts yet to see if it's available stateside.

Mike at Holdcroft. He's a super cool guy. I've been working with him for a while now. He can tailor fit the shipping to the US pretty cheaply. I'm working to see if he can get us more of the Euro-ish parts.

They are just like the SPT decals here - http://www.subarugenuineparts.com/pr...oducts_id=1711
Yes, please! See if he can get us LHD BRZ floor mats with the red and/or blue stitching!

Already tried brother. They are only available in RHD as of now to the UK. The German and French Dealers haven't responded to my messages as of yet either. Meh.

Latest run of rice mods that came in the boxes above

UKDM Subaru Carbon Fiber Look Mirror Covers:








I'll snap some better pics of them installed, weather permitting. These are what you would expect of an Ebay mirror overlay and not so much from an OEM part but overall I am happy with the fit and finish.

I am still on the hunt for the old school STi Fuel Cap Cover but have come up empty handed as of yet.

Carbon fiber looks nice when contrasted. I'm not into it on black cars (or dark gray metallic). Very nice!

JDM STi Shark Fin Antenna

Is this plug and play? Yes, it shares the same harness.

Does it keep all of the functionality of the USDM BRZ? No, it doesn't have the Sat Radio Antenna.

So if you use this it will "fit" and plug in but it won't be 100%.



















I'm not 100% with this one yet. It's quite a bit larger than the Legacy antenna. It's gonna have to grow on me or I might swap it out.

Did you really only purchase ONE oil filter? I always planned on at least 4 at a time just because of the price, shipping, less hassle for later.

Yep, I did. It was more of a "completion" for me to have the engine bay as pink as possible. I don't know that I will consistenly use the STi filters as they are three to four times the cost of a comparable filter.

If I do decide to stick with the STi filters then I will see about ordering them in larger numbers.
