That sucks, but honestly it looks like one of two things, he either ran a stop sign, or got merged into... Sucks either way. Of note the fender collapsed more than I would have expected, I thought the pillars were UHSS? that doesn't look like it.

Hmmm... something fishy here. It seems that this is a premium one (no fog light) but it also has the spoiler (limited option). I wonder if the owner just got the spoiler separately..

But damn.. another BRZ. I wonder how that will play out with the insurance rate..

Must be one of the trunk swap guys! Or maybe he bought it and installed it...


It's very likely that it is somebody from the forums...

I can't help but think that these fender vent things look like the cheapy ones i see at Wal-Mart. Not that the quality is low, but that the very application of fender vents is kind of "cheesy." Am i alone here? Additionally, i'm not being deliberately provocative-- i mean no disrespect.

Indeed! Thin multi-spoke wheels have always been a favorite.

It's a widely held opinion that fake fender vents are "teh suck" so it's not just you. It'd be interesting to see if turning them into real vents (without) ducting provides any cooling or if something more is needed. Conversely, I'd also be interested in seeing if they're not useful at all, even when vented.
