There is a nice do it yourself one on ina rd right in front of hooters. It has a blow dryer to get the crevices. They accept cresit or debit as well. I go there every week. Its a bit far for you though

I go to metro car wash on speedway west of craycroft, south side of the road. They've been good to me, have a 7 day free rewash policy, and other than the Sunday manager insisting my car is too low to go in the wash (after having been through a dozen times) they're great.

Paint match the GT-86 badge and put it on the vinyl. I think it'd look pretty cool.

What to do today to the car? I'm thinking of either LED strip or angel eyes in the headlight w/ paint job of course. Anyone know a good brand of lighting?

On the N.E. corner of Tucson Blvd. and Grant is a hand wash car wash. They're the only ones that touch my car. I wouldn't say they're great but I would give them an above average.

Go Oracle or go home! Actually I dont know if they do lighting for our cars yet, but their lighting for my truck(F250) is pretty sick! I have some halos and strips laying around the house from superbrightled.com for a project Im working on but Ive never actually turned them on yet,still working on the mounting plate. If you decide to open your headlights lmk I have some interest in that myself sometime,but not til my wheels arrive(color matching!) You have a DGM also right? What color would you paint?

On side note at least you guys with motorcycles no longer require emissions. So that's a plus.

Nice Jeff, my first bike was a 96 FZR 600.

I wish more of you guys had bikes. We NEED to do a ride. I can't possibly be the only one with a bike. I've been looking for people with bikes since I got here.

In my garage I have a 1976 CB360J. Completely rebuilt it with my Grandpa in his shop when I was just 16! He raced them and ran a motorcycle shop for years. About 3 years ago I blew a valve on it and Ive been unable to find new ones since. Still blows my mind what a great running engine that was from way back then! Even if it was DEAFENING!! I cant remember how many times I would start it up and within 20 minutes a sheriff would be prowling around looking for the source of many noise complaints.. Ahhh great memories!
On a BRZ related topic, now that I pulled my silencers out of the exhaust, the lady across the driveway from me comes out and glares at me every time I leave in the evening. At first I thought it was circumstantial, but now Im convinced its some wierd psychological intimidation attempt. I just smile and politely rev my engine a couple extra times as I make my way to the gate.. yeah, Im a bad boy..
