How are your wheels with that spacer? after the coilover install I took my spacers off, but found out the hard way that they rub at full lock on the rod arm.

Anyone with a SWP BRZ want a FR-S bumper with JDM Fogs? I'm willing to drive up to Chicago area to swap noses.

Edit: needs to be a brz bumper w/foglight housings

They work perfect, enough clearance at full lock not to rub anything and small enough that you don't need extended lugs

i usually don't run into BRZs as often, but today I saw three...

- Grey one going down NW Hwy (looked like he was texting so he didn't see me waving lol)

- Black one off of the Golf Rd. exit off of 53S

- Blue one in the Woodfield Nordstrom parking garage parked 2 spots down from me w/a Napleton Schaumburg plate frame

Hey guys, not really my area of the forum but I'm hitting Chitown this weekend for a week. I'm picking up tickets to wrigley for the Dodgers v Cubs game Sat and will be staying in Skokie. Anyone have any good ideas of what else I should be doing/seeing? Thanks for any help you can give me.

I dont have anything major planned. Maybe an intake and/or exhaust. That's probably about it. Do you know if there is a meet of some sort in Chicago land area currently?
