Haven't posted my 2 month old Valentis, but today I installed my Grimm Speed hood struts. Compliments the tow hook license plate mount nicely I think



Valentis

Tuned down exposure:

They're definitely red. Not pink or however they look in photos, it's the perfect illumination and tone of color. In daylight they're black as sin and gorgeous.

Got them from ModBargains.com
I assume these are the black/red? Do you plan to buy the Valenti reverse light?

I did a double take on that too, it's just part of the design.

No plan for the reverse light. Installed LED's in there and they work pretty well.

Took my BRZ for its first dealership service (oil change, etc.)

I also asked them to program my car so that when I press the unlock button once, it'll unlock both doors simultaneously.

For anyone who wants to do this, here's the description of the service to ask your dealers for.

Does this work for the Limited touch handle unlock also? It's so annoying when I unlock my side of the car with touch and have to hit the unlock button on the door for my wife.

Maybe I should just always open her door first... Haha.
