WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY?

I am tired of Satin White Pearl. Aspen White is nice because you can match things with it. SWP is just a pain, I think.

I will admit I REALLY wanted a SWP 2011 WRX sedan. I settled on Dark Gray Metallic (same as my 08 Forester Sports XT), but turns out that color was much more popular than SWP in sedan form. It wasn't until almost two years later that I saw another SWP WRX sedan since all the rest were hatches or STI. Shame.

Although I think early last winter I did drive next to a military guy in a WRB BRZ Limited who was Black. Made me proud! Never saw him again, though. Also there is another Black guy that is military that just picked up a used Silver BRZ Limited. We keep in touch. So far Alaska is the only place I've seen such men in combination with these particular imports.

Finding a Black woman that drives a BRZ would blow my mind.

Yeah, I don't mind. Sometimes, however, it's kinda daunting being unique. haha

Blackvue DR550 dual camera install
Fiddling with the settings of the camera(s) now...

More pics after the wheel/spring install! Also you can see my smoked sides I installed about a month ago. :P







I feel like this one really shows how much of a difference 18" wheels and a 3/4" drop can make.



Overall I'm really happy with how it all looks.

I got my mom set up with a used 09 Forester that she picked up today @ Irvine Subaru (awesome people there...best experience so far). She brought me back a new BRZ license plate frame!

I know, small stuff, but I have been wanting this since I took the badges off and the dealer near me didn't have any. Now people won't have to ask what it is...

Truu story. I searched the interweb like a mofo for pic in US.

Bought more *nice* micro fiber towels for the spoiled thing...

I left my car under the sun for few hours.

Taking off the badge was easy, using "goof off" and micro fiber towel to remove the sticky stuff wasn't. But I love the end result!



the lost letters...


Close up shot.. You can still see some imprints left on the paint.. hopefully it will get smoothed out next time i wax/buff my car.


After all that, I took my car to its natural habitat...


drove my car out to Malibu..started from north end of Mulholland Hwy then got on Latigo Canyon Road.. to Pepperdine University

It was SOOOO fun!!!
I ran into an FR-S, but can't remember which color because I was having so much fun!
