WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY? - Page 340 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I got my plates yesterday, as well. Pick up my sunshade from the dealer that I got for free and ordered some WRB touch up paint, always good to have handy.

I also installed my Helix smoked side markers. Fitment is pretty good and tight. If you order a set, be sure to lightly sand down the front facing edge of the lens, where it was taken out of the mold. My pair still had high spots. If not sanded, you could potentially scratch the paint in the recess of the bumper where the marker goes. I love the cleaned up look!

I was debating between clear and smoked corners, both look good, but I feel the clear lens sticks of too much for my taste, next to the WRB paint. Plus, the smoked corners better compliment the headlights.

I put my Advan diffuser on.

Those pics make SWP look so yellow! Nice shots though. The Tesla is beautiful.

Went on an afternoon cruise up 33 that was life-alteringly pretty:

Brought lunch and ate a little picnic off my spoiler when I stopped in the mountains. Gorgeous late-afternoon golden light on the way out and caught the sunset + afterglow just perfectly on the way back. Criminally beautiful. Passed a white FR-S going the opposite direction on my way up and saw another FR-S a quarter mile from home on the way back. Nice to see other 86 brusefs out on lovely roads!

Oh, and hit 10k mi during the drive. It's been a great 10!

Not trying to be a **** but perhaps Mr. Tesla doesn't like his plate number on the internet either. Just a thought.

Nothing you wouldn't see if you were walking past. Mr Tesla can eat a ****.

Finally got my car back with JRSC installed

I definitely would've gone with a white BRZ over the black if it was the same white as the Tesla. BRZ white looks too beige/cream colored for my taste.
