My guess is a there is a faulty sensor connection somewhere. I'd get the mechanics to have a go and make it functional first before worrying about the bodywork.

New goodies came in this week such as all black interior parts (need black everything, haha) but more importantly - my Air Lift Performance Digital V2 suspension. Already plumbed the tank, compressor, struts, and got everything snipped and stripped for the wiring. Should have this cranked out by early afternoon. Then off to Mach V on Tuesday for the alignment it will desperately need.

I didn't get a ton of complements back up in MD, but once I got down to Florida that changed. I get at least 1 or two people trying to talk to me about the car at traffic lights every week. I thought there would be many more twins down here. It's Florida after all. They are too obsessed with American muscle here apparently.

It's strange. I had my BRZ out on 50 going over the Bay Bridge. I caught more than a couple of people checking out my car on the highway.

I understood it when mine was one of five in the entire state, but now the car is almost two years old. And mine doesn't look all that fantastic.

I can only stand a certain amount of wet-groin time before I require a shower.

And then there's old spice /endjoke.

I don't like the summer when it's burning hot and I don't like it when hell freezes over. Fall and spring are perfect. This snow needs to go away ASAP.
