Thank you!

I like it. On a scale of one to NEVER AGAIN, how much effort was it to hack the kit and install it?

WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY?

Looking good. Might be biased but silver is one of the best colors. Making me consider dark grey wheels lol

not hard at all. just basic soldering. there may be better kits out there that have the ability to turn on with the lights. other than that the most time consuming part was just running the wires around the car.

Was just about to ask about hot days lol

My ex had a civic si and that shift knob was torture on hot days..

So how does this fare? Still 200 degrees more than ambient temp on hot summer days?

I would donate you the STI lip for the trunk, but that mess is expensive. That needs to be replicated as well. You're car is lookin' on point, my ninja.
