Thanks for that info. I have the 60mm catback so I'm planning on going with 2.5 front pipe.

Ok I'll check it out. Is the Perrin resonated? I was just going with invidia hoping that they would match up easier being from the same company.

That's how mine was too... Only I was stopping for a light, guy hit me at 45-50 mph looking for his phone. They only claimed it did $3k worth of damage and 2k worth of labor though. But only having 1300 miles and buying the car with 7 miles on the odo, I couldn't deal with making payments on a brand new accident-ed car.

The great thing about the Perrin 3-piece catback is the ability to switch between resonated and unresonated for about $300. Running a stock system except for their catback, I found the resonated tone nice and deep but a little quiet so got the unresonated pipe, saved 5 lbs. or so and the tone is even deeper and louder than the resonated pipe but in an all-business non-droney way.

I have the 3 inch resonated, and it is very quiet. I like it though.

Neither IMO... but if you had to choose... gloss black. Seibon Carbon layover would look so-so. Best would be to cut the roof and replace with carbon roof... but yeah $$$

I saw a silver BRZ with satin black, and it looked great. Close to a match in color of the black plastic bits all over the exterior of the car (mirrors, below rear bumper, grill). Only two colors rather than the three that would come with gloss black. My opinion only

I purchased 3m glossy black vinyl for the roof a while back. Haven't ended up putting it on on yet. Waiting for better weather - then I'll test it out.

gloss black would match tinted windows though, decisions, decisions...
