Thanks in advance!
I got mine from fteightysix's shop. They shipped it out same day.

Installation was easy for the most part. Kind of a pain to get to the one relay but everything only took about an hour to do. I love how these lights look at night.

No. The automatic roll down feature is a protection against freezing temperatures. It protects the glass from breaking when opening the door in the event that the window gasket has been frozen onto it. It has no use in non-freezing weather.

But it freezes in place in freexing weather...

Yeah, one of the reasons to get them is because of how it looks at night. Thanks for the redirect!

I may stick with the clears but TOMS are so tempting.

For my other question, anything that I should be looking at when I get my windows tinted here in NYC?

Just in case anybody asked - we are now finishing our design works on factory BRZ/FR-S/GT86 steering wheel and our custom cover will be officially released later this week

Stay tuned, boys and girls!

Take care

Threw these new tails on today. The back end of the car is pretty much done. Baking my headlights then off to wheels and reduce the gap! Been a fun first 6 weeks of ownership.

Arrow WARNING - STi Badges @ Japanparts

Ordered a few of these recently with my last order from JP. Just a word of warning, these badges have three pins on the backside and are obviously designed for the STi spoiler as per description on package and website. I just assumed they had a flat back with 3M applied just like the STi badges that BaysonR sells or others on ebay. Not a big deal, the pins can be easily removed with a dremel and 3M reapplied if desired

Unfortunately the pics and description at JP do not reflect any info on the pins located on the backside as shown in my pics
In comparison to the other STi badges sold by BaysonR for their ABS STi side skirts they sell, they are virtually identical minus the 3 pins found on the ones from JP. So just a heads up again for those looking to buy these in the future
