Candlejack's BRZ Limited Build thre

[Candlejack]

I just really like this car, okay? Needs more low though. And a lip. I was looking at the HT Autos kit today. It's pretty in line what what I want. Flat-side-skirts with no over-the-side-of-the-car bits (like the STi skirts). I'd love to go CF but it's probably not in the budget...ever.



Talked to my dealer about my ever-approaching temp plate issue. They said that apparently the previous title had two names on it, so they had to resend it back to get it signed by the second person and I should have it next week. They're overnighting me a new temp plate to last me until I get it registered in MI.

I like working with wood ;D So I started a little project...











It needs a little stain and poly. And I'm thinking of beveling the center a little to give it a more ergonomic feel and style to it. We'll see. For now it fits great. I'm going to test-run it for a couple days. And I'll get some better pics when it's finished for sure.

What do you y'all think?

Picked up some LED Fog light replacements. I hate the yellow filament bulbs.

Color is a pretty good match. And for a $6 eBay purchase I couldn't be happier.
Here's the linky.

I'm thinking the car really needs some side skirts. I'm thinking HT Autos or similar. I'm looking at eBay and Amazon...

And I wrapped the visors in Suede!





Very hard to get pictures that do them justice.



Try to disregard my crazy face.

Correct! Btw nice job on the suede wrap!

Picked up some parts for my 4BL project. I'm using a dual-"filament" LED bulb, a 3-wire piggy back socket, and a strobe module. Basically I'm going to run it as a "rear fog light" (I might even wire it up to the fog lights so it shows up on the dashboard) and as a flashing F1-style 4BL when braking. Flashes 3-4 times, then steady on.

Excitement!

I made my thing do a thing and stuff.

The wiring is all right to have it on with parking lights + strobe brake. But the bulbs I bought weren't the right kind. So for now I can just switch the quick connects if I want to switch between using it as a parking light v using it as a strobe brake.

I think it's fun. +safety

Who ever owns that white BRZ in the far right is awesome. The white brz on the left is just a copy cat. Bahaha.

You got to send me a link of the parts you used especially the flasher. I want to do this so bad.

Also the wiring diagram would help a lot.

Tnx

Check the post just before the video. All the links are there.

Looking at it I wish it had a more deliberate flash than a rapid blinking. Still looks good though.
