Look how he scans around to see if anyone is watching before he commits the act. And then how quickly he pedals away on his little bike afterward. P u s s y.

Yes, it is dual camera; one in the front windshield and another in the back window. I've got the BlackVue DR550... + Power Magic Pro.

They're worth the investment... Especially for those hit & runs.

I just picked up my super rare JDM exhaust today... install tomorrow!

And yes, this is one of the last ones in the US.

Also, I somehow miraculously fitted the box inside my car...

I've been looking to do this as well but having a hard time sourcing quality bulbs. Which ones did you use?

First mod on a dirty car!



I guess you could consider this a mod as well. Not from today but it'll be done again friday

they light up the same color so i figured at bare minimum no legal issues.


All Done.


Also have some yellow glass winjet fog lights on there way to replace my laminx covered stock ones
I really like the look of these, where did you get the parts?

What hitch do you have and approximate weight of that setup? I am moving soon and only have the BRZ and a sportster.

I had the drawtite hitch but I'm going to return it because its a piece of crap. Install was a major pita. It came 2 inches too narrow for the frame rails, I called and asked what was up with that and they said that it happens you just have to stretch them out to fit. Good luck trying to bend 1/4-5/16 or whatever thickness plate that is 2 inches. got it to fit, but it was off center. Worked but you know not happy. Also couldn't use the front 2 exhaust hangers on the stock exhaust, didn't fit with my invidia n1 either.

Just bought one of the gen 1 uhaul hitches from a guy on here, putting that on Thursday thatll solve all my problems ha.

I'm told the hitch itself weighs about 18lbs, the reciever and ball probably like 2 lbs. The trailer is a harbor freight trailer which was about 250lbs. 1 plywood sheet I think around 30lbs. Wheel chuck maybe 7 lbs. the bike is somewhere around 370. Grand total is about 675 lbs. Car handles it well. Trailer is rated for 1000 lbs

I imagine the sportster is quite a bit heavier
