Missing antenna
So I got my FR-S last week and everything has been amazing with. Love the way it looks and drives. The only issue is, the actual antenna part of my antenna was missing when I got. I assume they unscrewed it to clean the car and never put it back on. Is there any way I could order that piece?

I assume you bought a used one or a 2014 that was still on the lot? The 2015 has a shark fin antenna...nothing to unscrew.

Go talk to whoever you bought the car from. That should be their responsibility. Doesn't matter if it's something as big as an entire wheel missing, or something as small as a screw-in antenna. If you're paying for the whole car, you should expect a whole car.

For some weird, god forsaken reason, check your glove box. They tend to store some sh*t like that in there, at least that's what I discovered when I was looking into a 2014 BRZ when my own BRZ was in for a service..

Before Pre-delivery inspection they come off the truck with them in a bag in the trunk or the glove box. I work at a Toyota/Scion dealership.

Yeah it was used but I didn't think to check if it was there when I bought the car. I didn't even notice it until I started listening to the radio and would have bad reception.

I ordered one of these within days of purchasing my car:
http://perrinperformance.com/i-13324...-fr-s-brz.html ![]() And these at exactly the same time: http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/inde...FQhbfgodg2EADw ![]() Those two items brought the car up to a "normal" cosmetic standard in my opinion. Should have come like that from the factory at the very least. And had they wanted to go the extra mile I wouldn't have said no to a FiveAxis rear spoiler and sharkfin antenna as standard.
