Put $20 worth of gas.


Washed, clayed, and waxed cars.




Then got the car to 30k miles. Car is old.

Diode Dynamics tail to turn conversion with the turn signals to backup lights. Also did the Helix clear side markers. Really makes the series.blue a lot cleaner without those amber tints. I also ordered the LED light kit for the interior in blue and LED bulbs for the front turn signals.

Finished everything out with a wash and wax..Purty...

Do you have pics of the Helix markers? I'd like to see them.

I don't know too much about recognizing damage, but it looks like you avoided suspension and frame damage? If so you could have been much worse off!

Well, my front suspension might have taken a hit since the fender and the wheel bent backwards closer to the door due to impact. I would imagine that the front passenger suspension should be replaced from first glance.

Insurance adjuster will let me know tomorrow morning the full extent of the damage.

Prayers.

Looks like right front suspension, fender, bumper, door, a-pillar, hood, headlight, and a lot of plastic clips and bits, and possibly some frame rail straightening (though it looks like you lucked out on that)

Good luck with all of the repairs, and if they can't match the paint then they're a body shop that shouldn't be in business.

A nice wash

I had capped my PTO last week so I took a half day and decided the car needed a wash since Houston had a string of sh!t weather. Mirror like finish and lens flares like a JJ Abrams' movie.

Took mine to Atlanta Motorsports Park for some track time yesterday! It was the first time for the BRZ and for me as well. Needless to say, I am already looking for more track days to sign up for!
