I know. I'm just thinking that the PNs on the other two are on the side that's not facing the camera. Gonna ask the guy to confirm though.

did you internet after late 90s? It was one of the original "shock" websites where you could find all manner of things normal people would generally never imagine, let alone encounter.

That's the email I have from Doug Gill. He said 2014-2015 only. The springs only became available during the end of the 2013 production. So if someone can produce paperwork for 2013 that's great. Mine's a 2014, so I'm not sweating it. I'll have the bars/springs tomorrow, and will put them on the car this weekend.

^This makes me a little hesitant, but I ordered the springs anyways. Luckily I've got a buddy who will buy them off me if I can't determine that they're legal on my '13. The way I see it, if you can show that you car was manufactured after the TRD PNs introduction in early July '13 then you can make a strong case that the parts were an option for your vehicle.

I would think if you could make that case it would pretty easily follow that the entire production year is legal. I'm just glad the tires on my BRZ are getting hard and I'm a mediocre driver, or this would be frustrating.

Damn, I'd thought my car had a July '13 MFD but I just checked and saw it's actually May. If I don't hear any updates on this before too long I'll end up selling the springs to my buddy.
