Pull this stubborn bastard out. Definitely feel like it was worth the trouble with the difference in clutch feel.

How much did that actually help out? I've heard that the spring might mask the real feel of the clutch, so i'm curious as to what taking the spring off actually did with the feel.

Washed, waxed, fitted my window visors (finally) and in a completely unrelated item, quit my job

It's night and day literally. Not exaggerating. Try it, you be the judge.

Edit: To be more helpful, it's like installing a short shifter on your clutch lol

I'm in the same boat. I'm not a big fan of the sideskirts, but I like the rear spats. Debating to just get those or run OEM mudflaps, but it bugs me that you can't get them through Subaru.

Made a huge difference for me. The clutch feel is much better and the pedal doesn't have that break point feel where it gets easier to press. I always thought the clutch felt like a compound bow where you get to that break point and it gets easier to press.

Short and sweet; the clutch has a much more linear feel and isn't nearly as vague as it used to be.

It's good to note that the rear spats dont' sit lower than the skirtless side panel. I'm happy with it so far.

I don't have a proper side shot yet, but I have these:

First time seeing that set up in silver. looks great!

Yeah, I got a job over here in PA now. Will be sad that I won't be driving the BRZ as much, but at the same time I'll be happy to not have to do a 300 mile round trip commute.

Anyone have the CWest lip on their BRZ, I put the STi style on my car and I like it but I'm liking the CWest. I find lots of Scion's with the lip but don't see many with on the BRZs

I've been looking for a PU front lip and rear spats for a while now but the only thing keeping me from getting them is the mixed reviews. It seems like every place that sells the cheaper version of the lip kits is a toss up on whether you will get a good product.

I get the "you get what you pay" for but I'm not looking to spend $250 or more on something I'm going to scrap up lol But I'm getting more and more antzy to try to at least get a front lip first.

I had to quit my job too! Last day is today. Hopefully I start my new (better) one on Monday.

:fist bump:

Then I can finally order a new front lip and under tray, and start saving up for other projects.

18' on STi rims really makes the difference
