Those will look good on the BRZ but you can never go wrong with RPF1.. I would listen to your wife and then let her know you are taking her advice when you buy them! I've got some silver RPF1s now but when I go FI I am going to get some new, wider RPF1s in gold I believe. I am a sucker for gold.

Added tint today. This will be my first car with tint! I had my TC for ten years without it, but I got everything for the BRZ.

20% 3M Color Stable on all windows.
??% 3M Crystalline on the entire windshield. They only had one film so I didn't ask the %.

I have the JDM clear side markers on the way. Im thinking I might do a full LED conversion inside and out including fogs. I've been looking at these ones for a while.

Then Perrin intake hose and K&N filter. I'm not going to do a crazy build like some. My last car was a rattle trap and ended up being a nightmare so, I'm enjoying being mostly stock right now.
