I installed LED dome & trunk lights.
For the trunk light, I also added some aluminum tape to the top inside of the diffuser and back of the housing to get a bit more light out of it.

I painted my calipers and then Plasti-dipped my car anthracite grey (matte). Loved it. Will re-dip next summer, thinking a glossy version of anthracite or a color flip, maybe black/red when it comes out. Had fun peeling it off and even kept some panels dipped for a while.

Sorry I am in the pic, best one I had of it at the time.

Noone mentions what a pain it is to get the stock relay out to make the switch lol...

I haven't posted these, but in the past month I have:

Installed OEM Audio Plus reference system
Installed WeatherTech mats
Ordered Helix smoked side markers
Installed Perrin CAI

Hoping to install the side markers soon but those brackets are a pain to deal with.

cwpbrz-ji starter Mods:

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 [matte black] wheels (17x8, 5x100, +42, hub 56.1, weight 9.0 kgs/19.84 lbs ea. +++ with plenty of room for larger brakes in the future)

BF Goodrich G-Force Comp 2 tires (245/40R17, weight 11.4 kgs/25.2 lbs ea.)

WORKS Motorsports Stage 0 Power Package with “WORKS High-Flow Drop-In Air Filter” and “WORKS Exhale ABM Exhaust” (M = muffler); rather than the supplied AB exhaust

cwpbrz-ji starter Bling:

STi Under Spoilers (front, side, rear quarter) and Diffuser

WORKS Lug Nuts

Wheel locks

WORKS Grab Shift Knob (M12x1.25mm)

cwpbrz-ji starter Comments:

(imo) Above additions, sans bling, allow car to breathe a little easier, put a little more rubber on the road, and reduce a little (total automobile) weight.

I would like to mass thank FT86 Club members for providing a fantastic research facility. Your ongoing contributions made my choices much easier and I sincerely thank you for this!

I like to work on my vehicles, but due to losing my shop, tools, etc. to a recent fire I asked WORKS Motorsports, at Sonoma Raceway, to do my wrenching, and was quite pleased with their service/work!

Non-pictured Extras:

WORKS Motorsports T-shirt

Autographed photo of WORKS BRZ ‘racecar’

Giro ~ Monaco, color: Blue Jewel (looks like HB) Cycling gloves (for driving) to honor and welcome 2016 Hyper Blue owners.

No pics yet, but yesterday I installed the an intake tube, MXP header, over pipe and cat back. It took about 3.5 hours for the entire process. The parts are all well made and were incredibly easy to install. I'll tell you what, it's a hell of a lot louder! I get a little drone at 3000 rpm's, but I'm incredibly happy with the sound and power output. That stock over pipe is a PITA to get out...i had to remove the heat shields to make enough room to wiggle it out.

Thank you for the kind words! We're glad we could help!

Here's another photo with the car done; has a nice aggressive look now. Cheers.
