Installed the replacement exhaust Milltek sent me. Good news: excellent customer service / warranty coverage. Bad news: they sent me the same resonated center section that I originally ordered-- last time I had a resonator weld failure, I requested that they send me a straight-pipe instead so that it wouldn't break again. They did, and my car got a lot louder and angrier sounding, and I rapidly grew to like it. Now they've updated the design of their resonated center section so it won't crack anymore, which is good, but when I put the new system on, my car got so quiet-- especially since I plugged the cabin sound tube a couple of weeks ago! I miss my less-civilized sound! (Although I'm sure my neighborhood doesn't :P)

Maybe I'll have to see if I can order an a-la-carte straightpipe center section with the new flexy-section design so that I can have both sounds available. If I ever go to sell the car, I suppose most people will prefer the resonated one since it really minimizes noisiness and just sounds like a really nice OEM system.

Bought an always on module by DD, to have the DRL's on always, as well as the LED boomerang during the day. Was looking into installation more and saw sooo many negative reviews.

This is from my snapchat, was lazy to upload pics individually so I saved my story and posted it to youtube.

For my HyperBlue BRZ, first thing I did was get a dashcam (KDLINKS X1) Not shown in video. A air freshener, new car smell disappearing & some really good floor mats 3D MAXPIDER . They look and fit great and feel great..Glad I got these and not weathertec, they look more pleasing aesthetically and are less bulky but still functional. I'll give a review in a week or two.

And last, a K&N air filter. Just some small little mods for me to get the ball rolling. I'm looking to get the car opti-coated next week hopefully. After that I'm going to do a little bit of interior and grab the new Valenti tail lights when they come out in January. After that it's big plans, because I'm going to try and get the quad tip titanium blitz exhaust.

Anyways, here's the video.

I also just received and installed the 3D Maxspider floor mats. They're awesome. Mine didn't come with any when I purchased it

I have some as well. First thing I bought for the car when I got it. They've been pretty solid and look substantially better than weather tech in my opinion. Only complaint, the rubber area directly under the pedals started to wear and pull up. I ended up ripping it all the way off eventually. Not a big deal. Had them for six months before they started.
Either way, all my friends get in and say they are the best floor mats they have seen.

I ordered mine off amazon. Still have the Prime trial so it came in 2 days

They also have the carpet version instead of the "kagu" rubber which I contemplated on getting. I ended up with the rubber one and it feels nice and not like thin plastic.

Don't worry about it. A large portion of the reviews were from people who either (a) installed it wrong or (b) didn't understand what it was supposed to do in the first place. i've had mine on since they released it and it's been totally fine.

That explains it. I searched for a BRZ. There's nothing available for it. The FRS on the other hand... parts for days.

Great to hear! I definitely saw people talking about it, not knowing what it was in the first place haha. Hopefully I install it correctly
