Question... Is that the depo exhaust? Also why would you recommend the ft86sf cover over the innovate cover. I was going to buy the innovate cover because I think it looks cleaner, but is it?

Yes. Depo's exhaust is dirt cheap... but have decently good quality. I was planning to go custom exhaust option (cutting out muffler & put different muffler & tip) & just wanted 2.5" single exit base, so went w that. currently waiting on other muffler & tip to come in, so I can weld it later.

As for the cover, I'll write the detail review later, but simply put it quality isn't good. Came with so many imperfection, it not even funny. Scratches & other stuff just question it's worth it. FT86SF ver is $10 cheaper & their quality is legit. It was my stupid mistake for not buying FT86SF instead... but ID's cover is a bit lighter than FT86SF (FG vs Steel).

Neat comeback, but I have read that in the '50s, people were so enamored of their shiny, colorful, chrome-covered new cars that their architects actually integrated the garage with the living room or family room, with furniture, lamps, etc., so the owners could lounge around admiring their cars. Mostly California, I guess -- land of my awakening! I think there was a coffee table book in the '80s called "Populuxe" which illustrated over-the-top trends like that. I think I really wouldn't mind living with my BRZ -- what about you guys?

I put the same mud flaps on mine (but with gray branding, of course). At least I didn't suffer a scrape before I got them. I actually liked the sleek fit of the OEMs better, but they looked like they wouldn't fend off anything. Installation was not too problematic, but there is one screw on each rear flap which will never be tight, until tire rotation anyway.

Dang, I have never liked blue cars, but y'all have shined up your WRB Z's SO pretty!

More of a joke really. I would totally park my BRZ in the living room if I could. I've always wanted an open house with an integrated garage.
