Hmm, so tempting!! O_O
Thé only thing that prevents me from buying them right away (or the APR ones) is that I drive my BRZ through winter and would lose the OEM heating feature. Maybe I should just find a winter beater at this point...lol

I'd just replace the 'Subaru' with 'RTO'. It just sounds like a sub-model of the BRZ, and isn't trying to explain as hard as 'retro'.

Thanks man! I totally recommend them. Like anything else TRD, they are very well made and designed.

I absolutely LOVE what you did with the gauges! A+!

Gabeisonfire · 03-22-2016, 02:56 PM

Love the unique touches on this car. Those gauges and wheels are rad.

I've just seen a lot of enthusiasts try to imitate retro/old school and it doesn't turn out very well, but you sir have have a rare exception 👌

Who's ready for some British Racing Green metallic???

The color is beyond my expectations, definitely got that retro feel and I'm eager to see what it looks like outside under the sun !

Can't wait !!!!
