Do you know what the rims are called? Would really like to know, thanks!

Since my delivery with the salesman obviously sucked. I realized today that the straps on the seats are for the belts to go through. For the last 5 months I've been complaining about the seat belt. Like wtf this thing just digs into my neck. Why isn't it adjustable. Turns out I'm just an idiot and didn't have the belt in the loop. Noticed it when I saw someone's interior pic on here. Lol

Sometimes those little things make a whole lot of difference!

Been having a lot of bumper sag ever since getting the car back from the body shop after a wreck. Decided to pull it off and reset it just incase they didn't put it back on right.

Low and behold I go to pull the clips out of the fender wells and notice these monsters where the little phillips head pop clips should be.

Go over to subaru to get new clips before I finish getting the bumper off as I don't want to put that insanity back in the bumper.

Find out that the body shop used those damn clips all over the place.. Finally got the bumper off after much frustration and a few choice words to find this lovely mess...

Whatever, I'll deal with it. Put the bumper back on, get it pretty much perfect after some playing around. Go to put the push pins that are behind the side marker in and notice that the hole does line up on the driver side (side that was "repaired"). The fender hole is about half a centimeter further forward than the bumper hole. Check the passenger side and it's lined up perfectly. So of course putting that clip in on the driver side pushes the bumper clips out and back to the sag life, but at least the passenger side is perfect!

Now to decide what to do with it since the damn body shop is another state over now that I've moved even though they apparently have a "lifetime warranty" on their repairs.

After local FFRS/BRZ meet, I had some time to waste, so went on quick photo shoot

More photos at here

Did another autocross today... I drove much better today, only ~6 tenths off of a national level driver/car. I was 7 thousandths of a second out of second place though, grrr. Pretty darn close!

Installed my OFT, HKS EL header, Tanabe overpipe, HKS front pipe, and HKS Legamax catback. Very happy with the sound, noise level. Teaser pic.

Call your insurance company. They normally offer warranty as well!
