Darkened up the rear a bit more with black badges and black license plate frame. Just need to do something with that backup light assembly now.

That's exactly what I am looking for! It's either that or $99 for the GCS light or $199 for the Valenti light. Not sure if I like the lit ---v--- or not though.

At one point I could not decide if I wanted to blacken everything or stick to the shiny chrome and bright stuff so I happened to have the link for that overlay in my favorites. It made the most sense to me since I did not like all the replacement lights available.

Unboxed one of my new wheels and placed it onto a makeshift support so that in the prone position I could attempt to visualize the intended result.

The good - wicked. Happy.

The bad - could see stock wheel spokes lurking in the background, so imagination necessary to complete the dream.

The further bad - prone position, i.e., laying on yer belly, on a wet driveway in the rain . . . sucks, but was still oddly worth it.

Bought my 2016 WRB Limited a week ago Friday.

Installed Cusco front & rear strut bars on Thursday.

Installed Raceseng Slammer knob on Saturday.

Kartboy short shift kit is in the garage waiting to be installed.

Today I went to the dealership half n' hour late. went ahead and made myself home and changed the rear turn signals to LEDs, now the whole car is LED and I can say it is way better than halogen.

Tomorrow I'm picking up the spare tire I ordered from the US since my car came with an original wheel as a spare so not much space in the trunk now, hoping for more tomorrow once the spare and subaru trunk cover in.

Quite the company on the track, always nice to see higher classed cars get pushed on time by our cars.

So where is that updated driving pic??
Your signature needs updating.

Car looks great. I am a bit surprised your lap times were not a little quicker. I check your second full lap and had you around 1:53. Granted the P-Car held you up a bit in 6 and 7. Probably cost you a second plus. What are you normal lap times? I haven't had my BRZ on the track, but my 09 MX5 use to run 1:46-1:47 on street tires with suspension, IHE. I was running that day with a guy in a newer FRS and he was bone stock with NT01. We were pretty close, but I would gain a little bit on corners and straights, but really close otherwise. Typical P-car, hold you up from 1-7, but than pulls past you on the back stretch.

ATL BRZ talkin to himself in here...

That orange GT3 certainly took off out of that corner, haha. Your BRZ is looking like a Gt3 BRZ. Great video.

I've run 1:46s in the car before so I know there's more in it but this was my first time on track in a year and lots of new mods to shake down.
