Thank you!
I had seen a gt3 RS in person and fell in love with the paint matched wing foil. I think the opportunity just came around at the perfect time

Wing fell through, but I got something else in the works... stay tuned!
meanwhile, a new challenger appears!

A friend got in an accident recently and took this opportunity to come to the dark side.

long story short, the friend I bought the wing from was scammed when he purchased it second hand. it turned out to be a s2k wing, and we didn't know about it.

I have since purchased a new APR GTC200 fitted for our cars, so I'll just rock the carbon wing in a couple weeks.

How hard is the install. I have the rallyarmor with sti rear spats. Does the diffuser bolt up pretty easy?

install is pretty straight forward. Bolts up no problem and you wont need to take the spats off at all

Hi all!

Trunk needs to go back in for a repaint, but I managed to install the wing with some friends. It was honestly one of the most time consuming install I've done simply because I'm a little OCD and wanted it to sit perfectly. We took our time measuring and drilling, and the end result looks pretty good, I think.

I'm thinking a splitter to spice up the front end next (thinking of going the custom route) and saving for boost!

The TE's look way better with the red decals than the neon green.

Great looking car man, I remember when this was just a stock series blue :P

How's the MXP SP with the JDL UEL? Is there any drone?

Haha! it's been two years already, so she's evolving at a normal pace.

I think there is a very small amount of drone in 6th gear, but only with the rear seats down. with the seats up, no drone. it is also much louder than Perrin, so I'm really happy about that.
JDL UEL and MXP SP is my favorite combo so far outside of those that are droney.

My 2nd choice would be nameless if I could deal with drones.

As a new BRZ owner it's going to take much restraint to not copy this build. Looks great man.
