WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY? - Page 1163 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I washed, clay barred, and waxed my FRS today.

Got it back after suffering a hit & run a few weeks ago. All fixed now. I'll update in a bit with some pics, just have to do some resizing because of the forum limitations.

EDIT: So there are the pics. Some are from the night of, some are from the day I dropped it for repair, and one of the fixed results.

Basically, was coming to a stop at a 4-way intersection (stop signs), preparing to turn left, and someone behind me thought it was cool to just swerve out into the oncoming traffic's lane (which is on my left) to blow through the intersection as I was making my left turn. Nose of their car went full on into my front left corner, T-bone style, and then our sides scraped as he kept his foot planted and took off. Just shy of $4k to fix it. No airbags thankfully, though the car freaked out and shut off the nannies and ABS controls after the hit. The slip light and the ABS light stayed on solid until maybe the second time I started the car several days later, then they were gone. Car seems to be driving fine.

Here's a link on ranges of tire size, if you're still looking.
Based on anything I'm reading, the 275s seem a bit wide for what you have... Especially with all the whopping (not!) power that the BRZ makes

Did you install right? The pin holding it in the shifter should stop any rattling

Maybe it needs to go in deeper (that's what she said)
