Just spotted a WRB BRZ in Austin today -- my first sighting of one on the street. It was around 6:15 pm stopped at the light of the east bound lane of Spicewood Springs Dr. at the Mopac access road.

It looked sweet! Was that any of you guys?

I was under cover during the hail yesterday fortunately!

No, no damage. Thank god lol. I was installing my mud guards when it starting raining just now. So I guess I'll be driving around with just three mud guards tomorrow

[luxmn]

Linseal I heard the mud guards have potential to scratch the paint in the long run, do you feel like this is the case during installation?

[Linseal]

Well the edges that touch the paint are rounded off. But I guess it could happen. I don't really plan to take them of though. Unless I get the five axis kit. I was just tired of getting crap on the side of my car. And I like the way the black guards look on my Argento

It wasn't me, I was already at home by then. I've heard from someone else that there's another WRB BRZ in the Northern Austin area that's been spotted a couple of times now. I wonder if they're a member...

So how did it turn out?

Hey I am sorry I forgot to post the pic. It turn out great the bubbles went away that night.and everything looks good. But I had a little mishap on tuesday night when it was rainning.I was distracted and thought the car infront of me was moving forward and bump into him.no damage to his car.and no scratches or dents in my car.But i think my front passenger side bumper may be hanging 1millimeter or .5 millimeter lower than it should be . Worst day ever.I can kick myself for that.

tint looks great but at the same time looks just like a 99 buck tint job, any insight on how this tint blocks more ultra violet ray than the normal kind?

Lol.Yeah they all look the same.And to be totally honest I wouldnt be able to tell the difference in heat reduction between most of the tint. I think as long as you get a tint that has a lifetime warranty it is good enough.Cause the difference in heat reduction in each leave is 5 to 15%.and no one sits in there car without A/C long enough to be able to tell.

Thanks for the beer offer I might take you up on that.Yeah it was a bummer.
