How does it feel compared to the stock shifter?

Installed my front lip, and had a friend do a full interior shampoo with an extractor. squash air freshener.

Well, that's too bad, especially at those prices -

Yeah. $180~$190 isn’t cheap. It’s more than TRD/STI leather shift knob

@Tcoat

Calipers are now black.

Depending on how long you plan to take I'd make sure you have plenty of brushes. They gum up really fast.

Your calipers look good - IMHO calipers should be felt not seen.

"Gum up really fast"? What did you paint them with, old roofing tar -

Well, this quarantine program has gotten me super lazy.

Today, I ran my FR-S through a Brown Bear (tunnel type) car wash. Yes, I did.

From the inside, it felt like the car wash was going to tear the car apart, but nothing came off, yet.

Actually, it did a good job -

Added an MTEC clutch spring and Cusco radiator cap

I agree, the standard calipers are ugly. I wouldn't have minded silver, just no flashy colors that bring attention to cheap Subaru calipers.


The por-15 paint feels like it. It has excellent coverage. My issue was that I took the caliper and bracket off to paint. I did the inside in the evening and then the outside the next morning.

That gap requires a new brush. I tried soap and water a few times but wouldn't come fully clean, and would make deeper brush marks compared to a cheap new brush.

Better shot to show the caliper, top hat, and vents at the top of the disk.
