@dragoontwo Thanks. Order placed! Seems like dealership have secondary parts websites that provides lower prices which is different than the estore you find on their official dealer site.

No problem. I always like saving money on legit OEM parts.

I had the annual Inspection and Maintenance of the Nasiol ZR53 layered ceramic coating done on my BRZ tS. The staff were all just blown away with the condition of the coating and the hydrophobic ability it still had after a full year. Mind you, my car lives in the garage and although nearly two years old has just turned 10K of summer driving. So, it's not like it's seen a lot of bad weather or hard washes.
The one photo shows how it would still bead up after a year. The others are after the maintenance was completed.

Wish I could keep my car half that nice. I have a hard time washing it on a regular basis.

Installed my Lathe Werks shift knob and STI start button.
Changed my cabin air filter, though my 4 year old - 29k miles air filter looks essentially new.

That looks like the FT86SF/FTSPEED one. You can get it in Alcantara/CF or perforated leather/CF.

86Worx.com has some options for the 17+ models as well.

I like the looks of this one in all leather.

Yes, BA9092 is correct, it's the alcantara/carbon fiber wheel from FTSpeed for 2017+. If you want one, you may want to hurry as they only have 3 left in stock and I was told when I purchased mine they usually do a shipment every 6 months..
