Thankfully it will always look black contrasted on white.

Have you tried any of the products for black plastic trim on it like Black Magic or one of the others? That should darken it right back up. Youll need to reapply periodically though. Agreed that it seems like that should not happen to that degree with the car garaged. Still beautiful car though!

Yes! Mine probably isn't any different than any other it's just that against the Black Pearl it is so noticeable.

I’d deal with the grayscale for that Black Pearl.

Researched tire options for the new BRZ that is arriving soon. Plan is to mount new AS-3+ Michelin's.

Custom revlimiter center cap inserts for RPF1 wheels. Found the caps on eBay and commissioned Adam to make center caps inserts for them. I wanted an OEM+ look and he took it a step further and got a hold of an Emblem and matched not only the colour but the little checkered pattern of OEM emblems.
Hit him up as he now has the file on Subaru Emblem Blue OEM emblems and can make any insert for any size cap. And these aren't just stickers... these are OEM quality inserts. Also makes horn buttons and I picked up a couple of those as well. ![]() ![]()

Put it in quarantine. Throw out bearing stated squeaking last week. Not going to drive it until I change it, do not want to cause more damage. Never use the throw out bearing that comes with the ACT clutch. Ran across those posts about a week after I made that mistake.

Changed my oil @4500 as I had a mild track day on it and will have two next weekend. I dont have a sense of smell from a brain injury but my brother remarked he could smell fuel in the old oil. He asked his neighbor if that was what he was smelling to make sure and he could smell it a couple feet away. Concerning?
Also did these. |
