Got pics? I couldn't decide if the 2" was too stubby from the pics on Perrin's website.

You should go with the visual garage shark fin. Sleeker look and better reception for almost the same price!

Just did the LED light rplacement kit from http://automationled.bigcartel.com/ awsome change for the BRZ especially for those of us getting older and can,t see and live where it will be getting dark at 4:30 in a couple of months, well worth the few bucks, plus it looks cool.

Got in my gram lights and installed them on my BRZ! As far as I know I am the first to get the 57xtremes in winning blue for this setup. Installed them with some kics project caliber blue lugs and rays center caps with falken 245/35/19 rear and 225/35/19 fronts. Monday I will be getting my KW variant 3 coilovers and will post a pic then!

I hit a couple of BRZ milestones for me today.

First, driving to Peet's in San Ramon, CA, I hit 1K mi. on the odo.

Then I decided to swing south on I-680 towards Fremont. On the way in Sunol, CA is the Sunol Super gas station which has a great selection of high octane fuel. I picked the 96, which was I think $6.10 a gallon. I didn't feel any movement on the butt-dyno, but the power delivery feels smoother and the engine feels happy being off the crappy CA 91.

Finally I met up with 2 other BRZ owners in Belmont, CA to set up our tint/clear-bra appointments. My BRZ is the SWP on the left. So cool to meet other BRZ owners in the Bay Area!

Oh, I also ordered some Motul 0w-30 full synthetic motor oil, a magnetic drain oil plug, and a gold series oil filter from NLM, and I put a deposit down on Visconti's ECUtek proecu/STG 1 flash group buy. Gonna be a busy couple of weeks
