Hmm, I can dig it! How about some Subaru love? BRZ`logo and/or Stars of Pleiades, maybe?

Goyo · 11-27-2012, 03:28 PM

Yep, the 86 logo !

PS: Turbowned, I tried to pm you but does not work. Please email me. Cheers.

JD86 · 11-27-2012, 07:49 PM

Yes please, I'll take the large 86 logo with swipe marks and deeper engraving please!

You should make some of the plaques with grooves cut out so BRZ guys can get in on this.... I'd totally sport it during summer.

Also makes it less chance to accidentally hit the heated seats. Only happened twice in the 5 months, but hell lol...

yospeed · 11-27-2012, 09:54 PM

Lots of BRZ's and no BRZ love... I might have to make something special for you guys. Hopefully I'll have a chance to meet up with my BRZ friend soon and I can blueprint some dimensions off his car to see if it's possible.

Pssssssst! Install it in a car then post a pic! I dig the "unit" one, myself!

einzlr · 11-28-2012, 03:00 AM

I don't have the car yet, but I'm liking the coasters

Agent86 · 11-28-2012, 03:50 AM

As partly suggested earlier, a version for those of us with heater switches would be good. Obviously cut outs so it fits over/around the switches, maybe with the 86 piston logo running across the top (slightly offset vertically from centre - so that the 86 is falling down into the section between the switches) and VIN below.
Does that make sense?

yospeed · 11-29-2012, 12:43 AM

Perfect sense! I'll have photos of them installed this weekend. Meeting up with an FR-S buddy.

I'll try to meet up with my BRZ buddy soon too, but his car is always in the shop or on display somewhere. As soon as I can catch up with him, I'll try to work out the heated seat button issue for BRZ owners.

Slartibartfast · 12-01-2012, 04:10 PM

I like the idea. (Love the coasters too. One that says "Steve's Guinness" with the harp in the middle would be awesome)

For the plaque... how much customization would we be able to do? Is something like this possible? The font would likely have to be a little larger.

Lammie · 12-02-2012, 02:56 PM

I'm hoping you can make some plaques for the BRZ. I'm pretty excited about this little addition to the interior.

yospeed · 12-02-2012, 05:20 PM

I'll be meeting up with a BRZ owner this week to see how feasible it is to make a plaque for their center consoles. If everything goes well, it'll be added to our line up!

For now, I was able to test fit the plaques and everything went smoothly. I've also finalized the coasters and the cork backing came in for them. They should be ready very soon!

Here are some photos from the test fit:

Looks awesome

SPEEDGOD · 12-03-2012, 12:41 AM

I think I like one just with the 86 logo thanks, how much?
