Was planning on picking it up tomorrow night actually. Sure makes it hard to not have it seeing yours every day now...

Was probably me in the Ultramarine if it WASN'T between 8:30-5 lol. Didn't see any FR-S's tho. With all that construction (and slow traffic) through there now, it's hard to be on the look out.

Put my WeatherTech trunk liner in tonight... fits like a glove! Love it!
Greddy EVO3 exhaust coming next week (hopefully) & having clear side markers installed! Woohoo summer is coming!

Where'd you get the clear side markers? I was looking into them but looked like they were pretty expensive and only available through a dealer in the US.

Ordered from a website that shipped from Japan. They were kinda pricey (for what they are) but haven't shown up on the M/C bill yet so I can't give you a 'landed cost'. I think they were $116 US$ shipping in. Not sure if there will be any duty charges etc. They arrived just over a week after ordering.

thorlius · 04-18-2013, 09:54 PM

Yeah, ok, thanks! That's what I saw as well. I didn't feel like spending more than $20 each for them. Maybe some day they'll end up here at a better cost. Or if you post some pics I might change my mind and decide it's worth it.

I used to ride there on my bike...but not anymore...

oh wow, didn't know it was a really popular place, i just sort of stumbled upon it the other weekend and only saw 1 other car while I was there. thanks for the heads up!

Just got my OEM spoiler from the dealer installed on Saturday! I Couldn't be happier with the results. Again Cambridge Scion was awesome to deal with.

Looks great!!

hello 86 owners,
New member here. I can only reply so I decide my first post go here.

I have been reading this thread since last year. I really really like the 86 because of its rwd and sport suspensions, but I also worried how possible to use it as a solo daily driver. For anyone daily drive it in this past winter, please share your comments.

I have an automatic I4 accord now. In the past I daily drove a lifted tj (4.0L,6mt). It was fine in winter--i even used rwd on purpose in snow. But 86 might be too light.

Dual car setup might be the right way, but it is costy.

On the upside I am *this* close to start getting my pile of new parts installed
