jack43, love the wheels, very clean. The clear side markers look very nice on the SSM as well. Can I ask why you chose to swap out the fender badge?

18% tint.

The 1st 2 are Mt Graham and the last is Mt Lemmon.

We're lucky to have both of these 25mi climbs that go up to 9000'.. & they're very different. Graham is technical driving with very tight switchbacks and lots of shifting and hard braking. Lemmon is all 3rd and 4th gear ass-hauling on good pavement. Those turns treat you forgivingly with a constant radius, and a lot of the surprises have been taken away with road improvements over the years.

As a local I have a lot of memories - driving a '67 Caddy (6500lb!!) up there, my first date, bike rides, crazy lightning storms, snow, sport bike carnage..

I traded side vents with another forum member. My plan was to delete the emblems but I found out that there is a molded edge and you can't.

Can't argue about taste but the BRZ side vents look too 'Aston' for me. I wish that spot had a cleaner design without so many jumbled lines around the A pillars.

What bothers me most about the OEM Zed vents is the cheap plastic behind the painted portion. I do agree that they are a bit Aston-ish though.

These are a nice alternative but the price is BONKERS!

Honestly I picked it because it looks clean even when it's dirty!

Silver's the only acceptable color for the BRZ IMO

The BRZ looks so incredible in silver...I think silver shows the body lines off the best.

It really does. And I'm a sucker for how silver with chrome accents looks. I'd love to have the window frame chromed, looks amazing: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31644
