I guess I'll be shopping for a new one unless its fixable...

Tried to make an appt. with Driven Perfection in Weymouth to have my car cleaned and opti-coated, and to have a clear bra and window tint installed, but they're backed up through June. They can get everything done but it will take a few appointments. Anyone know of any other detailers of this caliber that can get me done sooner? I'm supposed to pick the car up Tuesday... This was poor planning on my part, but I really wasn't sure when the car was coming until just a few days ago.

Its not poor planning like you said you didnt know about your car. I haven't got my clear bra on yet and havent had problems with any rocks yet except for the one that cracked my window but it might be worth it to do it by appointment by appointment bc of thier rep. Unless you tailgate people youll be fine for a bit.

Yeah I love those rims too. I consider them in lineup of rims that I want when it comes to a Crystal Black BRZ though. You should check out @ATL BRZ's car to see what I mean.

I went with 18X8 Gunmetal Raijins all around but if I had do it over again with the 18x8.5 and 18x9.5's available now I'd go with the latter. Buying tires when staggered sucks because it's more expensive over time, but it looks wayyyy better.



See what I mean?

Now the wider Raijin's obviously will weigh more than mine but damn do they look hot with the concavity in the rear.

Nice! I've been lucky not to have any rattles yet, but I'll hit you up if I do!
