This thread makes me hate my BRZ front bumper even more than I already do, lol. Great job on the headlights and especially excellent work on the carbon fiber dash pieces. I am definitely reworking my carbon fiber dash pieces now.

There are way too good cars nominated to the best of the year award!

Hehe, yeah I was implying that, but I couldn't make up my mind so I figured I'd give the vote to the "local" board member

Damn yelli celi - i thought that you was coomer lol! Damn how many people are here from 6gc scene

There are a few of us who have actually made the move to the FRS/BRZ from a 6GC.

Ok, started my day at 11am... Had lots of sanding, resin laying - and other stuff to do... Now its 2AM in the morning and I just finished these damn panels! They came out perfect - and in this picture - they are clear coated with the first layer of clear! Tomorrow will wet sand them - and shoot another layer of clear...

This is more or less real view of the Reflection Carbon fiber - it looks stunning. Gives such a nice glare of red!

And here's a little video I made - still hard to catch this magical red-glare it gives - but you will get the idea

Cant wait to put them back in my FRS

They will go super nice with all the red stitching

No worries! I checked the previous pics and you did cut the bit in the middle but I thought you're going to keep it in this time.

What are you using to cut it out? I am guessing a Dremmel?

Install was quite straight forward - and once done - it was WOW... Really - WOW. Never thought that it would free up this engine so much - response from the pulley was sooo much better!! Damn - its such a nice / cheap mod and gives a lot bigger smile now driving my FRS

Next step - had some Bride Gias seats that i bought long before car came in - they are in reupholstery shop now

Doing them in black alcantara + red stiches. Should be able to install them later maybe next week

Also - sourced brakes from 03' STi - so these should go in pretty soon too

Thanks man! That was the honest answer I was searching for to push me over to get this mod done.
