Yea I'm thinking about getting the mudguards from the FRS. I thought about rallyarmor but it will take away from the sleek look of the car I think.

The mustang was fun and was nice but it just wasnt me. I love the BRZ so much more and I feel like I can make it my own where as the mustang it was hard to break the mold. I also have the 240 which literally makes the same power as the mustang except boost is more fun.

Sexy Looking Car! Quick Question

With your rims did you need to stretch or modify your car at all or did you just slap them on with no problems?

I rolled the rear fenders as a precaution but I have not touched the fronts at all. It rubs on fender liner in the front because I'm running 234/40/18 federals which are known to run wide anyways.

Those wheels look great on your car. They look very aggressive without becoming non-functional. Outside of the coilovers, did you need anymore work done to make them fit?

Thanks man! Yea they look very aggressive but I am able to run my 235/40 with plenty of room left and not a whole lot of neg camber. I wanted to still be able to do autox, mtn runs, and drift so I didn't want a ton of camber and super skinny tires. Other than coilovers I rolled the rear fenders but that's all I've done so far.

What kind of alignment specs are you running? More specifically camber, in order to fit your setup?

It's basically just the natural camber. I had took it to the shop to take out some of the camber but they gave me some BS saying they could not mess with the camber, the "specs" they gave me was around -2.5 give or take a little all the way around. I'm putting on Stance LCAs in a couple of weeks so I'll get a proper alignement then.
