That's how I started. Then the next thing I knew, the car had wheels, tires, and suspension bits on it and my bank account couldn't sit right for a week.

Wasn't too fond of any of the canard offerings for the BRZ, so I ended up ordering the TRD ones for the FRS/GT86 and positioned it to my liking.

Finally clean! Or at least better than when I started

Wash + clay + wax.

Swapped stock sound tube and intake tube back in for warranty service.

Installing the aftermarket tube took 2 hours cuz I'm horrible, and clumsy. Re-install old tubing took 40 minutes...

Also, aftermarket tube definitely makes a difference on the butt dyno.
