Would you say no to dealer detail & wash?

That's completely up too you. I'm very OCD when it comes to my cars paint. Id prefer for me to use my materials then let them use theirs.

my car was dirty and they knew enough to not wash the car at all.

but i wanted to inspect the car for dents/scratches, so i had them wash my car.

You will love the whiteout. It looks amazing.

I would double-check to see if the 5 Axis spoiler will cover the holes left by the OEM Scion spoiler. It does not cover the holes of the BRZ Limited spoiler so I suspect it will be the same situation.

5 axis does not cover the holes, but TRD will. I know because I looked into the 5 axis as my first choice. Kinda sucks :/

I finally have a ETA, sometime between March 24-28 in that week. The sooner I don't have to drive this miserable Civic, the better.

Nah, maybe a Civic Si, but I'm currently using a 7th gen Civic as a stop gap car and I hate almost everything about it. Its a serious downgrade in almost every category from my Impreza...except fuel economy but even there its not brilliant due to how slow it is...

Hot Lava 6MT due sometime between now and the 10th, deposit is down. They apparently had to give the dealer it was going to two 'regular' FR-S to secure this Monogram as it wasn't allocated for Toyota Mall of GA.

Girlfriend bought the Hot Lava 6AT Monogram they had on the lot last Saturday.

Here's hers as of Sunday morning at a local car show/meet:

I'm rocking a 6th gen DX that's trying to run on 3 cylinders. I'm quickly running out of patience.
