I stared at the paint that my dealership ruined with horrible swirl marks.

I see so many cars with holograms. Dealerships just love that big wool pad on their crazy buffers

At least our paint isn't too bad. I hear usual Subaru paint is sticky as hell to work with and doesn't buff easily. IIRC Toyota does the paint work

Well I have tried multiple correction and it always comes back, chances are I am just filling them in then it wares off to reveal them again. I guess I need to fight the dealer to pay for a "real" detail shop to repair it.

Do you have a buffer? I actually haven't used mine on the BRZ yet so I'm not sure how it is.

I would steer clear of dealerships for detailing. [edit] just saw you said you want them to pay for someone else

I didn't do anything to my BRZ except clean some bird shit off it.

But these came in so I thought about putting them on.

Where did you get those and what was the price? Look much better than the cheap stock plastic

Installed @Corner3garage 20/25mm wheel spacers.

Before: puny and insecure.


After: manly and aggressive!



@ichitaka05, do you have the homelink mirror? I was able to get rid of my gate opener and garage door opener by programming my mirror to handle those duties.

I do... but it doesn't program. I tried so many time, but prob my garage opener might be old that, it doesn't link up. It's a bit annoying, but nothing to cry bout
