Yeah, no drilling for me either. I've prob been rolled 3-4 times for no plates in my previous cars. My friend had the grim speed and he said he didn't like it, didn't ask why. It's a simple and relatively cheap mod, I didn't put much thought of what brand to go with. Overall I'm happy with it, and I kinda wanted to show off my new limited edition plates anyways.

Drove in the snow for the first time today. X-ice 3's take the edge on dry handling, but Blizzaks on the RSX feels more stable in the snow. Then again, it's hard to compare since the 2 cars are different enough so that the two tires will have different experiences depending on the car. Still felt safe and not as noisy though.

I also drove it in snow for the first time today. I am running Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice WRT on my car. It did pretty good, snow was rather deep in some places, but it went right through it fine.

I don't post here much but I thought I might add what I did today on my BRZ!

Changed the dash cluster and center console from red LEDs to blue!!
came out nicely. PLCC2 LEDs off ebay for very cheap did the trick!

Drove it to work. 6+ inches of snow last night, Michelin winter X-ice Xi3 tires, slow, some roads a lot worse than others. spun the wheels a bit upon start up, but still an infinite times better than the primacy hp in snow.

first one to work. (might have more to do with my township is apparently the best at snow cleanup)
