I use a stainless steel polish. Let it soak for 5-10 mins and then wipe the grime away. Just make sure you don't get it on the plastic parts as it'll stain them

Just ordered a Corsa exhaust can't wait to get that installed

also waiting for some LED fog lights from diodedynamics...

I really want this but it seems like it's been out of stock for a while now https://www.86speed.com/products/v3-...-no-flash.html

Loving this exhaust, sounds better than my Boxster S ever did. Really amazed honestly, never knew the car could sound this good.

It's RCE Yellows in most of my pics, with stock BRZ wheels. The fitment is pretty good, sometimes depending on the angle and the ground you're parked on it looks like the back is lower than the front which has always bothered me. Rolling down the road it looks perfect though. The camber in the rear is a little much, sometimes I slip a little coming out of corners accelerating. Eventually I just want to get some wider wheels and better tires.

yeah both those pics were pre-spacer install. I put 20mm in the front and 25mm in the rear and it massively improved the wheel fitment. it might also be the reason I'm getting slipping under high torque turns, I haven't had time to do any testing and the spacers are stuck on my hubs anyway.
