I like the foglight idea, even if the user has to cut the fogs with a template... Mainly because some people plan to go F/I and need space for an intercooler

I'd even consider buying these and just cutting the foglight housings myself but a template would be nice.

would you guys sell the backing plate only?

Yes we can.

and the backing plate would cost $$ ? Any indication would be good as I have the first race coming up in March and it has some big brake points .. one from about 260kph down to 80.. will it work with the Essex Sprint kit?

Thanks for the good work.

I believe the Essex AP racing kit uses a larger rotor, so our backing plate would have a large gap. the air inlet on the backing plate would be larger also since there would be more space on the larger rotor.

Just for the backing plate for the OEM rotors - we're estimating $275 for the pair.

I noticed a lot of break fade last hill run, so I'll be looking in to this when it comes out. How bad is the install?

It's not too bad.
Remove wheel
Remove Caliper + Rotor
Remove wheel speed sensor
Remove hub: 4 bolts. Dust shield comes off at this point
Install backing plate
Install wheel speed sensor
Install Rotor + Caliper
Trim the inner fender lining slightly to allow room for hose to pass through.
Unbolt the windshield washer tank to route hose past it.
No special tools required other then your standard wrenches / sockets and a cutter of some sort.

So this would be a good time to change my pads and lines. Thank you

Yes most definitely!
If you're gonna do all of that make sure you have DOT 4 Brake fluid...

Hp+ pads, and stop tech lines for the front along with a couple bottles of RBF 600 are sitting in a closet waiting to go on/in

does the washer bottle get put back?

Oh yes.
It's just very difficult to feed the hose with the washer fluid tank there.
You just have to unbolt it to route the hose, and bolt it back up.

Our backing plates should be arriving any day now.

A nice option instead of the fog light piece for BRZ limited owners would be an adapter piece to screw in place (since we can unscrew the foglights themselves) to mount the ducting to, might be dandy.

Or this already an option?
