BRZ Carbon Access Key cover

Straight from Japan, uber JDM freshness, here is what $100 gets you.








Sticks on with adhesive, and I lose my panic button...
Now WTF am I suppose to push when I panic?

Was it worth it?


Yes.

I love myself...but not that much.

STI push button and shift knob were bling enough for me.

Yes, I got it at JP, initially I thought I was going to receive a new fob and I'd just have to take my key out and put it in. The picture and the price tag was deceiving, call it an impulse buy lol.

Even a empty carbon fiber fob would be better at $100. I wouldn't mind switching guts and key over. I can probably wrap my fob in 3m 1080 for a third the cost.

I really like the BRZ logo on it. Anyone know of anything else with that logo on it?

Very cool except that it's plastic and not real CF. A.K.A. not worth $100 'cause it likely costs <$1 to produce.
