Oh Sh** It's Here!!! :P

My BRZ came home today, it's dead sexy. Drove 120 miles today, came home and took some glamour shots.

Looks sharp! Nice pictures, too. I've gotta see this garage!

Do you have four bolts on the front plate? My front plate holder only has the two at the top, and isn't tall enough to cover the bottom. I actually spent a couple of hours last night installing cheap, black metal license plate frames. I had to "fake" the bottom bolts to make it look right. Little things like that are funny: both my MINI and my BMW have/had provisions for mounting with all four holes. It looks much better that way…

Sony,

Sorry I missed you at Cityside. I brought mine home yesterday too. Your pictures look great! I wish I had such a nice place to keep mine.

Is it just me, or does having a great new car make you even more nervous around distracted drivers?

Dan

Congrats Sony!

We have matching inspection stickers!

Now the State Troopers will leave me alone for not having one

It doesn't leak but I have drip pans under the engine and transmission just in case.

Yea, only that one spot is mine, the others are for the other 5 units. I am the only one with a garage lift though. However we all have electrical installed for one.

Just broke 1000 miles! Tomorrow I will change the oil and replace it with Penzoil Ultra 0w-20.

Also my buddy Chris (TheEngineer) just got his BRZ, we went for a cruise on the pike and got a ton of looks. Also went and got Xpel Ultimate film installed on his BRZ too. I got my Xpel Ultimate installed at Unique Car Care in Wakefield. I cannot recommend them more highly, they rock, I'm taking my car back there next week to get Opti-coated and a 20% window Tint.

Some more pics!









Chris got the GBS

Looks great, Sony; nice pics! What'd the clear bra cost? I've already got a small ding in the nose. I'm expecting to spend roughly a grand on a bra.

What's the benefit of Opti-coat? Why wouldn't you do that before the clear bra?

Opti-Coat essentially "thickens" your clear coat, making it more resistant to scratches and swirls. Makes it easier to clean too
because its easier for the Clear bra to stick to the clear coat, then to the Opticoat.

I hope not, man! We only charge like $6-700 to do 3M Ventureshield clear bras to Porsches and Audis... (dealer cost is $300; if you pay a grand you're getting raped!)
