Ahh, I've been rear ended twice; people are so callous and are rarely careful.

any way reason for 7/7.5' that's because that is the winter setup. the tires i'm running for winter are 205/50/17 gislaved nordfrost 5 snow tires. thus i need a wheel to fit these on so it's not stupid stretched. however for summer i plan on coilovers and 18x9.5 +40 in 255/35 star specs. you think that will fit nicely? and i also want your springs, is the ride bouncy or saggy butt like basically all other because i want to run stock struts/mach v springs for winter. and coils for summer. and i'm clsoe with paisan, he keeps telling me i should buy the awesome's and once these winter tires shred i might just get them for winter with a 235 snow tire.

Hey Jive,
Sad to see you get rid of the STi. It was really amazing what you did with it and will always remain one of my all time favorites. I noticed in a picture somewhere that there was a snow button on the BRZ? I know we'll have to wait for snow but it should be coming very soon. Just want to know what the button does to help the BRZ in the snow? |

Im gonna call him and see how much to install because this will be the only mod i cant do due to lack of a spring compressor in my possession. |

thats why i want +40 because well i want too look goo but most important i want functionality. same thing i did with my sti. was good enough for pictures and shows but even better to drive Quote:
and there is so little out for these cars since they are new that i'm just going to wait a bit until i'm 100% certain in my choices for parts. and then there are people that mod them and do it all wrong, as demonstrated above |

so i had ordered a roll of alcantara and 1/8' foam because i knew that i wanted to get rid of all of that ugly silver trim.
i spend all night wrapping it all and this might have been one of the trickiest intalls I've ever had to do simply because this was my first time and wrapping curves and corners is incredibly hard. i now understand why JPM coach works stitches in the places they do. this isn't easy but i'm beyond happy with the results. i'll post some real pictures later, here are some cellphone snaps. i wrapped the silver dash pieces, the trim by the AC controls, the shifter surround, the steering wheel plastic, the circle vents, and also the door handles. |

Looks good, but the pieces on the dash with red stiching would look awesome.

How big a hit did you take on the trade-in due to the accident?

Wow that is awesome looking. I would love to do that to mine, how much is alcantara? Have you much experience with vinyl wrapping?
Damn though. Looks SO much better. |
