if lost maybe 2k on trade in versus if i sold it privately. honestly i got a deal that i dont think anyone would ever get because i pulled some serious strings

Damn though. Looks SO much better.
vinyl would be a million times easier than this. the alcantara is easy but i added foam behind it so it felt nicer on the dash/door handles/ac trim. the foam makes it so much harder because its thicker so tucking and wrapping becomes very difficult.

i paid a lot of $ because i got 5 yards of it





update 3:

i dont have the time to snap good photos, sorry but these quick cellphone snaps will have to do.

today i rebadged the trunk, got rid of that damn chrome fender trim, swapped ALL bulbs to led and then hooked up the JDM rear foglight.





the trim is mint and for sale if anyone is interested.

I like the alcantara wrap a lot more than the silver but now it is a sea of black...of course the pictures don't do it justice.

Is there a way you can do the same stitching that is done on the seats and shift boot? That'd look a lot better I think.

Oh and Dan's right, you gotta go way wider than 7.5...with appropriately sized tires of course.

Real question is, where are those wheels you were supposed to have painted?

well i was bored out of my mind today.

so i installed and hardwired my radar. http://www.iwsti.com/forums/how-inst...-into-brz.html

then i installed red out rear overlay. (still waiting on tails)





YAY FUN!!!





then i overlayed my front fogs and side reflectors, still waiting on the JDM reflectors so this is just temporary because i had nothing else to do. i'm partial on smoke over amber look but it looks so much better than all amber.







then i threw i a rope of LED's into the trunk because at night its too dim. now its really bright, yes i know red isn't for everyone but in person it looks great and matches the interior nicely.
