Well, I bought some black suede to wrap some of my interior panels to match the suede on my seats.

Gonna tackle this when wifey gets home.

Will be doing the dash panels plus the one right above the instrument cluster.

Went to this Korean only car club last night. Most of them are fobs.

A lot of cool people with nice cars though.

Here are couple pics:

By the way, my wife is going to shop another suede fabric for me. She said the one that I bought is not stretchy enough to make the installation clean.

Red them out when you get bored woot wooot

I am in the same boat. I don't want any drone in this car, I want it loud though.
There is f.ing at least 80 double tip catbacks for this friggen car

But I came down to 3 options that has no drone, just rumle and nice deep tone.

Stock
38.5 LBS
2.11" Diameter Piping

Zeta
35 LBS
2.36" Diameter Piping
4.5" Tip
4 HP
5 TQ
$409 from $760 (On sale)
Production Date September 2012

Perrin 2.5 Resonated
39.5 LBS
2.50" Diameter
4" Tip
7 HP
6 TQ
$880
Mother of Subie

Greedy Supreme SP
34.8 LBS
2.50" Diameter
4.5" Tip
6 HP
7.5 TQ
$795
Production Date Just came out


I can't decide but might go with Perrin or Greedy though
Greedy because has better exhaust tips and I think a bit louder than Perrin.
Perrin has a great deep tone though... as I know

Nameless was the first one that I aimed for, but from the videos I couldn't love the sound with stock headers.

This UEL sounds super, but it still doesn't have that deep rumble that I want


This kind of rumble is what I love
TRD with UEL header is exactly what I wanted too but, expensive


I won't take a step before hearing them in person but, last monday, there was 20+ 86s at the night meet, none of them had UEL
We meet every monday around Boston

Three of my friends have Nameless exhausts. One with stock header, one with the Nameless header and the Sprintex kit (used to have an UEL Borla), and another with a header I can't remember the specs on. I love the way it sounds. There's very little drone on the highway from any of these combos, and on this car, any exhaust with a header is going to be loud.

I'll try to dig up some videos of their cars.

Of course BRZ is better! HA!

Blacked out headlight looks really good. Hmmm. The Boomerang LED pops out much more.

I always loved BRZ front end more.
Not saying FRS looks ugly, looks great with those bumper add-ons of GT86, but BRZ looks meaner and more sharp stance in the front-end to me.

Well. This didn't last long.

I'm buying this used for $220 locally tonight.

The one that I wanted. Clear/Red Valenti.

No joke the car scene in LA is just more... dense. There isn't much for sale around here, not even within an hour drive. Not stuff that I want, anyway.
