Yep, simple enough. 3 steps I believe. I think there is a little video on youtube. Although read the full instructions carefully just in case there are bits you may have missed. Only bit I struggled on was when you lightly touch the paint with your finger to smooth it out, it didn't quite work with mine, it basically just come off on the glove and I would have to re-apply it, I kept doing that for ages lol. Maybe I didn't leave it long enough before touching with glove as the chap below leaves it a few seconds before touching it as he is doing 3 at once.

Yes I used chipex. Worked quite well. See pics in my build thread. Link Edit: I have noticed loads of little chips when I cleaned it the other day so I will give those a go one day, when the weather is a bit more predictable. I'll try and get some before and after pics.

Welcome. I assume that's the new model BRZ? I think the new BRZ's look better than the new GT86's.
-
Welcome. Red is best. Keep an eye on the events and meets.

Fancy stickers I had to trim the avengers down due to the awkward shape of the rear quarter, may have cut a bit too much off the hulk than I should have done. He might get angry now! The lovely turbo snail provided by @GT86Jay. I guess I have to get a turbo now.

Yay can't wait to see/hear the R400. I would imagine it cost a lot.
-
I think quite rare? only because I believe it was a really expensive extra so most people didn't bother with it. You do slide about on the leather seats though; but then I do keep cleaning them so makes them really slippery It probably is, I had just cleaned it, clayed it and polished it.
-
Good thinking, maybe I should attempt to wrap mine in a light/thin black shade... I'll add it to my ever growing mod list.
-
With this hot weather I was finding it unbearable getting into the car, so thought I would get the back windows tinted. Also add a bit more black/dark colours to it. Can't really see them that well in the pics I have taken, cleaned it and it's too shiny to see in the pics.
-
Very nice, coming along. Yellow lights on my red GT86 won't look right. You wrapped the lights? didn't think that was possible, but I know nothing about it.
-
Haha that's ok, I was hoping someone could see something that I am missing. I noticed they use their own discs.

Do you want the good news or the bad news?

@ChrisKnottIns From a friend... "Point 4 - Expensive technology in cars increase... Expensive cars full of tech should pay higher premiums if this is true, don't pass the cost onto people with simpler more basic cars." -
@TTR well AP racing for a 332mm front disc 4 pot (so similar? Brembo is 330mm and 4pot) on amber the AP Racing is around £2350. The Brembo Gran Turismo on amber are £3000! but they are different sizes. Stop Tech on Fensport 328mm and 4 pot are £2000 The only BBK I have seen that are similar price is the K-Sport. Brembo is a big name too.

I'll be in touch when mine is due. I'm relying on you to give me the best deal. -
How come they are so cheap? Am I missing something. Something with similar sizes is almost double?
-
Yea it did that for me. I really hate photobucket now. I'm using flickr, no issues yet.
-
Might be interested... There is a club signup too, with 8 free tickets and goodybags!! I want a goodybag! I bet it has a lolly in it, I want a lolly. "Exhaust Sound Competitions - Free Entry for Ticket holders" @Ztox You better enter Edit: Never mind, goodybags are before a certain date. I'll have to make an appointment for my local doctors just to get lolly's now.
-
Same. Through the back of the glove box so you can't see anything.
-
Looks ok to me.
-
Especially in the GT86/BRZ
-
I used this site to get an idea of sizes, arch gaps, differences to speedo, differences to suspension strut etc. Just put in your current size and fiddle about with some new sizes. Oh and there is even a handy little diagram.
-
Thanks @Nimz real pain to clean though. I'm waiting on the amazon sale for a cheap wheel brush, as the one I have doesn't quite fit in between the spokes. I just realised we could have made that car picture better, we had 2 whites, 2 reds, 2 oranges and 1 blue. We could have put them symmetrical. Missed opportunity.

Quick clean after my first ever TSS; which was so fun. Added some stickers provided by @GT86Jay Made me chuckle when I first saw it, hopefully it will make someone else giggle when they see it as I drive by, make the world a little bit happier. A nice pic taken from TSS at Kendrew.

Ops sorry for the slow answer. I assume it's real, I bought the car with it already on. I used chipex.
