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.





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.

7 continued:

alright so my mission to get rid of all chrome is almost complete, baked my headlights today. have yet to see someone do this to a brz. FRS guys have been doing this for a while already.



these are the major two pieces of the headlight.



i hit the blinkers with this:



that way they are black but still maintain the reflective ability like stock.



masked off so that the rest remains gloss black while all the chrome was painted with flat black enamel.



also installed my Hella horns today. finally no more quiet flimsy horns. these things will be heard



these are the led's split with the cover. as you can see all you need to paint is the cover. also anyone who wanted could now overlay the LED strip in any color they would like, might be kind of cool but i decided to keep it clear.



and presto!







i'll get some more shots later. this took me and my buddy ALL DAY. if anyone will do this, just take your time and be patient especially with paint drying. trust me you dont want to rush this.

I liked how Grimmspeed put the stock 2011 WRX wheels on the BRZ. I think it looked great.

7.5 max...Bah! 17x9 fits nicely.



Plus, imagine how much drawings can fit on four wheel boxes!

If you are putting on 2011+ WRX's 17x8 wheels they won't clear brembos without a 3mm spacer. Also you might need longer studs if you go that route.

Im waiting till spring to do brembos. No need for all that stopping power with soft winter tires and by then my new wheels SHOULD arrive.

But yes i need a cheap 17x7/7.5 that clears brembos. Ill probably get some cheap oz or enkei
