Driven it, lol, after 1 month of it sitting in the garage due to bad weather.

Funny little story from the car park at the dyi store: I found a nice tucked away parking spot miles away from other cars, and there was a tidy white F-type Jaguar parked even further away, so I parked about 2 spots next to it.

As I was walking back to the Supra later on out of the shop, I saw a dude walking towards it, and I knew he must have be the Jag owner as there were no other cars after mine, and caught him taking a cheeky photo of the Supra and mirin' quickly as he walked past it ?
I love those moments, he was kind of reluctant to be seen mirin' the Supra as he had to make sure people knew his F Type was cooler ??

Anyhow, 20 seconds later as I got to the Supra and he was getting in, he then realized I saw the whole thing while I was behind him, lol then proceeded to cold start the Jag and belittled my stock B58 sound ??

I added a matte black NINTE spoiler. Super cheap like $170. Subtle but I think I like it. light and easy to install.

What’s the difference between one’s like this and one’s that look the same for $700+?
Like most things, with our consumeristic culture in the short term the difference may be barely noticeable, but surely, if the two spoilers were compared in similar conditions over a longer period of time (years) it's likely the more expensive one might be better built and last longer in terms of fitment/color decay/fade/gaps etc. it's also a nice 'bragging' right or pride to buy something more premium or supporting a brand.

Anyone denying this concept is likely in denial, because everyone has something in life they like to buy, could be food/alcohol/clothes/holidays whatever, where they'll make a big deal and a point about why buying the expensive version is better than the chump change version, so why don't we all quit playing so smart and preaching when you're saving a few bucks, and just let people spend their money however the fuck they want?

Had the AWE Non-Resonated Touring exhaust installed at the back.

And the BimmerTech Front Parking Camera installed on the front.

The AWE exhaust is fucking mint. Looks and sounds great.. it's a proper sports car now. I was a little apprehensive of how big the tips were but I think they look just about right in person.

The BimmerTech camera looks pretty neat and gets the job done. Having said this, accessing the camera is a little clunky and the image is pretty potato quality but it will make destroying my front plate/splitter a little more difficult.
