LIVE SEMA 2012 Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ Picture Thread - Page 12 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

yeah that thing was kinda nasty. Though some of the other cars, mine included, a huge issue was time. I'm sure many owners will be resolving some of their ill fitting parts after sema. Personally, I recieved my ED body kit with only 7 business days to have it fitted and painted, but my painter failed to understand what a deadline was, thus the kit was painted one day before leaving and never properly fitted. With that said, SEMA was awesome and the fr-s took over the show and its only been out for a few months. I can only imagine the awesome parts and vehicles that we will see next year.

<-- Liked Tom's car as well. Not saying it was a bad idea to use the trim. Just an option.

I didn't even notice the cardboard there. Living the event through a viewfinder can narrow your field of vision. Thanks for pointing that out.

LOL WTF!?

That looks like Alumalite, it's a material used to make signs. A lot of race cars use this because its light and strong.

It's two layers with a plastic medium in the sandwich.

Modification... overload... Brain... shutdown...

SO many nice cars! And SO many rice cars... but that's OK. I need MOAR INFO on that Sprintex/Innovate supercharger!!

It's good to learn something new...hopefully that's what it is.

Thanks for the photos. I still think Evasive was my fav.

Anyone else want more coverage this year? I'm going to try to enlist another photographer...

Time goes by so quickly!

I'll be that photographer! I've been to SEMA before, but wasn't planning on going this year.
