Yes it is held by very strong automotive grade 3M body panel fixture tape, good to withstand 60psi of pulling force, so anyone trying to pry it off will end up with a broken spoiler.

Hey Moto congrats!!!!


I just picked up my FRS last night, and I was wondering if maybe if it's possible that all of the First 86 in so cal should get together sometime before the end of this month, and do a cruise event together. It would be really cool to all ride out together. Please let me know what you think of the idea.

I am having this planned right now, and trying to get a LFA from HQ for us to follow along the drive.
That can't happen this month but likely sometime next month.

Awesome post! Congrats, this looks like a blast. I will give Scion/Toyota credit, they really are doing a great job with these events.

Very cool!

Moto, do you know the specs on the wheels of that white FRS with those goldish rims? They look like 18x8.

Also Moto, I know you and Ichi can probably answer this. But did you find a difference in acceleration between the manual and auto? I'm hoping the auto isn't a whole second slower but more like a .5 slower instead. Thanks!
