Hah nice. Yeah the difference is something that has to be experienced. I'd honestly buy a used FRS as a daily here in a couple of years when I can pick one up for <$10k.

Headlights are finally available. Here is the for sale thread.

No expense was spared and every possible upgrade is included. These are OEM, not aftermarket lamps. Mod list:

Full matte black interior (except area behind boomerang optics)
Blue Projector Housing Interior (only shows up in sunlight behind the lens, does not light up blue)
STI-R Lens Swap - Washer Modded for Color Band
Luxeon Rebel x7 Turn Signal - 1000 Lumen Per Side with Optics
Brighter Boomerangs with Proper Current Sources
Sealed with OCI Butyl Rubber Glue

Pictures:















Comparison of the Boomerang Brightness Difference




Here's a video of the brighter boomerangs and Luxeon Rebel turn signals in action.
