Autocon's Pretty White Princess
Hey everyone, my name is Anthony Vaccaro, I live in Los Angeles and this will be my journal for my 2014 Whiteout FRS. I am really new to the whole car scene so I am learning as I go. This is the first new car I ever owned, as well as paid for myself. I was never SUPER into cars but I am now hooked!
I have named her Yuki, its Japanese for Snow which is fitting having a Whiteout and being a Toyubaru. I also got to take my first trip to Japan a month before I bought her so it seemed fitting. She is my pretty little princess haha I went with the AT mainly because I live and work in LA and traffic is the fucking devil. But I normally drive in Manual Spots mode. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Current Mods
Nov 27th 2013 - I signed all the paper work and took her home March 20th 2014 - Plasti dipped my emblems and custom license plate. April 6th 2014 - Tinted windows (35% rear 50% sides) and lots of Santa Monica mountain driving April 25th 2014 - Sharkin antena April 28th 2014 - Plasti dipped my rims red (4 coats, 2 gloss) and took some pics of her down in San Diego when visiting my mom. May 11th 2014 - First track day ever with my buddy Andres and his Miata. So much fun! Streets of Willow May 14th 2014 - Installed my Valenti tail lights, fucking love these! First real car part install ever July 10th 2014 - Had my ForceWerkz V2 front lip professionally installed as I am to afraid to drill holes in my car ha July 17th 2014 - Rexspeed wide angle mirrors installed, goodbye blindspot! July 24th 2014 - Installed my Helix Clear side markers with amber LED's Last edited by Autocon; 08-13-2014 at 02:15 PM. |

August 10th 2014 - Installed my Nameless 2.5" 4" Axleback. Getting the stock exhaust off was a BITCH! The bolts were totally seized up and almost had to pay someone to get them off for me. Finally got them off so I could install it myself
100 miles in and I kinda wish I went with the 5" mufflers. Its a bit loud for a DD, most notably on the freeway cruising. Feels like it has a bit of a drone as I can always hear it. I heard these guys break in at about a week or 2 so we will see. Sounds phenomenal on the street and in the hills though! Just dont like that I always hear it when cruising the freeway. |

Very similar build to mine. May I ask what your nameless order # was and how you installed the forcewerkz lip?

While crunching at work on a Sunday for a deadline I went down in the parking garage to do a little photoshoot since the place so empty
A bolt in my Godspeed tow hook seemed to fall out and I almost lost my tow hook entirely |
