Starting Up- Cosmetic Mods

Whats up guys, I recently got my scion fr-s like 3 months ago and i'm extremely interested in adding kits and changing parts to my car. My knowledge for parts is kinda low so i'm in need of some help (just slight tips or helpful things to learn) plus i'm young so i'm just starting.


What i want:
TRD body kit
Perrin Performance 3" catback exhaust
Avante garde m310 18x9.0 +30 black rims
Valenti Red/chrome tail lights
LED headlights (don't know any specifics yet)

I have several questions if anyone can help out:

I was wondering if there are any quad tip exhausts other then the trd one because it's overpriced (imo) and i don't like the sound.

Also i was wondering if there are any interior led lights for the fr-s (I'm sure there are but i haven't really seen any.)

Thanks in advance

For quad tips^

For led interior lights do a search here on the forums. There are a bunch of vendors offering interior kits.

Google search is your friend. Try using key words there are alot of helpful threads that usually exist before you post and some people on the forums may flame you for not searching. Try adding ft86.com after the key words on Google

don't waste your time with 'led headlights'.. the kits they sell are an absolute joke in output.

Well heres a noob question then, do they make a huge difference? I just want all my lights to be white instead of yellow(the little turn signal thing) and i want white fog lights.

I think the J2 Exhaust is quad tip.

If you're going with OEM TRD kit, it'll run you around $1500 before shipping. But there are many replicas, some ABS material ones on ebay for $300. But obviously, you'll get what you pay for.

$1,700 is a lot for a replica, and fiberglass as well. you can get a polyurethane one from a different vendor for much less, around $700-$800 shipped. For $1,700 you can buy a carbon fiber TRD replica kit from Version Select and have it painted. $1,700 for a replica fiber glass kit is way too much.
