Hi all, new member here. Picked up a black frs in march. i am still debating to what extent i want to mod this car. i use this as a daily driver to get to work and see clients if i need to in the city. this is the 2nd car i have ever owned and my first jdm car. here are some pics i took with my cls. all 4 tires blew on the cls, so stock rims are on for now. enjoy!

these are mods i want if i were to mod it. i also want to keep the cost down and keep it simple.
forgestars f14 19x8.5, 19x9.5
greddy exhaust
megan ezstreet coilovers.
just any kind of front lip and trunk spoiler.

I think you should put some tribal on it or on the inside. Also maybe paint your headlights red... Might look kind of cool.

i just joined the forum yesterday and the guy who did that to his car was the first thread i read on here. not going to hate, but not my style.

I have to ask... how did you blow all 4 tires... is it a black edition with the 800tq or something... lol.

Congratulations! :-)
You wouldn't think so when reading this forum, but it is actually a great car when its completely stock :-)
I am keeping my GT86 unmodified, intending to enjoy the 5 year warranty on it and the high resale value. The only problem with that is I don't have anything to brag about in here.

Welcome to the forum. Don't feed the animals.

God I would kill for a gt86 unmodified

I think new rims, some wider tires, look good. I am not sure how 19's will look. I am more of a minimalist, the most I see myself doing on the exterior would be tint, new rims (probably 18's but might just keep 17's and get wider tires and nicer looking rims).

Exhaust would be good as long as it is minimalist and nothing crazy looking (like neon green exhaust tips).

Personally I don't like spoilers (even though my BRZ Limited has one stock), so I would skip that unless it is very minimalist. A giant wing on the back of any car looks very "Fast And The Furious" rice to me.

19" wheels on this car are considered rice.

from camber wear. the metal wiring in the tires were popping out. i was running 305's at the back so i needed a little camber some it won't rub.

i don't really care for performance so that is the reason why i want 19's. i saw a few pictures online of frs's running 19's and i think it looks great. i just want a simple rear spoiler and front so my won't look too stock if i put rims on.
