I would like to see Verus make this, but won't get one due to already having the TRD canard garnish which would be opened up in the rear (triangular section) for exhausting if I ever wanted to go that route. More of DIY guy with stuff I already have or have ideas to get specifically for modifying purposes. Also going with a custom design DIY diffusor because Verus simply doesn't have one that takes advantage of removal of the entire fake stock section and a custom center exit exhaust. Might have gone with them if they did, but still have strong DIY urges that must be met... LOL.

The custom DIY stuff on my FR-S consists of intake tubing from airbox to throttlebody & noise generator delete, mount for Radium Air/oil separator fabbed/welded to stock passenger strut brace, theaded rod adapted for securing Hawker Odyssey PC680MJ battery to P-Tuning battery tray, mounting plates made for FIA GT3 compliant sedan side race mirrors, brackets fabbed for Recaro Sportster drivers seat & slider, custom designed and fabbed rear center exit exhaust system from all Burns Stainless components. Shortly to include custom designed diffusor system and modding optional factory aero underpanel set with provision for removeable center tunnel block off panels (via floating nut plates.)

I’d for sure sell my STi side skirts for Verus street side skirts, but I don’t think they’ll make it because it’ll be so heavy in ABS form.

I think the 2 cars that get the street side skirt are the Miata and focus rs, but those are only horizontal skirts, not horizontal and vertical like us.

Well I have to eat my words because they did make it.

I really wish someone would just make something like this but without the stupid emblem. I would buy it today! An actual vent would just be a bonus.
