Tylub's Raven Black FR-S (Pics)
Hello, I thought I would start a journal since I have been modding my car here and now and I like to take pictures and look at my progress, so here it is
I picked up my car on July, Friday the 13th! (lucky lol) HISTORY my car history began on may 6, 2011 and I got an rx8 r3 because that was my dream car. What more could I want? bose, bucket seats, aero kit, sport bilstein suspension, suicide doors, and the rotary engine. Driving it was great but in august of 2011, some idiot in a pickup was playing with his phone and radio and smashed into my car in the rear quarter panel and put $17,000 worth of damage into my car. I loved my car so i made my insurance keep it and fix whatever we could. fast forward to april 09, another accident... this time as I was making a U-turn on a green arrow, an old lady runs a red and smashes into me at 50 mph, launching me onto the curb and totaling my car. the car had $38,000 worth of damage, bent frame, etc. that became a bust and broke me heart. Thus, I got some insurance money and picked up a little fiat 500c, that little sucker was fun to drive but lacked the power needed to get around and on long drives and uphill, the poor little engine sounded like it was going to explode. traded that in for the FR-S and here we are! Engine -Perrin LW Crank Pulley Exhaust -Perrin Headerback (over pipe, catted front pipe, non-resonated catback) Wheels -Rota Grids staggered 18x8.5 (225/40/18) 19x9.5 (255/35/18) Hankook Ventus V12 Springs -CG 35mm Lowering Springs Lights -6k HID's -Custom Blackout Housing -Morimoto xB Angel Eyes -F_T LED DRL's -Cree Reverse Lights -LED Turn Signals Interior -Full LED Light Swap Exterior -Rally Armor Mud Flaps -Grimmspeed License Plate Relocator Future Mods -Turbo -Tommy Kaira Spoiler -Rear Diffuser/Under panel -Big Brake Kit -Coilovers -Tune -Flex Fuel Kit -Aero Kit -Beatsonic Shark Fin -Beatsonic Roof Spoiler w/ 3rd Brake Light Relocator
