HRDPARK FR-S Build

Hey guys, purchased my 2013 Raven FR-S about 3 weeks ago and am slowly starting to modify it. I traded my 2009 tC RS 5.0 for it and am extremely happy with my choice. I will get pictures up as soon as I can. I will also try my best to update here on my upgrades. Hope to meet up with some of you here in the Glendale/Phoenix area.

So far...
-A'pexi power intake filter
I was searching for ever for a filter that I felt comfy throwing in my car and from the research I did It ended up being this one. I'm happy with my over all decision.

-Window Tint
5% up front with 15% out back, All I have to say is ARIZONA!

-Cusco front tower brace with brake booster stopper
I have yet to track my car so I truly can not tell a difference yet.

-Kartboy shift knob
For the price I got it for I had to pick it up!

-Cusco short carbon antenna
Being such a minor change IMHO I'm happy with it, goes good with the black!

-Custom made muffler delete
Once I had this made and i threw it on I truly fell more in love with the car. I love the tips I chose, other than the fact that the left one is now a slight shade darker inside due to my recent install of a catless front pipe.

-Invidia catless front pipe
After throwing this on real quick in the garage with a friend my mind was blown!! At first it was a bit to loud for me but then it just grew on me! Ive been asked many times what header I have, I always just smile and say "stock header."

-Perrin Intake tube (red)
The intake tube paired with the filter sounds very nice and gives me that seat of the pants power increase!

-Pioneer Appradio 3
Watched the price for about a week on Amazon and snatched it when it went down. Just put it in last night 8-09-13 and so far I love it!

-Soon to come...
Rally Armor flaps, Tein S techs, Cusco rear strut bar, Cusco AOS, Kartboy short throw shifter...Stay tuned!

This is just a quick picture I took with my new camera and some light editing. I hope to progress with my photography skills!
