Agreed the other plus for borla is I think if you can get it from the dealer you shouldnt have to worry about voiding your warranty since its a dealer option.

Personally, I went with the Borla UEL headers first. Then Injen intake, and Perrin headerback exhaust. Then Visconti tune. :D

but those are what I liked. You should definitely search the Technical Topics and see what mods would feel right for you. I decided by sound and power for the exhaust, and I knew I wanted a UEL header, because I think a boxer motor should have the boxer burble.

Congrats!

Some relatively inexpensive mods that will improve the looks of the FRS:

1) 2 inch shorty radio antenna or sharkfin antenna

2) Tom's or Crystaleye taillights

3) Clear sidemarkers

4) Larger exhaust tips

This man speaks the truth. The clear side markers alone make a WORLD of difference. Add a shark-fin and viola. Magic car.

I have found that looking at the thread of what did you do to your FRS today:

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11036

And member journals:

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=40

are a great source of ideas for what you may eventually want to do to your car.

There is a wide assortment of things and prices that one can do.

Personally, I have only gone with low cost mods: Tint, exhaust tips, Console plaque (to fill the divot in the console where the heated seat switches would be (if the FR-S had them)), LED lights for the dome, trunk, license plate, and reverse lights.

Just keep yours tasteful, otherwise, you might want to put your flamesuit on.:flame:

Congrats and welcome to the forum. I found there are plenty of DYIs that you can mod on your car. So, take your time to read the DYI section. I learn a ton by reading there.
