Army-Inspired FRS with Louvres
 
Bit the bullet and ordered the louvres. After the came in I knew I'd made the right decision and that they'd go with the theme. Enjoy.

Thanks. It's definitely something you don't see everyday. Changes between an Olive Drab in the shade and a metallic gold in the sun/fluorescent light

Thanks. Wish I had the means and the funds for a supercharger as that's what it's really missing.

Ha. I've had a lot of people tell me they hated the louvres in pictures but when they saw the car in person that it changed their mind.

I actually saw this featured somewhere before you posted it. Interesting

ngabdala 06-25-2014 11:02 AM

I wish I had the means for a BMW M4 :sigh:

I saw "Army Themed" and thought wow, how ultra gay will this ride be?


Car looks great btw, especially the wheels and color, I'd change the name of the theme though lol

Namuna 06-25-2014 11:21 AM

Man, the more I see these louvres the more I really like them. Really wish they didn't cost so much!

Malt 06-25-2014 11:37 AM

Wow... I must say I thought louvers would look terrible on 86's but your car looks amazing. Very nice!

Lol. Not to shabby.

Jive Turkey 06-25-2014 04:38 PM

looks good. needs moar tire IMO

liewyel 06-25-2014 05:05 PM

Done perfectly. Kudos!

BRZNutt 06-25-2014 08:48 PM

Excellent execution. I just wish they didn't cut out the lower slat on the louvres to keep the 3rd brake light visible. Stupid safely regulations...

daftpunk 06-25-2014 09:14 PM

Lovin' your car!!

HeadBanger 06-27-2014 07:40 PM

Looks awesome!


BTW, where did you get that exhaust cut-out filler type thing?

ineedboost 06-27-2014 11:12 PM

Looks awesome. Is that paint or a wrap?

CoupedUpSubie 06-27-2014 11:16 PM

Where's the 50 cal? I expected a FRS killdozer.

hmong337 06-27-2014 11:44 PM

Going to echo the others, I don't like that color and I don't like louvers, but on this car it 100% works. Awesome job. Car looks awesome.

Verticalx 09-07-2014 04:12 AM

Nice looking. Where did you ordered your Louvers?

Japan Parts. Like $1150 shipped and with fees paid.

serial gixxer 09-13-2014 03:33 PM

Like others have said . Dude your car is so fucking bad ass. Perfect color, perfect rim choice, and would not be the same without the louvers. Well executed my friend.

calmtigers 09-13-2014 03:58 PM

Car looks sweet but can't help to think that black or grey rims would look amazing on the car.

Pickleahoy 09-14-2014 07:22 PM

Amazing looking except for the black license plate strip. Makes it look like Hitler

Simok 09-15-2014 09:46 PM

That color is awesome!!

Fastbrew 09-15-2014 10:01 PM

Nice combo. Looks solid.

JDMenrique 09-17-2014 04:07 PM

first thing that came to mind was:

"ARRRRMY TRAININGGG SIR!"

Nice build.

Flat Black VW 09-17-2014 04:28 PM

Im a huge fan of the color and the louvers, I would like to see more tire and a darker color wheel choice, but thats just my opinion.

boucher 09-18-2014 09:50 AM

Yeah @ShutterSpeed, you definitely need darker wheels and more tire.

Looks great!
But for a more "tank like" appearance here are the rims for you...
