BDotG's - Asphalt Antibunny FR-S
Just figured I'd throw my car up here so I can actually start keeping track of how much i've done to this thing over time and how much money I am putting into it. hah.
Anyways, I picked up this lightly used 2013 FR-S in February of 2015 and have loved every day since. Most Recent pics. Acquired some RPF1s! :D http://i.imgur.com/Bl0oIth.jpg http://i.imgur.com/oGUQIzF.jpg http://i.imgur.com/HvZoVGa.jpg Old Pics https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...06066945_o.jpg https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...56638874_o.jpg https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...32302800_o.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ztSTVEV.jpg |
New Parts have slowly trickled in.
Got my FT86 SF Race splitter the other day, but still waiting on the hardware to install it :p Next up is a set of RPF1s. Although may wait til spring for those :/ |
Exhaust?

That's right. I think I read another thread where you posted about it. Looks way better than stock.

Got my FT86 Speed Factory Splitter + Race Upgrade installed finally! :D Now I just need my passwordjdm canards to show up.

Looking great! I came from a 2010 Mazda3 and even it's modded for sport driving. It's a great step up from it.
|
Picked up my Password:JDM Canards and installed them. Sploosh. Love them with the splitter.

Wow I love those wheels! What kind of tires are you running?

Where's the wing at!?

Kind of leaning towards the SARD wing. Need to get my RPF1s and new Tires first though. |
Finally decided on a spoiler, just went with a TRD rep off ebay. $170usd painted. The fitment is spot on and the color match is perfect. Super pleased with it.
http://i.imgur.com/0Fv3owz.jpg http://i.imgur.com/EzoCDfR.jpg New wheels should be here in January as well, currently rocking it in winter mode on the stocks. |
Started my interior work, starting with some carbon fiber wrap! Never attempted vinyl before but I am super pleased with how it turned out!

So I decided on a change of plans, was going to buy some RPF1s in bronze, but the Canadian economy sucks so bad id be looking at close to $2000 for a 17x9 set.
I ended up ordering some XXR 550s in Bronze - 18x8.75, will be mounting some 245/40/18s on then (brand tbd). Lots of travel plans in the new year so spending over $3000 on a wheel and tire set just does not make any sense. Should be pretty pleased with them though! http://cdn3.volusion.com/5ehx2.gysj4...jpg?1430313669 |
What roof spoiler are you using?

Picked up a MTX-D oil gauge and vent pod, and after a huge ordeal involving wrong wires, a dropped, many frustrating hours, and cracked TRD sandwich plate (which I didn't notice until oil shot all over my engine bay) and the quick shipping from rally sport direct on a new beatrush plate I finally got it all working and sorted. HUGE THANK YOU to @malave7567 for the super deal on the gauge, and his incredible patience on helping to get it work.

That sucks about the dropped and cracked TRD sandwich plate. I liked that little piece, lol.
I'm glad we finally got everything squared away for you. |
Got my new wheels today! Really excited to get them put on. Stupid winter.

Do you remember the vendor of the spoiler? I'd love to get one painted for that price!
Thanks! Quote:

@BDotG really digging this. It's funny, I hate the canards when you're looking at it from the front, but from every other angle, they look so good. Everything about this build is perfect. So simple.

I have noticed you posting on my thread for a bit but never looked at your car. It looks great! I recognize your car from the Velox Intagram post. I like the anti-bunny theme. Sub'd.

Went for a cruise with some local ft86 guys today. Was pretty great.

Been working on a few interior projects. The carbon vinyl I used really sucked and bubbled super quickly. Decided to do a high gloss black paint.
http://i.imgur.com/SWQF7a9.jpg Also decided to mold out the coin tray on the center console and am going to get it wrapped in Alcantara. Same goes with the dash piece. http://i.imgur.com/4Ia54DG.jpg Also some other big news! Sold the XXRs and am picking up something magical on Saturday. All I can say is that I am going to be dropping 9 pounds per corner. http://i.imgur.com/EiU5tg4.jpg |
The hype is so real. Picking these up tomorrow morning. If my math is correct (which it usually never is) but I figure about a 9-10 pound per corner difference between these and the xxrs with tires.
