FReSh's Raven FRS
 

I was originally planning on having my car around March 28th, but got a call from the dealership saying that it had come in early. :w00t:

Picked it up that day, March 20th, with 7 miles on it.

I will continue updating this thread as I work on my car. Cheers. :thumbsup:

OptiCoat and Tints!
 

I took a drive down to Hillsboro to visit @Greg Gellas and Lee Berbs! The results speak for themselves! 35% Madico tint and an Opti. Even got a thumbs up from some dude in an SC300 on my drive home. :party0030:

Hawttt

The twins DEFINITELY look great in black! Nice going!

Agreed. There was a BRZ at the shop today in the grey color with the spoiler. Made me happy that I went with black and no spoiler. It was still super nice though!

Just ordered some XXR 530 18x8.75 +33 in chromium black from next level motoring. They're out of stock at the moment, but I can wait... Need to decide on tires soon. 225-40's or 245-35's (or even 235-40's?). Once the rims come in, I'll get tires, the Eibach Pro kit springs and the camber bolts for the front and get it aligned to ~ -1.5* camber all around. Should be sweet!

Here are some pics from a cruise:

It was fun trying to keep up with a modded C63 AMG with my stock fr-s in the twisties, I was pretty close. :)

Wheels came in early. Should have them installed by the end of the week! I ordered a set of Continental ExtremeContact DW's in 225-40-18. Can't wait to see em mounted up!

Got the wheels and tires installed today. XXR 530 18x8.75 +33 Chromium Black with Contie DW 225-40-18's. Enjoy. NEEDS MORE LOW! (Eibach Pro-kit soon)

Those wheels look killer, especially on a raven :thumbsup:

Yeah, I wasn't 100% sure I'd like the color of the wheels on the black car, but I think it came out great. I put some rally armor mud flaps on today since the tires poke a little bit and I don't want dirt all up the side of the car... Here are some pics:

I also went for a little cruise and did some exploring. I found this road: :)

Cheers!

Wow this is looking great ! keep it coming !

I'm working on it. My bank account is suffering though :( I think springs and camber bolts should be soon to come next month.

Just ordered up an Eibach Pro-kit. Hoping it'll be in by this weekend, but thats not likely.

Finally got the Pro-kit and camber bolts installed. Pics:

Its a little dirty in this pic since I just got back form a mini road trip...

The springs ride surprisingly well. I haven't really noticed a difference from stock honestly. It has a little bit less body roll too. All said and done, it looks much nicer, so I am pleased :)
