My FRS Build - Goal to make it look like it comes straight from Japanese Anime LOL
 
10 Attachment(s)
I bought my FRS back in August 2012 and I have been doing things to it constantly. Been lurking around these forums and finally decided to put up up my car and keep a log of the changes. So here goes:

Exterior
LED fog lights
Carbon Fiber Mirror Covers
Greddy Rocket Bunny Style Carbon Fiber Wing
Carbon Fiber Vortex Generator

Interior:
TRD Shift Knob
Carbon Fiber door handles
Carbon Fiber Radio trim and passenger trim
Carbon Fiber Gear Surround
Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Trim
Blind Spot Mirrors (I find this a must when driving this car, makes it much safer, cheapest thing here at 7 dollars from Amazon.com LOL)

Performance:
Volk Racing TE37SL 18x9, continental extremecontact dw
Vortech Supercharger
Full Custom Titanium Exhaust
Lithium Battery
Cheap Chinese Coilover (lol, spring rubbing on passenger side, shouldn't have cheaped out)
Rear Diff Brace
Lower Control Arms

Other:
Hood Struts

Coming Soon:
Ap Racing Brakes
Perrin Oil Cooler

Overall, I think I lost about 50-60 pounds with the battery, and the titanium exhaust but probably added a chunk of it back with the supercharger. The Volk Racing Wheels are lighter but tires are bigger and therefore weights cancels out with the stock combo I believe.

Next things I want to do is some nice stickers all over the place to complete the look but I am not sure exactly what I should put and where. Inputs would be greatly appreciated.

I'm diggin' it!
I personally would gloss wrap the top as black so the vortex doesn't look too out of place, but nice overall!

Here are some stickers I have now, most of them are 7.5" wide.

Also looking for suggestions on Coilovers and other ways to reduce weight. Thanks.

Thanks, I didn't think about that, I think it will go well with the wing as well.

Can not find this wing anywhere, where did you get this from?

Where did you get the carbon fiber interior trims? Are they 3M tape or actual replacements?

I bought it from these guys:

They are a racing team based in Korea, they make it in their shop.

They are just covers, but they fit really nicely as they are very thin and made of carbon fiber so that's all I need.
