My '15 Halo Build
Well, where to start?
At the ripe, young age of 18 I first saw the 86 come into the world. Since then, I eagerly awaited it to be released. When it came out, I just couldn't afford it due to school and only working part time. Fast forward to 9 Dec 2014 when I picked up my new FR-S. In the past 2 and a half weeks, I've put about 1500km on it and have been steadily modifying it. This is my first car that I've put any actual mods on. And have been doing everything myself, in the comfort of my garage. Lucky it's been a very mild winter so far up in the great white north. As for a parts list, here's what I have so far: Interior: Weathertech floor mats LED dome light Black interior pieces Exterior: Tow hook plate holder Switchback LED front turn signal bulbs Window Visors LED plate lights and Reverse lights Clear side markers Engine: OFT (stg 1 91oct rom) Nameless Axle Back (5" mufflers, blue/gold tips) Suspension and Wheels: DSG Performance Special Edition Fortune Auto 500 Coilovers Powered By Max lower control arms XXR 527 17x8.25 +25 Please excuse my pictures, just taking them on my phone for right now, until I can get a proper shoot done in the spring with everything finished up. Now onto the good stuff: https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7580/...c93db425_b.jpgIMG_20141209_152559 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7518/...19f840bd_b.jpgIMG_20141213_120004 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7561/...fe7f0235_b.jpgIMG_20141218_125424 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8565/...0c7ab207_b.jpgIMG_20141218_125359 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7582/...47112da6_b.jpgIMG_20141224_114229 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7513/...9e31d846_b.jpgIMG_20141224_152013 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8573/...06f7b83d_b.jpgIMG_20141224_114736 by colekmiecik, on Flickr Some new pictures from today with the summer wheels on, VERY happy with how they turned out although the poke in the front is a bit much for me. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7633/...b4e64b39_h.jpgIMG_0310 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8731/...98a11d78_h.jpgIMG_20150313_140044 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8679/...9f4dfd1a_h.jpgIMG_20150313_143528 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7654/...c8f12793_h.jpgIMG_0311 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8598/...298f8255_h.jpgIMG_20150313_142644 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7618/...166d57d5_h.jpgIMG_20150313_143510 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://c4.staticflickr.com/8/7721/1...ef4b382a_o.jpgIMG_0737 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8813/1...b72edc8b_o.jpgIMG_0722 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8890/1...d4535c9a_o.jpgIMG_0725 by colekmiecik, on Flickr |

Got the tires mounted. Needless to say, being 2500 km away from the car, and it being winter really, really sucks.
I'd like to paint the "Bridgestone" and "Potenza" labels. What's the best way to go about that? https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8678/...bf267e8c_b.jpgIMG_20150108_151203 by colekmiecik, on Flickr |

Update:
Car is currently in the shop getting the coilovers and LCA's installed. Big thanks to @jamies31 for the few pictures of it before they start tearing it apart. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7412/...5044577b_b.jpg20150203_172434 by colekmiecik, on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8606/...ef9c7766_b.jpg20150203_172342 by colekmiecik, on Flickr |

And, here's the "finished" product. Lowered about 1.5" all around. Will be going lower once spring comes around.

Made some more progress with this, installed some of the black interior bits. Fairly happy with how it came out, although the interior does seem a bit more "bland". Interior is dirty, don't care because winter.
