Gregory Gawarans FR-S
 

So after much waiting, I finally got the call today that my vehicle had come in!

For my height (6'4") and weight (pretty heavy but im working on it!) I fit pretty good fit with a helmet as well, just need to adjust the seat a tad bit when I am wearing the helmet. My first 80 miles... I love it! It definitely wouldn't hurt to have a tad bit more power but I am definitely not complaining. Nothing a turbo / supercharger could fix in the future.

Here are the pics!

Wow, pics 4 and 5 are nice. I never liked the FR-S more than the BRZ until I saw these! Congrats on your car Gregory. Man Im loving that color! Great choice!

These pics have definitely put GBS/Ultramarine back in my top 3 colors!

Looks amazing!!! Congrats!!!

Thanks guys for the kind words, if you want more pics in different angles let me know, the blue really does shine through in the day light, its an awesome color. I originally wanted whiteout, but.... yeah haha. The only reason I miss the color now is because the TRD kits come pre painted in whiteout.

Getting this ready for Tuesday when Scott (Scottwax) comes to opti-coat the car.

Pictures Before:
I'll take some today or tomorrow before he arrives for before and after pictures... EDIT: I WASN'T ABLE TO GET BEFORE PICTURES... I KINDA FORGOT HAHA.

After:
Here are the after pictures. He definitely did a great job on applying the opti-coat, however there are two spots (that I have noticed (one underneath the driver side tail light (looks like a drop of water or something that won't wipe off)) and then on right beside the passenger headlight, its hard to see on the camera but in person it is very easy to spot, again it won't wipe off. HAZMA7 or any of the detailers could you guys give me some advice on how to get it off? I tried to ask scott about them but he said "he wasn't sure what it was, and I don't want to press to hard and mar the fresh coat".

Anyways here are the pictures guys,

Some notes. I was under the impression that he was in a rush, and perhaps the job took longer then he thought. He did charge me at a very good price, other then the 2 (so far) flaws I have seen the car looks good. However like Hazma7 and everyone else they taped up the plastic.... Scott however did not and it has "stained" the plastic pieces. Is there a compound or substance I can use to clean up the plastic pieces up top?

car looks awesome!!! congrats and welcome!!!:happy0180:

My favorite color for the FR-S!! Looks amazing!!! Have fun! Be safe. :thumbup::burnrubber:

Post opti pictures added

damn you. Asian and you are tall. Must be a Texas thing.

lol, im a california guy, moved to texas in 2000? haha ive been tall for al ong time. I should take pictures of the celicas... 75 and 77 but, they need some love before I show em off. You can kinda see it reflecting from the FRS.

haha sorry forgot to mention that your FRS is lookin sharp

Nice colour choice too. Only the best choose that :D

I believe the spots you're seeing are just areas where too much opticoat was applied. Those spots can be polished down, but you'd have to be careful not to remove the base layer of opticoat either.

Nice looking car! Good color choice, too. :thumbsup:

Congrats! With your body structure, how do you like the seats? I drove one on Sun and me being 6'2 but a medium frame, the seats fit me snug.
