If you want to black out your headlights, you can. I mean, yes, technically you can't do that, but that's only because the dealership doesn't want a riced out car at the end of your lease term that they can't even sell to another customer, but something like blacking out the headlights won't be frowned upon, and the dealership might even be able to easily sell the car later on because a customer might prefer the blacked out headlights over another used FR-S that has the stock chrome headlights.
And if you think you might even end up just buying the car out at the end of the lease, then go crazy the mods. If you plan on returning it at the end of 3, or 4 years, then keep the mods fairly moderate, and ones that are mostly reversible. If you want to do bigger mods, and not have the dealership get mad at you, buy TRD stuff.
I asked my dealership about warranty on stock struts and shocks even if I buy Eibachs from them, and they said they wouldn't cover blown shocks or struts unless I bought TRD springs. So even though TRD things are expensive, they also come with a peace-of-mind that your car will be taken care of should anything go wrong.
