I install them today and after 2 minutes trying to push them in without cutting the plastic I gave up. I shred a litle bit plastic off from the housing and they were super easy to instal. Wiring took me 10 minutes and was easy, all zip tie!

Now i'm waiting for more parts from JPM Coachwork and other stuff from Diode Dynamics.

So here some pics from the install. The kit is from Diode Dynamics.

Yeah, even down here we are getting 6-10 inches. It's horrible, can't even get out of the house.

Accessories

Here's a few small mod's I've done to my FRS:

I've also added the red ring kit to the door speakers, the red GT86 inside handle grips to the door, the GT86 red/black door sills, a rear diffuser, carbon fiber rear aprons, a front license plate relocation kit, a Grimmspeed Master Cylinder brace kit, Agency Power Red shift knob, SPT oil cap and battery tie down, and a bunch of other stuff. I haven't had time to take pictures of each individual modification though

Wow bro. The whole car looks great. The bronze wheels go very nice with the deep black paint.

Looks great man. I was thinking of getting the stoptech rotors and just painting the stock calipers. For under $500 that would be a sweet brake setup and it would look really nice as well. Beats paying $2K+ for Wilwoods.

I've pondered the same thing and I was looking at the driveshaft made by ZEROLIFT. Here's what I've concluded:

Carbon Driveshaft

COSTS $945
WEIGHS 12.2 LBS
GOOD UP TO 800 HP

Aluminum Driveshaft

COSTS $425
WEIGHS 12.5 LBS
GOOD UP TO 800 HP

VERDICT - Save yourself $520 and get the Aluminum Driveshaft, unless 3/10ths of a pound are worth that to you.
