You and me both!
Bunch of goodies got here today. Too bad I'm swamped with work for the next 8 days straight. lol. Thanks @Racecomp Engineering for the awesome coils and @FT-86 SpeedFactory for the fast shipping! Will post my feedback on the suspension once installed. I will try to tackle the debadging and putting on the toyota emblems sometime within the next few days. |

Finally got around to debadging the car and installing Toyota emblems. Pretty self explanatory. Hot, sunny day down here in SFL so didn't even need to break out a heat gun or wifey's blow dryer. Did have to run to Walgreens to pick up some goo gone since all I had in the garage was goof off though (don't want to use that lol). @FT-86 SpeedFactory has this video on their website that is pretty much the way I did mine. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=s4Q0C6j3gxQ"]Toyota Emblems for the Scion FR-S - JDM - YouTube[/ame] Getting the excess adhesive left behind took most of the work. The rear trunk scion emblem came off with almost no adhesive left to remove but the "FR-S" and front scion emblem adhesive were a bit more stubborn. Used some Adam's revive polish and Adam's buttery wax on those areas before the new badges went on. I think the front end looks a bit "meaner" with the Toyota badge. I'm happy with them. Hope to get my suspension goodies installed soon. Working like crazy lately and haven't had much time. Wheel order will be placed soon as well - once I make up my mind on fitment and whether or not I want to wait for my wheels. |

Yeah, I might as well.
I spoke to Andres, told him to text me the address of his shop and he never got back to me. I think I'm just going to end up installing them myself. lol. Going to have to invest in some tools. Trying to find someone to do it at a reasonable price seems unlikely at this point. I will text you when my wife gets home. Thanks David. |

Got out of work last Saturday night at 3 am. Washed the car, went to bed at ~5 and was up at 7 for the @Circuit Motorsports 86 mega meet that took place last Sunday in Orlando.
Rode up with a bunch of fellow 86 owners from South Florida. Good times. The show itself was pretty sweet. Ended up winning a Deatsch Werks fuel pump and a Seibon backpack in the raffle. Didn't take many pictures. This Hot Lava ended up being one of my favorites at the meet. Those wheels. <3 Did manage to get one pic snapped of my car (that I've seen thus far) in it's mostly stock form though. Ended up staying the night in Orlando (and apparently missing a really fun drive home lol) with the wifey. Hung out with some old R32 buddies of mine the next day before making the drive home. Next on the agenda is wheels. I've been going back between a few wheel choices over the past few days. I originally had a wheel in mind that I swore I was set on but have since changed my mind. Should end up purchasing said wheels within the next few days. I'm stoked. |

Custom CCWs? If you like them on the Rev Works car, then you should do it.
