Tell me what you think on what I did on my FRS. (Please don't be so mean. Hah)

As a gift for my self during the holidays, I did some changes in my car. Changed the Emblem to blackened toyota, put a carbon fiber wrap, added a shark fin, tinted my tail lights, blackened my side marker and reverse lights, painted the rims and calipers, and major change is changed the exhaust system. Tell me what you think.

I wouldn't have painted the tow hook cap or the gas cap, but the rest looks good!

I accidentally scratched it while putting on the vinyl so I decided to keep it for now while looking for a tow hook as replacement. Tho I'm not sure if I should do it because it might just get stolen.

It's just a vinyl wrap so I might as well take it off. Lol.

I dont want to be mean, so Id say that the paint on tow hook cover make the car looks like:



Even though..... I would remove both the paint on tow hook and gas cap if I were you.

I have firestorm also. I feel like it is really hard not to be rice. Honestly, working in a public accounting firm I fee like it is hard to be taken seriously with this car and external mods...especially w/black rims (although I like them). Anybody try the enkei bronze?

Not sure why you painted your backups. You have barely any illumination from them stock. They're there for a reason. I'd have put LED's in them and called it a day. Gotta agree with everyone else. Lose the black caps. Other than that, it's fine.
