The FR-S comes with a screw driver in the trunk. Philips and Flat-Head screwdriver. Funny enough, I used it to install the filter.

It's actually quite embarrassing to admit, but that makes it the first screwdriver I've ever owned... I always just borrowed my brother's tools since he's a mechanic and all.

My older brother got those, I got different stuff ... Like sports equipment. I feel like I got lucky because I've come to realize just how expensive tools can be. $26k MSRP for a screwdriver!

Yea not too worried about the noise, my exhaust is pretty loud now that its worn in 40,000 miles.. My commute is 105 miles at 80mph so its mostly wind noise. It's just such a significant improvement in grip and handling over those stock tires it is impressive.

I didn't worry about noise either but I noticed it once I started commuting to work. Anything over 50mph is loud as shit for me

To be fair, it was probably easier for her to reach the tires, though. I'm getting too old for that crap.

Got around to editing this aggressive low angle front shot this morning... It may be my second favorite shot of my recent mini shoot.

Beautiful build. But I wouldn't have touched the mirrors and front grille.

Washed it and scrubbed my rims! Then moved it into the garage and started polishing it and died halfway through from the heat. R.I.P.
