Just googled Tamon FRS Fender Ducts and it led me to a thread on this forum with pics. It's pretty much exactly what I'm thinking of.

[15 minutes later] I just called Evasive Motorsports and they said they'd be available sometime in the later year, unpainted, and they're willing to take deposits for pre-orders. Looks like I'm going to have to talk to the wife about an early christmas present.

Agreed, that is screwball pricing.

wait a year and every prices will get lower, you can also plug the holes on your OEM ones and get them painted back, but it won't look the same

someone should work with a local body shop to take a mold of the factory piece, and then in fiberglass or carbon, offer just a plain, "blank" piece. Then everyone could buy that and customize it however they want ... emblem, no emblem, faux vent, functional vent, no vent.

why make a mold of the factory one if you already have one on the car, just fill the holes and them repainted but the Tamon one will still look better...

on the FR-S it's not a flat piece. even if you remove the '86 piston' emblem there is a raised surface surrounding the emblem. so it would take a fair amount of body work to modify it.
