They do transfer over but imo not worth the ~$1000/headlight for the BRZ/FR-S swap. I'd rather wait for the FR-S units with LED DRL's, but even then that will be a bunch of $. I might hold off on getting my FR-S until they come out, depending on how they look I just hope they aren't too obnoxious. I would prefer to just do the TRS retrofit and be done with it. I hate how the BRZ essentially has two DRL's.

They look like just an HID kit, not the retrofit but it's hard to tell with that exposure since the lights are blown out. The Retrofit replaces the projector with a better quality one and to use a D2S/D2R bulb rather than a less expensive kit that uses the H11 etc bulb. ~$300 vs. ~$60

I assume you asking about the HIDs they are plug and play sorta, I got my kit of Amazon and they didn't slide in so my friend sanded the HID bulb a little bit to get them to fit. Don't always believe H11 is a H11

I like the BRZ as well, I guess that part of the $1.5k differences.

Ya the roof is whatever to be honest. I got a really good deal I couldn't pass up though soooo, it's all good
I thought about doing the mirrors also but, haven't decided on black vinyl or carbon wrap. ( including roof )
As far as the airaid intake, I'm In love with my car ---- that much more, it just sounds and feels like she can breathe a little easier.

I'd definitely stay with the gloss or matte black over CF/dinoc stuff, much cleaner. I think the mirrors would look cool, I've been tempted to do it on my car just for a bit.

Oh, yeah I would have done the fin too. But that might require paint since it's difficult to wrap.
