Exhaust tips from CT until I bother with exhaust. Debadge FRS, already have mudflaps.

Need plate cover, didn't want a dealer one or anything with writing.

Gonna get HID projector kit (300) and LED interior light kit. Might tackle the center console and change the clock/airbag/HVAC controls all to red.

How hard was installing the homelink mirror (mainly getting ignition power)?

Nice color and I'm thinking debadge the BRZ too.
Home link mirror is pretty easy for install if you have small hands, because the plug in the roof has short wire and my hands just a bit too big. I think they try to hide it.
If you order online, make sure order the adaptor as well, it is $10 only but you can't install your mirror without it. However if you order from dealership it comes with it.

The shape really is the same, but on the BRZ the inboard corner goes behind the bumper cover and not so on the FR-S. There are photos confirming that on here somewhere.

These parts listed though do not include bulbs, ballasts, potentially wiring harnesses if needed, etc. That was really my point. So, yes this is what you would order if you busted the clear lens on your BRZ and need to replace it, pulling the parts out of your existing headlight. You could install these in your FR-S but you would need all the other parts to make them functional.

Yep just pulled the trigger and ordered the homelink/adapter from the same site.

Also bought the FR-S Hid projector kit since it's 25% off till the end of the month. See this thread.

Wow, this is cool. I remember when I got my Sienna last year it only comes with one set.

Yeah.. both cars have some odd choices.

Do you want a trunk liner or mud flaps? You can't have both! lol.

Good point. But in my city, Calgary, I will choose mud flaps since we have ugly weather most of the time

Quick question - are the mud guards specific to the FRS?

I called my local subaru and toyota dealer and neither had a clue about the mud guards.

Part numbers anyone?

You mean photo like this?
