Owner can do whatever they want to their car... But you probably should have got something else this type of modding was your goal.

I actually like the overall style you've got going... but is that really stick on caliper covers? If so ...

Nice attention to detail all around in your customization. The wheels give good clearance for snow driving but the looks are kind of in between... too oversized for my traditional taste but too small for a donk. As if the car can't decide what it wants to be. Maybe if you raised your suspension a bit that would give it a more definitive custom look (or maybe not, maybe I just want it to have the same wheels but smaller).

Nice individualism. Not digging the wheels or the blacked out tail-lights.

Although I wouldn't build my car like this, I think it looks nicely done.

The stripe, the wheels, the calipers, and the side skirts...

Why? And please don't say looks.

Someone on the same page as me. I applaud you.
OP, enjoy your car and do what you please. Let the haters hate.

OP: As long as you're happy with the way you modified your FR-S, that should be the only aspect which matters.

Every individual is different, I respect and appreciate that.

Individualism is one thing and it's your car/money to do what you like, but it's another thing to be a complete poser. Do the community a favor and take those Bremfaux caliper covers off.
