Thanks! I still need to take some good pictures in the sun. The glossy gunmetal finish on the wheels is darker than my Enkeis, but I am loving the subtle aggression and contrast they give.

I'm considering getting a set of spoke decals to really make them pop.

I think red decals would best match the red tail lights.

Bro the clean look no decals is the way id leave them but that's just me .

sharkfin antenna? that would look so good on this car...would flow well with the lines of the spoiler diffuser et al

Don't do it, but that is coming from a guy with Volk TE37SLs and red decals. I just feel it makes the wheels try to be something they are not.

Would prefer to keep my low-profile shorty antenna and get either the garnish that fills the aero gap between the rear window and the trunk lid (can't remember what it's called, but you just put one on your FR-S), or get the APR front canards.

TRD Rear window garnish and grrrr it's not here yet:-/. The shorty is cool tho I almost went that route myself.

What about a front splitter?

I just installed a STi style front lip a couple weeks ago and I'm happy with it, especially knowing I won't mind at all when it inevitably scrapes something. I am extremely careful but it still happens even before I installed the lip. The APR splitter is over 3 times the cost of my STi lip... I'd rather spend that extra money on other things... like a flex fuel kit

I did it in my garage myself with some random boxes to hold it up and tape it down to fit it. Used a creeper to make it easier.

I just bought the same lip. Did you have to remove the front under trays like in this install video (different lip), or is it as simple as positioning the lip, drilling the holes and screwing all the screws in? Did you reuse any of the OEM clips?

It's that simple

Nope only used the supplied mounting screws. Measure twice, drill once.

Thanks, your post made me pull the trigger. Looks great!

My Moto-East Flex Fuel kit arrived!



It includes everything needed for a plug and play flex-fuel setup to allow precise on-the-fly tuning adjustments based on actual ethanol content for maximum safety and power with no map switching or tank draining hassles.

I'm very happy with the quality of the kit. The fact that it comes pre-assembled and pressure tested gives me extra security. Thanks @moto-mike ! Hoping to install it this weekend.

Installed my Flex Fuel kit earlier this evening. Got everything installed, up and running in a few hours, taking my time. Followed the instructions exactly and everything came together perfectly. Removing the connectors on the ECU to get the harness connected was a pain. Running the wires was easy, took my time connecting the crimps together. I had to really lay into the crimping tool to get it to bite the wires and secure them. A lighter worked fine to melt the heatshrinks on the crimps.

I got everything in the cabin zip tied out of sight and away from hazards and was able to mount the sensor gauge and tuck the wire away neatly into the dash panel.

The fuel lines came together quite easily. The quick disconnect tool worked well and the FF assembly installed securely and made all my apprehensions go away. Overall the instructions were extremely thorough and detailed and that made me much more comfortable with the kit.

It all came together cleanly and without any issues. I flashed the Flex Fuel tune provided and started the car. Checked and rechecked for leaks and headed to the E85 pump. Filled up with Ethanol and the sensor reacted after a couple minutes and I proceeded to make a few logs for Moto-East to review. The power was all there and it's running great so far.

Very happy with this kit and the Flex Fuel tune!
