Both my girlfriend and I think that it is a little bit quieter. But to be honest I think it is too subjective.

I will do the doors later and then I think it will be helpful.

The exhaust sound might not be quieter but I think it can reduce the road/tire/wind noise.

Nope no fitment issues. The spoiler was spot on. It was getting the OEM spoiler off, and cleaning up the mess it left behind. I am putting a bunch of stuff together in my build journal and making a video on it. The only thing I could find for spoiler removal was for the BRZ and it was no where close to the same as the FRS.

YES THIS. Idk why they have to put like 5 bolts AND all of that double sided tape that's apparently practically impossible to take off of the car once the original spoiler is off..

Dude, the tape is insane...
Just look at how much they put on it! It is like there was an expectation that the more they used, the better chance they would have at wining the lottery. I could understand if no bolts, but there are 4 screws and 2 bolts in the damn thing too.

SERIOUSLY. Like, I remember taking the screws & bolts out, then just grabbing the ends of the spoiler & giving a tug up, but then it didn't move & I was just like okay wtf. haha

HAHAHAHA I did the same thing. The thing that kills me is the post i found on the BRZ, the guy was like, be careful when you take the screws out so it doesn't fall on your paint. After i realized how much tape there was i started to throw shit.
