Great looking exhaust tips! Locally bought or ordered from somewhere? I'd like to know.

My apologies. I've already used the black cover for my second key. But here's a link to ebay auction where I got it. Seller ships worldwide I think.

Hi Froylavin,

I am new to this Forum and really liked your exhaust tips shape. I am lebanese living in Abu Dhabi and saw your car on the road in Lebanon around a month ago unless there was another one which I doubt. I felt so jealous I have to say because I booked mine in June here in Abu Dhabi and still waiting for the delivery Can you please tell me where did you buy the Exhaust tips from? is it spoiler centre and what is it called?

Thanks and enjoy the ride!

LOL, finally someone who noticed. Yes, in Dubai dust inside the engine bay is unavoidable. Rest assured this was taken care of.

Here is how the 2.4inch antenna looks like on the car. Zero problems with reception, everything workslike the original antenna.

Hi Hayolas!

There is only 2 on the road currently in Lebanon, if you saw the black one, then it was me. The silver one is owned by the son of the owner of the dealership (surprise surprise!). A friend of mine bought another black one but it hasn't arrived yet.

That's right, I got them from Spoiler Center, not a great place, but they were the only ones I could find.

Congrats on your upcoming GT86! Next time you see me on the road in Lebanon, make sure to pull up next to me and drop a window

Don't flash lights at me though or you'll have a tough time catching me :p

TRD spoiler installed.

Had the JDM exhaust tips installed few months after I got the DC sports. Why? The DC sports tips became so rusty! Looked awful.
So DC Sports tips for 86; not recommended for UAE weather.


Installed the TRD spoiler today.

Before Installation; at the car wash, yesterday.




After Installation
; parked in its usual spot.

1) Spray on paint for the stock wheels.
2) Gloss red paint for the calipers.

Here is the result.
