Graphics Kit
Do you think Scion (or anybody) will sell graphics kit for this car? The blue white and black drift car graphics are awesome.

Ew. Way too flashy. Never gona happen unless you get someone to custom it. I think a more feasible graphics release would be the Greddy FR-S @ laguna seca.. but even that seems unlikely

haha it would be pretty aggressive for a street car. A guy at my work has basically a street-legal race miata he drives to work on occasion. I think that is what I want to do to my FRS. I really dislike when people try to make their cars look like racecars, but if it is done right (all the improvements are functional and not for bling) then it can be pretty cool.

I think Subaru has a checkered flag graphics kit in their accessories catalog. So far, anything outside of that looks like it will be a custom job. Rice or not, it's really no one's concern but your own. Unless it's offensive or a safety hazard to others...but that's another story. |

There is an old hot rod saying that applies to the graphics issue:
"Chrome don't make it go" |

I hope they come out with a F&F RS edition with Vin diesels signature on the dash.

Just remember to get it in yellow instead of blue. Yellow is the fastest color.

I think nicely done vinly can add a lot of expression and personalization to a car which is why a lot of us mod cars anyway so do it if you like it. I on the other hand love to perfect and polish my paint to bring out a deep reflective shine and only paint can do that so I will not be on this bandwagon. If I were you I would put together some renders or wait for more race teams and then have at it!
