Front looks like a snow plow. They should have kept it simpler. I have to say none of the FR-S aero so far impresses me.

Good place to set a beer can when working on the car.

it's too big and dominates the front fascia. looks really tacked on and out of place.

in response to the comment about it not matching. the whiteout is a pearl white which is 3 stages. unfortunately, over time the whiteout will fade a little creating a little bit of a yellower creamy tint. the kit was probably put on after the car has been out on the road and seen the sun for quite a few hours. the lip kit was probably matched to the front and rear of the bumper but the paint will look practically look brighter. give it some time and itll blend to the car.
i personally have this kit and it looks pretty sick! |
