Vivid Racing Post SEMA photoshoot

[vividracing]

Its been almost 3 weeks since the 2012 SEMA show in Las Vegas started and both of our Project Cars are home safe. The BMW M5 F10 is ready for a little photoshoot but in the mean time we snapped these super high quality photos of our Project Scion FR-S for you to enjoy. The brand new FR-S features some of these best products and has the performance to back it up too. The outside has been totally re-done thanks to a complete INGs aero kit. Their front bumper, side skirts, rear spats give it a very aggressive look while their carbon fiber GT wing makes the RWD coupe look mean as hell! The front features Seibon‘s new carbon fiber hood and the rear a carbon fiber trunk. With the bumper replacement and the carbon parts, we already saved about 40lbs over stock. Other accents on the exterior come from Agency Power in terms of the carbon mirror covers and carbon fender inserts. We have also added the billet aluminum shorty antenna to ditch that RC car look.

Some upgrades on this car that others could not compete with were our upgrade Brembo GT brakes. The front 6piston caliper glowing in red featured 355mm 2 piece rotors to give this car some serious stopping power. The new hot coupe really gets up and goes thanks to Agency Power performance mods. The headers, overpipe, and catback have all been updated. The dual 4.5 inch titanium exhaust tips look stellar coming out the rear end. The engine bay features the short ram Agency Power intake kit and a lightweight aluminum crank pulley. Lowered with KW V3 Coilovers, the ride of this car is beautiful while being able to handle the tests of high speed cornering. Agency Power equipped the rear end with a larger sway bar, full CNC machined adjustable control arms, and sway bar links.

For the SEMA project, Vivid Racing showed off 2 sets of Niche Wheels for the car. Both in 19 inch fitment, the driver side features a tinted brushed and gold multi-spoke with polished lip. The passenger side has a stunning matte black thick 5 spoke design with a dark smoke brushed lip. The 19×8.5 and 19×10 are wrapped with Toyo Tires 235/35/19 and a 265/35/19. Inside the car is no different. Status Racing Ring GT-X carbon fiber bucket seats in black ultrasuede with red stitching help trim out the inside. Status Racing 5 point red FIA approved harnesses then keep the driver secured with the help of the Agency Power bolt in harness bar. With a small touch by adding a Agency Power billet shift knob, the car is complete!

can you get a close up of that hood vent?
I cant imagine how throaty that intake must sound!
the engine bay of the shop car needs a blue bolt kit, would dress it up nice.

Looks good! Hope to see them out in town at some point.

I'd love to see this car with the GT86 version headlamps (or even paint the stockers) and red overlayed tails. The chrome sticks out too much with all the carbon accents. Also, GT wing requires more than 200hp.. car is begging for FI.

Good start but I wouldn't call this car complete. Well, maybe if the sole purpose was to show off a couple parts at SEMA and then be done with it, then it is.

Im gonna need to see that ings+1 kit in person, daaaaaaaaaamn

Jesus, that intake is so awesome and terrible at the same time, I love it, haha.

Not a huge fan of the wheels, but great job on everything else.

well "complete" is always up for interpretation, I was a huge fan of the gold pair of wheels when we first got them on the car and now the simple dark pair seems to be a pretty good fit too. I'm sure there will be more added soon

Here's a close up of the functional vented hood

What seats are those??

[CharlieChaos]

The more pictures I see of that hood the more I like it

[JoeBoxer]

How close is that vent to the air filter?
