Wash and vacuumed and ditched the dealer license plate frames for some simple chrome ones.

That's a great price! Lowest I could find was $999 toyotapartsoutlet.com. Where did you purchase yours?

very nice..

As I plan to install the Kosei k4r 17x7 and re-use the stock tires. The rims will save 24 lbs. When it comes time to replace the battery I will. I expect another 20 from this. This car is lightweight, yet feels firm and precise. Toyota and Subaru did a great job.

Still waiting for fog lights's bezel from Amayama to come. Hopefully, they will be here soon.

Excuse the dirty car, it rained a lot on the way!

Brought her home and cleaned every inch of her and detailed her too. First time giving a car a treatment like this by hand. I think it turned out pretty nice for my first time.

that being said... don't know if i would trust air ride on a performance car. then again, i don't understand the technical aspects of them so take my opinion on them with a grain of salt

as far as tires go im leaning towards 615k's, direzza z1/II's, or hankook rs3's
haha yeah man im still debating. i mean ive seen like two FRS with the bag system and they seem to love it. both are show cars. im sure youve heard of staycrushing. i believe he is rocking a bag system. he planning on hitting the track with it too. idk man i still have plenty of time to find out.

i love the lowered look and everything. slmammed not so much when your driving. but the chance to slam it when its parked and raise it to a certain hieght when your rolin out, just sounds good.

idk hahaha im still debating. i have a good time before i get the money for anything.

but you wheel set up sounds legit to me. i might reaserch it a little bit but it sounds legit.

i was thinking about doing a bunny kit. (not V2 bunny kit) i was looking for a staggered set up with some fat wheels and tires. omg of my boys is setting himself up on some 17x10.5/11.5

Sweet, nice job with the back up camera.

Did yours come with climate control?
