Another successful install. With the TRD USA exhaust, the cutouts look damn near OEM+. I used no spacers, but did cross thread a rivet bolt, which had to be removed and replaced with standard hardware. A few cell phone pics. Thx @NotEric6 and @FT-86 SpeedFactory . Great product.

Damn, the diffuser actually makes the TRD exhaust work on this car. I've never really cared for the shape of those tips, but with the diffuser it looks great!

I made my own aluminum piece to fill the gap under the car in front of the diff left by the stock mid-pipe.

I'm getting quotes for this back this week! Not that the pricing should change but it's how the world goes round so hopefully soon!

I couldn't agree more! That looks like they're made for one another.

Go right ahead man. The design and fit are spot on. I'll be snapping a few more pics tomorrow and then again when I install the rest of my aero. Looking forward to that front splitter as well. Job well done man!

You could say we have a few irons in the fire . Haha. It is in the works, we haven't pushed hard for it because honestly the underbody of these cars isn't bad. It's pretty darn flat for a production car! Those large pieces of sheet metal will not be cheap but we are moving forward with it as time permits. We will make an underbody kit and then we will look into side skirts.

The order in which we design has meaning behind it as well; we believe that a flat body will benefit the car's performance more than side skirts (that are reasonable looking). We high suggest the use of the diff/suspension covers over both side skirts and/or flat underbody. Filling that large void in the underbody is very beneficial.

Update for the exhaust cutout cover.... Here is a photo of the prototype uncoated. They will be coated for production!!!

Working on it, I promise. I'm a fan of the more subtle design as well I think; however some of these cars look absolutely stunning with the aggressive current design.

Here's two photos I can't not share! Alan's smurf colored FR-S and his color scheme are just awesome!
