New owner, looking for part requests

Hello everyone!

I just bought a 2014 FR-S over the weekend for my daily. I came over from the S2000 world, which is now my dedicated track car.

I make custom parts for the S2000 and want to expand to the FR-S/BRZ. Are there any custom parts that you guys have always wanted but nobody else really makes?

My site is www.baero.tech if you want to see the kind of stuff I usually work on. I am going to be making front/rear brake ducts for our cars fairly soon since I plan to use this is a part-time track car as well.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

good luck, though it might be hard to find something that hasn't already been done in japan...the twins have spawned a lot of weird aftermarket stuff

Welcome to ……. The Forum ……..

Yes, a very large, ultra wide angle, backup camera and screen, with extra loud distance alert horn and auto braking feature.

That's all.


Seriously, good luck with your venture.

Yeah, brake ducts would make the 86 legendary.

I want everything speed racer's car had. The saw blades and the jumpy things are a deal breaker.

I want a front lower bumper garnish, a proper arm rest, under body panels without paying an arm and a leg or having to order from Japan.

Rear diffuser and under body panels are a good one. I'm actually working on a custom splitter and diffuser for a S2000 customer.

Center console/cupholder sounds cool too. I want to replace my cup holders for something that fits my items perfectly. Since it just slides in and out that would be easy to do.

Thanks for the tips guys.

We really need cheaper radio delete options or good single DIN conversions for gauge mounting. Working on this myself and it's a real pain

Full digital gauge cluster, that fits perfect to OEM shape, or HUD system that integrates into the cluster cover (HUD must project onto window, not have it's own small silly glass). I'll be waiting for either of these for next week, thnx.

OR Full digital single/dual/multi gauge unit that can be seamlessly integrated into existing trim.

While you're at it, get me some new RAM for my car as well.
