I have just one from farther away. I can try taking some more, but I'll need to go out somewhere to shoot it: 50mm prime lense on a 4:3 sensor SLR means I have to be way far away to get a whole car in frame. I'll be going to Cars and Coffee this coming weekend so should be able to get some then with the car looking nice.

On the way home after Coffee & Cars today I stopped off somewhere and took some pictures:

Thank you!! Looks real nice. Been waiting for something to switch out from the original fender vents.

honestly think the original vents look a bit tacky.

I hear you, I never liked the "GT86" fender vents of the FR-S... In person the TRD aerodynamic fender vents look even better than in the pictures. By themselves off the car they look to be a pretty large piece; but once installed they aren't that noticeable from afar at all and flow really well with the fender lines. Also they don't extend out from the side of the vehicle at all...the doors are further out than these vents...

I have some racing mirrors ordered which should be coming in Monday. Will need to fab up the mounting plates and will paint the housing and mounting plates the same as the TRD fender vents. Not sure how long it will take, but I will be taking my time and doing it right. The mirrors will complete the look and improve it even more I think. These are the ones I'll be custom installing:
