FR-S Hot Lava - Black Out in Progress
I have removed and blacked out the emblems with spray-on truck bed liner. I have used this before and it wears very well. I also removed the lug nuts and painted them with a custom paint mix. Windows are tinted 20%, I did it myself. I have a black out film kit coming for all the lights. I will post pics when I'm done. I also sprayed the inside of the wheel wells with spray-on bed liner as well to make them disappear. I applied the racing stripe myself... I'm a sucker for stripes.
Mods I'm planning are audio with subwoofer, supercharger, exhaust, tuner, and Tien suspension. I also plan on upgrading to better seats. I bought this car at Appleway Toyota in Spokane Washington from James "The Godfather" Brown, and I absolutely love it. My maiden voyage was from Spokane to my home in Billings Montana through some of the best mountain passes in the country. This car rocks in the twisties. Anyway, here's my contribution to the world of automotive art. |

I'm considering doing the same, except I want black to match the trim on the car. Also considering painting the lettering in the logo and the recessed portions of the 86 emblem body color. |

Decent job, I would've left the 86 alone tho.
Hating those lug nuts tho, a little cheesy. But overall looks good , I might go that route |

Looks good! Personally, I like the color-match lug nuts. I want to get blue ones for my car.

Blacked out/truck bed liner emblems look great!
I love the texturing ![]() I also think the orange lug nuts look fantastic - they really pop with the orange! Well done
