Poor Man's BRZ Headlights!

This is my take on FR-S headlight blackout. The poor man's BRZ headlight...just without cool DRLs I taped them to mimic the lines of the BRZ headlight, using some of the natural curves of the FR-S light.

Before (Yuck!)


Tedious taping



After!





I'm pretty happy with the results. Such an improvement over the all chrome look and I'm not crazy about the 100% blackout, this is my happy in between.

That’s looks great! I might pick up a set but instead of chrome, bronze or gold.
