Hood stripe

Has any one seen an FRS with a stripe on the hood, A centered stripe that follows the lines coming off the badge on the front. I am thinking about doing this but would like to see what it looks like before I try.

Pssssssst! If you do, run it down the driver's side from the trunk lid to the front just past the hood emblem! True "end to end' stripes tend to look dated and tacky! In the end it's what YOU like~

Meguiar's FR-S is the closest you'll get.

I hate Toyota's hood designs. The tapering curves calling attention to the bulge mounted emblem always reminds me of this:

Lux-Motion has a good example, just ignore the sides colored in.

You should really consider getting that rendered and mass produce it! I'm sure there are tons of members that would want that. +1 for unique!

I would want that for sure when i pick up my frs
