That said though--I wouldn't be surprised one bit if they shot the ads with HID-equipped vehicles. Car advertising and promo shots rarely show stock vehicles.
Like i said , some amber bulbs are have a strong yellow tone so it can make 3200k halogens look more like 4200k. But yea. Often commercial cars are lowered , have larger wheels and the windows are tinted all around

Not the first picture of the bespoke, but one of the best photos. I want to see one with the unit on...It's funny, we know nothing about bespoke unit.

anyone else notice the trim piece that seems to have come un-done with the e-brake?

Looks like it was because the e-brake boot is wrapped around that whole piece of trim, Ken Gushi must have man-handled that thing. Weird design. Never noticed that...

There's a point where sunken in becomes ugly and unfortunately that point has been reached on the FR-S. A mere 15mm makes a world of difference!
Something about that pic made the Genesis Coupe grow on me... Or me grow on the Genesis Coupe.
