I disassembled my Scion FR-S headlight assembly and painted the inside reflectors with a dark metallic gray paint so it would better match the paint color of my car.
And YES, I KNOW that it is very silly to paint the high-beam reflector. I will be converting my projector to a bi-xenon system in the near future and I don't need the additional high beam anyway, so I have converted it to a fog light.
Scion FRS vs. Subaru BRZ Stance War
Two stanced, brand new cars go head to head in this epic video shoot. The fastest selling cars ever in history stand here head to head against each other in looks, performance and stance.
NOW notice how the owners of each car are playfully making fun of each others cars, when they know it is simply the same thing. At the end they drive away with the opposite cars! Fairly good joke so enjoy!

Scion FR-S Drift in Japan with Ken Gushi
This footage is from my personal Contour Camera. I had my camera loaded up in the Scion FR-S as I took a few laps around a forest track in Chiba, Japan. I was told not to trash the car so I didn't do anything crazy but here is some raw footage. It is fun to drift!

C-WEST TOYOTA 86用エアロパーツ(C-WEST TOYOTA 86 AERO PARTS)#FR−S #GT86
製品情報はこちら http://www.c-west.co.jp
TOYOTA86のエアロフォルムをサーキット視線になって徹底検証しました。カスタマイズの極限ともいえる多様化に対応するため「ノーマルバンパーのポテンシャルを引き出すハーフスポイラータイプ」と「デザイン自由度が高くサーキットスペックに特化したフルバンパータイプ」の2種類のデザインを用意。モデリング時には現役GTドライバーによるサーキットテストをおこない、車両特有の過渡特性やチューニングサスペンション&ハイグリップタイヤとのマッチングを考慮した上、更なる進化を遂げる可能性もあります。ストイックなまでに走りの質を追求したエアロパーツが、心地よい操作感と素早く反応するレスポンスを高め、目の前のコーナーを攻めたくなる衝動を駆り立てます。
The Toyota 86's aero form was developed for 4 months after the final prototype release for the ultimate track use kit.
Prototype units were immediately tested at the track by GT drivers and the kit may continue to evolve as improvements are made for high grip tires and tuned suspension.
The spartan aero kit improves driving response and will make the driver want to attack the corner.
Fr-s Update
Just a small update on the car is coming along. If you have any question post a comment or send me a message.
If you want any info on any parts send me a message and I can give you Gsmotorsports Info. Gsmotorsports IS NOT the same shop that has bad rep when you google search it. German, the owner has never had any workers work for him since he opened. It just him and his son working on the car.
If you think the car is "slow" just from looking at the stock numbers this isn't the car for you. Watch this video it will explain everything.

2013 Scion FR-S New Car Video Review
http://www.autobytel.com/scion/fr-s/2013/ The FR-S in the 2013 Scion FR-S stands for front engine, rear wheel drive sports car. This 2-door coupe is a very fun car to drive and is a joint venture between Toyota and Subaru. Back in 2007 the 2 manufacturers decided to build this car together so much of the engine technology, parts, and even the chassis is shared. Base price on the 2013 Scion FR-S is $24,200.
The 2013 Scion FR-S is powered by a 2.0 liter boxer engine which is a essentially a flat-4 cylinder motor developed by Subaru. Power is pretty good for a naturally aspirated 2.0 liter engine at 200 horsepower and 151 lb-ft. of torque. There are 2 different transmission choices: a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic. The automatic transmission is much more fuel efficient at 25 MPG in the city and 34 MPG on the highway.
The Scion FR-S was designed to be a great handling everyday affordable sports car and while this vehicle does not have a ton of power, it does have a great center of gravity and almost perfect weight distribution (for a front engine car) at 55% front and 45% rear. To illustrate just how serious the engineers are about the handling capabilities of the 2013 Scion FR-S, the car has a lower center of gravity than both a Nissan GTR and Porsche Boxster which are considered some of the best handling cars in the world.
The exterior of the Scion FR-S conveys a ton of fun. Scion calls this styling Neo-Functional Design and the car is all about being low, light, and beautiful. It is all about power-to-weight ratio in this car and features like an aluminum hood help keep the curb weight down to 2750 lbs. The 17-inch alloy wheels are not only very stong and lightweight but they also look good! The dual Exhaust system and rear diffuser really tie the whole look of the rear end together.
With the 2013 Scion FR-S you will be able to accessorize and customize this car in a number of different ways by choosing the paint color, adding optional wheels and a body kit, or upgrading the stereo. The Scion FR-S was designed from the ground up to be an affordable car that you could drive on the streets then take out on the track for a little fun.
