Snow White (Pic Heavy)
Since I don't post much on any forums now days, I figured I'd pop back in here again and show you guys what replaced "Vios." She was replaced with "Snow White," a 2014 Scion FR-S Monogram.
Day I got her after waiting over a month for my order: Was rather pissed off that it came to us with 12 miles (a little under since it gets driven 2 miles during the pre-delivery inspection process). First mod was take any usable LEDs from Vios and use them in Snow White, so dome light and rear license plate lights. First full detail after about a week of getting her, and rebadged with genuine Toyota GT86 emblems Got full 3M window tint (Color Stable in the rear three, and Crystalline front sides) Put in a K&N drop in filter (makes more power, unlike a full intake replacement that actually loses power) Installed a Berk Technology track pipe (muffler delete) Friend's FR-S was stolen and recovered, so I decided to help him out by buying his rear roof spoiler (only replica piece on Snow White).

Since the OEM reverse light are garbage, decided to install some 921 LEDs from The Retrofit Source.
OEM for comparison: Installed Tein Flex-Z coilovers, and limited edition (hyper silver) WedsSports TC105N with Gruppe-S center caps. 17x9, ET35, 245/40/17 tires. Installed genuine Toyota 86 clear side markers with VLEDs HVA 194 bulbs. OEM amber side markers and bulbs for comparison (yes barely looks on compared to the VLED 194 bulbs): Last edited by Kaotic Lazagna; 12-03-2017 at 10:28 PM. |

Other misc. mods:
Toyota backing to my smart key to get rid of the Scion name. *edit, picture no longer shows, and I can't find the pic anymore. Replaced the factory Osram HID bulbs with Osram CBI HID bulbs for slightly cooler Kelvin. *sorry, will have to click on my IG link* https://www.instagram.com/p/BHyA3hph439/ Stopped using OEM cabin filters, and replaced with Blitz hybrid cabin filter: https://www.instagram.com/p/BFhPlCtmy9O/ Open Flash Tablet stage 1 tune to better utilize California's crappy 91 octane gas, and to help reduce the infamous FA20 torque dip. https://www.instagram.com/p/ztjHVdmy-w/ Harbor Freight tow strap. I got high centered in our gravel storage lot at work. Had to get my manager to pull me out with his 4Runner. https://www.instagram.com/p/BE4XC1EGy9I/ Last edited by Kaotic Lazagna; 12-03-2017 at 10:31 PM. |

LOVE it!
BTW, is "snow white" a solid white paint or a sparkly white? |

Definitely not mad at you for not going the hellaflush route, I'll always love a clean track look! My next car will definitely at a similar height with some nice fitting wheels. Unless, I end up going with air ride, then I'll be going all out ;)

Also, another pic of when I got high centered (I removed the gravel and dirt that went over the rim/lip/barrel before I took the pic) https://www.instagram.com/p/BE4XPVFm...e_good_lazagna |
