My hot take is that the FR-S was already a good looking car and did not need this...

However, it does show what would be possible if Lexus cleaned up the IS's headlight design.

Interesting idea. Certainly gives this FRS a very unique look from all the others out there. I like their thinking.

Not sure about the bumper. it's alright i guess. too much work

FRS looks great stock. not sure why these young red bull guys with backwards hats and terrible ill-fitting clothing feel the need to neon green and stance and pop the crap out of everything. if i saw that and a stock one right next to it, i'd be drooling at the stock one and wondering how the owner showed such restraint. i'd also much rather *buy* the stock one if both were for sale... lol

if i see these cars in real life, i make sure to make extra effort not to look, not to give them any attention. especially when they cruise around parking lots in 1st gear with their ebay exhaust popping and spitting, begging for attention.
