yessir! The Rocket Bunny bodykit is probably the most demanded bodykit amongst the FR-S owners (and probably the most popular at SEMA this year)

I'm sure this car will be around a while longer than just SEMA.

the brakes should be in the project mu color blue! It would match with the exterior well instead of the dark grey they are now.

Mackin Industries is a wheel distributor, and SEMA is the platform to showcase all styles/colors/possibilities. The wheels may not be for everyone, but they will definitely be a showstopper.

the project mu teal is a standard color for the non-monoblock calipers. the monoblock race calipers come in this finish

I am hoping that the wheels on the car are not what the car will be displayed with.
