Great Shark Fin pre painted factory color great price

Received my Shark Fin from Visual Garage about 10 days ago and love it. [/URL]http://visualgarage.com/ They don't have FRS/BRZ on their drop down order form but it does work. Just send an email asking and they will confirm for you. Not too tall like some, pre painted to factory color and reasonably priced $69 not including shipping and handling. I would recommend taking a string from the rear emblem to the windshield rear view mirror mount or, better yet, the marker in the middle of the dash to determine perfect front back alignment and marking with removable painters tape.

Feel free to come at me with questions or ask Visual Garage as I found them to be ultra responsive.

GREAT NEWS! I emailed Visual Garage about the upcoming meet and greet in N. Cal and he is giving us a discount off his already low pricing of $69 ($81 with S&H) use discount code VGMJ127 for $5 off so your price is $76 that includes S&H. This is available to anyone on the forum just email sales@visualgarage.com and they will send you an invoice that applies the discount. They aren't sure how long they can afford to offer the discount but I'll update this post when they opt to end the code.

Here are some photos:

the link you've posted is to the Scion YouTube video? I tried searching 'visual garage' and was brought to their site, but couldn't find the FR-S ones.

Sorry was a real pain to post. I fixed the link. Re FRS / BRZ not being listed on Visual Garage site you're correct I sent then an inquiry through their website and they confirmed the unit would fit.

Thanks for the installed pics.

I still want to see someone put the beat sonic, visual garage, and tom's sharkfin all together at once to do a proper comparison.

Love the red accent on the wheels, did mine a few weeks ago. Really makes the car POP! Great job.

I really like this one. The otheres I have seen beside Modelista didn't seem right to me. But I'm kinda wishing I had a red one after seeing this pic and the new TRD catelog. Everything looks better on it it seems.

They are bigger than I would like...but the alternative is the rc car antenna
