The New Scion FR-S | Bavaria BC5 Concave


We attend a lot of car meets and events and noticed lately that the current Belle of the Ball is the Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ. We've had the great pleasure to sit down and chat with our buddy Thomas with his 2013 Scion FR-S named Chimera (A Greek Mythical Creature). Thomas first purchased the car back in July 2012, and his passion for tuning has created a project that is constantly evolving.
We wanted to know why he picked the FR-S chassis as the base for his tuning project. His reply was "I picked the FR-S due to the fact that it was one of the best platforms to come together from 2 different car builders. Plus it's such a great car to drive."
This FR-S has a projected goal to be successful in 3 areas: Appearance, Performance, and Sound. The car isn't close to completion yet, but Thomas has already created a buzz for himself at events and features! Keeping it simple, yet clean, is what some guys want to achieve when modifying cars.
The FR-S is equipped with 20x10 Bavaria BC-5 Concave Wheels wrapped in Toyo Proxes 1 tires. Lowering the car with Eibach springs not only gave it a better stance, but also increased handling performance without sacrificing comfort. Thomas added some flare by getting parts of the car wrapped by Wrapito, along with a Carbon Fiber Hood and Carbon Deck Lid from Seibon. The Boxer rumble is now even more noticeable with a Borla Exhaust System. Thomas' project goal of tuning Appearance, Performance, and Sound is well on its way.

More power and more enhancements to audio is what's in store for this FR-S along with, well... we'd hate to spoil the surprise After looking over some renderings of what is in store for Project Chimera, we know the next time we feature this car,it will be very aggressive and very different from the rest of the pack.

Be sure to keep an eye out for this FR-S at your local events and online features!
