Christmas is just a week away, and for many of us, we are too busy with work and life in general, and we don’t start our Christmas shopping until a few days beforehand. That being said, online orders are going to start getting heavier the closer it gets to Christmas, that means fulfillment operations are going to be at peak boost. The Christmas season in general, is one of the fastest seasons that fly by us as the impending cold doom of January and the new year awaits us. Traffic is a little heavier, Christmas songs are on every other radio station, and many of us are putting in the extra hours just to make sure we can do the best we can this Christmas for our friends, family, and loved ones. Before we know it, Christmas is in a few days, and we need to start knocking out items. And we understand that the holidays can be a stressful time of year, and because purchasing car mods is far beyond cheap, we’re going to focus on some of the more affordable items that the car person in your life will appreciate.

Please note that there are some items that are model-specific. So, if you are shopping for someone, make sure that you know exactly what year their car is and what make and model it is whether it be a Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, or A90 Toyota Supra. The first few items are universal, but as you go further down, they will be model-specific and you can enter that info at the top of the screen, and many product pages will show what confirmed models will work with that part.

 

 

HOODIES

These are warm during these colder times, and comfortable when lounging around the house. Many examples are from IAG Performance which is one of the most well-established organizations that makes engines for the fastest Subarus out there.

 

 

AIR FRESHENERS

We mention these often because they are the most affordable, but we carry the exclusive Eikosha brand fresheners that provide a very unique JDM citrous scent unlike anything you can get at your local auto parts stores. Certainly, a better option than hanging a tree from your rear-view-mirror as well.

 

 

DETAIL SPRAYS, WAXES, AND POLISHES

When you need to maintain a shine between washes, or when you need to get that spring detail done and polish off winter’s elements, this is a great way to do it. Chemical Guys makes some of the best products in the industry that are affordable when compared to ‘pro’ products exclusively used by detailers, yet they still offer powerful results at a better cost.

 

 

ALTERNATOR COVERS

These are cool because they add a little more color and personality to your engine bay by replacing the OEM bland-looking plastic piece. These also protect your alternator belt from any road pebbles that might make it into the engine bay, while also having a place to set your tools while performing maintenance.

 

 

SHIFT KNOBS

Always a fun little upgrade that makes your driving experience a little more enjoyable, while adding a better touch to your interior. We have options on options in many different shapes, sizes, and materials. If you’re buying one of these for someone, get some hints to try to narrow down your selection.

 

 

REVERSE LOCKOUT LEVERS

A great accessory to go with that upgraded shift knob because many of these are made using strong aluminum materials and will come in a variety of anodized finishes. Just like a shift knob, these are very simple to install and will make the car enthusiast in your life feel a little warmer these holidays.

 

 

STAINLESS STEEL BRAKE LINES

These are great for those who track their BRZ, FR-S, or 86 as they are affordable, and because they are stainless steel they won’t expand under heat or pressure. The next time you need to change your BRAKE PADS, these can easily be switched out. Just make sure you are using a proper BRAKE FLUID when bleeding your brakes so that you have fresh fluid running through your lines and calipers.

 

 

These are great Christmas gift ideas for those who are doing some last-minute shopping, and most of these items will hopefully not break the bank. For many enthusiasts, if they get something for themselves during the holidays, it will be car related. So, getting something from FTSpeed they will be super grateful. We want to wish you all a happy holiday this year we know how wild of a year it’s been with the mysterious things in the sky, the elections, the weather, the economy. We hope you can tune all of that noise out for a little bit during the holidays. We hope you can take some PTO time and enjoy what you love doing the most.
