How to lift your FRS/BRZ properly

We thought this would be important to know as now a days many people with little to no knowledge  on car safety attempt to work on their own car whether it is to save money or gain experience and lack general knowledge of safety. We have been asked how do you jack up a FRS/BRZ that is why we feel this important to share this information. Safety is very important anytime you go under a car. We are only sharing this information and are not responsible for any damages you may do if you perform the work without a professional.
