FRS/BRZ Spoilers Help

SOOOO i'm thinking of getting a spoiler for my FRS. I can't get a racing spoiler because my parents are not going to be ok with it. So I narrowed it down to either the FRS or BRZ spoiler.


I've asked a few friends and family members and it's pretty much even. So I was hoping you guys can help me out. I know that it would be weird to have a BRZ spoiler on the FRS but I really like it...



BRZ OR FRS SPOILER

i like the brz oem spoiler better than the frs one myself. Wouldn't be all that weird since the international Toyota 86's have that one as an option

agree with @86_FRS, both make the car look uglier, not better. If i can get rid of mine i would.

Just an opinion, I would spend the money on performance before I spend on the exterior.

However, my BRZ has the spoiler, and I loved it at first but now I would rather something that is BMW M3 style

I think you can five access dealer installed option. Much cleaner look, and looks incredible in person!

I personally love the look of the BRZ spoiler, and those who say don't like it are either tired of looking at it because they want something bigger, or they haven't seen it in person. But in Canada, I can't buy a Galaxy Blue BRZ spoiler and put it on a Ultramarine FR-S because we don't get that colour of BRZ's in Canada, so if you're in a situation where it's pretty much impossible to get a BRZ spoiler in the colour you want, go for the Scion OEM spoiler. They're not all that different.
Otherwise, go for the BRZ one. They're both amazing in person in their own way and if you like both of them now, you probably won't get tired of it like some of the others here.

Get a BRZ one and get a gurney flap for it! (look it up...it makes the spoiler actually look like a spoiler)

I don't really like either, but I would go for FR-S spoiler. They both look kind the same, but the two bumps from the BRZ spoiler are less accented.

And personally, though some will disagree, I think the BRZ one resembles this from the Grand Am just a little too much;
