2017 Headlights and Bumper on '13-'16 BRZ Conversion - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

mushyho · 06-06-2016, 02:32 PM

I have yet to come across a thread about this. Has anyone done the 2017 BRZ front bumper + headlights to the 2013-2016 generation of the BRZ or plan to?

Thanks

They aren't out yet.

But they did use '16s with the '17 parts for demo models.

Yes both Toyota and Subaru have done the conversation.

Damn non-disclosure agreements.

all that work for a conversion just trade your old BRZ for the new one and get Brembos for only 3k extra

Was the conversion plug and play or was there new wiring involved?

Based on the write up everything is plug and play except for the wiring.

I did as well. Mine had quite a few fitment issues.

The L on the back means it goes on the left. Vehicle left, not your left.

It just seemed like the 17 bumper and lights were more round and sleek, my 16 bumper and lights were sort of boxy.

how much were the bumper and head lights? looks like the bumper won't work with the '15 head lights and vice versa
