The most they would bring over are the springs, short shifter, and strut bar. I wouldn't count on anything beyond that. A tS here is not going to happen especially now that it's based on the "older" car. Keep in mind that a lot of the mechanical upgrades the 2017 is getting are actually based on improvements made with the tS, GRMN, and gazoo racing cars.

There are definitely noticeable flaws, but I'm not complaining...

I'm just happy that they are available (even as reps) as these will be as close as you get to the real ones without the tS VIN from Japan...

I'll bet it'll just be PP + the same old like body kit, rims, interior stitching, maybe a tower bar.

I believe the front and rear bumper shape are different enough that the lip kit won't fit actually

I agree with you. It will not exist in the short term future a newer version of tS. Maybe a version of the PP model with some STI parts, but even this cannot reach the level of the old tS car. They'll not transfer all the improvements to the base version and for sure not the racing parts!

It is not a tS part, but I liked that it was installed on a tS car. Fujitsubo exhaust!

Finally got the GT wing fitted to mine. I gave up trying to find an un-drilled boot lid in 37J and no one wanted to swap for the stock spoiler so I fitted the new Aimgain X Stancenation Lip spoiler to cover the holes from my OEM one. I'm quite happy with how it turned out. Here's a couple of pics.

is the aimgain/stancenation lip spoiler smaller than the TRD one?

Yes, I would describe it as more of an extension to the lid than a ducktail spoiler. Here's a pic of it before I got it painted from a different angle.
