They actually make a brake cooling duct that will go in there but you will be losing your foglights.

It's harder to swap all the BRZ parts into a FR-S than vice versa, which is why so many people want to do this, but if the headlights and fogs are the only thing you care about, you should go for the FR-S for sure. There are more threads about doing this than there are of swapping a BRZ bumper with an FR-S.

Check this thread out for a lead on some GT 86/BRZ parts
You know, it's funny because since that post and after doing yet more research, I think the BRZ is a better deal in the long run. Heated seats just sound fantastic.

Can't I just fit them in the frs fogs or order some legacy h11 glass housing they fit and use the harness that's already there. They're plenty of people who have done this on the forums with no wiring for fogs so this idea shouldn't be to rough.How hard can it actually be.

The BRZ foglights have a different housing to hold them in then the GT86... The 86 foglight kit is around $300. I believe you would need to purchase that kit to keep your foglights. It's all because the shape is different and the mounting points are different... Hope this helps and I can't wait to see it done. GLWB.
