Yeah, I think it needs something with a more substantial end plate. Might have to play with it a little bit.

I will have to check my notes to remember where the spoiler and stuff came from.

Tamiya has since released a road standard BRZ. Part number 51517.

Not sure if the body mount holes are pre-cut... haven't bought 51517 yet.

We support our local hobby shops as much as possible. But when we have to order online, we use Tower Hobbies (and RCmart for the weird overseas stuff).

No it did not. Making your own holes is not so bad. While the body is unpainted, it's easy to mark where the mounting posts need to come through. Duratrax has good and inexpensive tools that are identical to Tamiya's (hole punch & curved scissors).

Im not worried about making holes. I have a E10 chassis and just wanted to make sure there wasnt holes so that I can make my own according to my chassis. Ive been waiting for tower to respond but u answered it before they did thanks.
