I would think awful. I personally like the mustache and think the BRZ bumper looks better than the FR-S because of it.

This is the answer if you don't like how it looks. Either that or get an FR-S.

I never said i don't like how it looks. just wanted to see the effect of it in body color. CBS is not a good color to have a true feel of the mustache in body color. Body is shiny shiny, mustache is mat black.

I'm thinking yellow foundation on Ned Flanders.

That or Charlie Sheen with a mustache heavily saturated with cocaine with food colouring to match his skin-tone.

I'm wondering if they originally designed it without the mustache,but had to leave it in for crash standards. Looks really natural to not have it....hmmmm

I don't think it'd look too good. Different texture n' all that. Hence why I prefer the darker colors for the BRZ because they hide the 'stache a lot better.
