The Charge Speed Fenders were a nice addition since i had 17x9.5 +13 Volk CE28Ns All the around. But there was fitment issues(nothing major) and it was fiber glass. So on a minor front end collision crack goes your Fenders(or lip) Then you have to wait for a replacement, repaint, and re fit since u had to do it the first time.

So when it all brews down to it yea OEM lip Kit will suffice, but id rather this JDM Kit not come to the states and ill just order it and be a Unique FR-S With a JDM Factory Lip Kit.

Yea, i totally get where you're coming from. TRD/OEM fitment is pretty Kosher when you've dealt with some 3rd party parts that "need work". I'm NEVER had 100% trouble free experiences fitting fiberglass parts of ANYTHING on any of my cars, Some urethane parts are damn good. Carbon fiber is hit and miss for me.

It's a chance you take to have a bodykit that most don't have i suppose. A chance i'll likely take;)

Yeah i know that Scion is Toyota..but i was wondering if their white is like the same..

just curious.

Gaah idk if I want this or the factory aero kit.

Also the spoiler on the TRD kit would look a lot better if it was molded to the trunk like that one trunk upgrade for BMW's and the like.

I've heard that the fitment of the kits from FiveAxis were pretty spot on for the tCs so hopefully they do the same for the FR-S

Just noticed the pictures of the modellista and N0 seem to both have the Scion FR-S spec headlights.

I'm guessing what you are seeing are the "low Spec" Toyota 86 headlights, which likely are the same lights that end up on the North American scion (minus optical differences)

Ducktail looks good, but I would want to see aerodynamics testing...

Caliban 01-18-2012 06:01 AM

For the ducktail, duh :P
Topgear claimed that the "spoiler" on the BRZ actually reduced drag. They sound like they could be full of shit, but I would want to see just how the spoiler changes lift and drag. Just because it looks cool doesn't mean it's allowed to get away with subpar performance, at least not in my book.

It could delay flow separation to reduce drag maybe?
