swap brz front end with fr-s?
 
Well since i was thinking the fr-s is cheaper it be nicer to just buy a fr-s and then swap the front ends since i prefer the brz front end. Anyone have that idea? Or think its unpractical?

it's funny you mention this, I want to buy the BRZ for the better interior
and swap the better looking FRS bumper.
I'm not a fan of the stupid smile on the BRZ.

Just be sure to buy the car in a color that's shared between models, so bumper swapping will be quick and easy w/out paint. I'm sure plenty of people will be doing this.

Either white or black, or that gravel black color. you :D?

I have thought about this...I want the BRZ front end as well. I sure there will be people willing to swap and whatnot. Oh and for the guy who said make sure its the same color, thanks for the tip moto.

My first choice is white! Second choice is red, but third is DGM! That's the gravel black you're talking about right? The dark grey?
