trueno86power 2017 Toyota 86 - TRD/Tom's/GR
 
Hi everyone !

February 2017, I've bought this beauty. When they announced the end of Scion, the switch from "FR-S" to "Hachi-Roku", with a face lift and mechanical improvement, I was sold! What I like the most is the factory 4.3 final drive, the little but still present engine power up's and the interior refresh.

That is currently my 3rd FR-S/86.

I've began with minimal mods in the first years, but most of the stuff I had was transferred over my "old" FR-S.

When Toyota Japan released the 2017 Toyota 86 GR, I wanted that exact lip kit. Effective, still not to wild and factory fit. Unfortunately, those lips are pretty expensive...

With a lot of browsing, I've did go back to what I like the best: TRD parts. For the front lip, the only face lift lip that I really liked was the Tom's one.

While searching, I've found a TRD part lot for stupid price and got myself some goodies for the half the price.

Topped off everything with the correct GR badge.

Quite happy of how the car turned out, look more agressive but still on the "OEM" side.

Special thanks to @elliejadegadbois for the pictures.

Nice. I’ve considered that Tom’s front lip myself. It’s very subtle

Silver RPF1s on white look so clean and purposeful :thumbsup::clap:

That front lip is also all kinds of sexy

Thanks :)

It's WAY bigger than it look. From the outside it look like a regular front lip but in fact it's closer to a front splitter I was kind of surprised when I've received it !

Thanks buddy ! Love the RPF1, got them on a whim they were cheap and really close to my place. Wasn't sure if I really liked them because of the silver/white combo but when installed on the car I was sold !

Super clean, looks awesome! Would love to see it with the 57DR setup!

Thanks ! Yeah I can't wait too, I'm waiting for my set of RS4.

Very clean! I'm surprised you got the TRD USA catback instead of the TRD muffler available in japan. I bought one and it sounds incredible!

SuperTom 03-22-2020 02:48 PM

Lip looks outstanding, glad you didn't go with the trd lip which looks bulky. I like the c-west sides the best, they are close looking to the trd but don't have that part that extends up the front fender.

I would like to have the TRD Japan axle back but it's quite expensive for what it is. An other thing, I like to keep modifications reversable and well you know it, you need to cut the bumper to install the rear TRD garnish or the rear TRD bumper add-on.

Got the TRD US axle back early in the owning of my 86 used for really cheap, don't know why, I love how the weird exhaust tip look with the refresh 2017+ 86 bumper.

Yeah, never thought about the C-west. Kinda like the mudflap protection the TRD one are giving. I've opted for the Zenki model TRD side since the Kouki one have a weird shape.

I may add like Charge speed style rear aprons to complete the look in the near future.

Makes sense with reversibility. I just figured why not lol. It sounds very good! I might pair it with the Works midpipe to add a little more sound. But idk yet lol

Haha yeah, I'm looking for a uncatted front pipe lol the TRD US is quite a quiet exhaust !

RS4s last forever. While it may not be the fastest tire, its great for seat time. I've been searching for that shift knob forever, I can't do knockoff parts so its not easy to track down. That Tom's lip is fantastic. If I had a kouki car it'd be my lip of choice

Super clean build!
