FR-S Front Grille Options
 

I recently hit a retread on the freeway and it cracked my front grille. Its not a brad gaping hole crack, just every now and again I'll have to bend the grille back to normal. It didn't hit anything else or damage any of the paint luckily!

What aftermarket grilles are available to buy for the FR-S? I did a google search and didn't see anything.

Search... I had a topic about this that got a few relies, but the short answer is, NONE. Aside from some one size fits SOME type grills.

I searched and didn't find anything that's a direct fit. I don't want a hackjob piece of mesh that I have to MAKE fit.

You could rip it out and replace the bumper beam with an aftermarket smaller stronger one. I'll be doing something like that to expose the super shmexy intercooler.

Is it possible that instead of replacing it that maybe it could be repaired?

I'd be at square one in the end with the intercooler/radiator/condenser exposed and debris would fracture the aluminum rows. Plus being broken down and having to purchase a new vital part would suck.


It has a fairly gnarly cut in the plastic. I could glue it together, though you'd still see the point of impact.

It looks better than the OEM one by far. I'm going to jump on this one.

Id love the grillecraft one if it was more recessed. Looks kinda doofy being flush with the bumper at the top.

Looks like the stuff we use for the fences for the chickens. :lol:

I kind of like that grillecraft one. I'd rather fill the side slots with JDM fog lights though.

I thought the same thing, but it has a frame around it, so it cant be chicken wire fence. Ever try welding to it, I had a fun time doing it. haha


I was thinking the same thing, or Bumper Ducts.

I can't tell if I really like this or if its really tacky.

I was always thinking a Evo IX or X style grille would go nice with this esp for the guys going FI

Maybe I like rice. I dunno, but I do like the grill. I think it looks a ton better then stock.
