JDM front bumper
 
Hey all! Searched and couldn't find anything but a guy decided it would be awesome to back into my FR-S and jacked up the front bumper. I am looking to replace the front bumper with the gt86 one if anyone has the part number! Hope someone can help out! Thanks all!

The GT86 bumper looks identical to the FRS bumper. Not sure why you would want to spend more money when you can get the FRS version here in the states.

Now I feel dumb. That is more than likely why I cannot find anything about it.

What the fudge are you talking about? The JDM bumper is made of a specialer ABS plastic that only weighs a couple grams. It also has JDM sprinkles installed that drop the coefficient of drag dramatically.






But seriously the only difference is everything surrounding the bumper. Headlights, side marker lights, fog lights and badge. The bumper beam is also prolly different but I don't have confirmation.

If you want a "different" bumper you can do an EDM(Squirters) or BRZ.

If I was looser with my money I'd totally do the squirter bumper with switch and working squirters...

Beyer Subaru 03-07-2013 09:30 PM

Heh, or EDM BRZ? Then it'd be a FR-Z?

OrbitalEllipses 03-07-2013 09:32 PM

EDM BRZ. Wish we had Euro regs for those squirters...super useful.

Also there are the little warts on the nose for the (I believe) parking sensors/cruise control sensors. That's the only difference I ever noticed.

I would live parking sensors on the FR-S one thing I really miss about my old Fusion.

If none of you mentioned anything about how USDM and JDM bumpers are the same, I would have sold him a few USDM FR-S bumper as a JDM bumper... and profit.

LOLOLOL

Hope you've found your bumper, OP.

Still no luck even with that. Everything I have found so far has been body kit stuff. I am just going to let the body shop handle it since its an insurance claim anyways.

Those are an Accessory that you can add. You could have those installed aftermarket anywhere. You could also retro-fit the JDM ones to work.
