Fender grill color
 
So the only photos I've seen BRZ with chrome fender grill strike are on the US Subaru site. I've also seen photos of the car with color matching ones like on the BRZ USA press booklet. So will it be chrome or body color?

Hmm great question Hanzo, in my personal opinion I think it depends on the car's colors, also that white car you show in the picture is a pre production model. I don't think I've seen other BRZ with the Chrome. but if Im wrong let me know. I just think it has to do with the color of the cars.

My guess is (and it's just a guess), that the Premium will probably be body-coloured, and the Limited will be chrome.

Maybe opposite of that, or maybe colour based, or maybe just an option.

But that's my guess.

Looks like the black on on SOA site has it too.

It is optional

See the fourth picture down on the BRZ brochure, fine print under the performance drivetrain section.

so does it look good body color or chrome? I kinda like the chrome lol

Personally I'd be fine with body color or chrome. It's the fake grill around it that I'm not a big fan of. The close up photos of it look pretty cheap.

Hanzo 01-19-2012 03:29 PM

I'm normally not a fan of chrome on cars but I think this works because the body color looks so cheap. I hope it's not the whole grill piece but just a cover because I don't want to pay too much for it.

I would like to have the fender vent and front plastic bumper in body color.

I think that would be an interesting look.

Pretty sure they're interchangable between the 2 and after market will probably make your choice even more vast.
