WTT SoCal: My White BRZ bumper for your white FRS bumper.
 
Title says it all, looking to trade my brz bumper for an frs bumper. My car only has 2400 miles on it, the bumper has no curb rash, scrapes or scratches. Comes with foglights, but I do want to keep the led drls.

Nice!!! FRS bumper is going to look awesome on your car! How are you planning on keeping the led's on the frs bumper?

I am brainstorming ideas currently, but i saw the led accent parts for the frs that take up the space where the foglights were, and use them there. Or maybe turn them vertically and cut a slot into the space under the "turn signal"

Nice!! Can't wait to see pics!!

Those accents in the FRS come as a kit. No need to use the BRZ ones

Quick note: Cutting is required to fit Brz bumper on Frs. You will have a gap with Frs bumper on the Brz.

Yes they do, I've been playing with the idea of adding to the current accent, or replacing it entirely.

Is there a link to pictures of this, or a thread? I've seen the black brz that went to an frs bumper without an issue. If you're talking about the headlights they are the same shape. the brz lights have a piece of weather-stripping covering the point, and the point of the frs lights will simply be covered.

I had them both that's how I know. I don't have any pictures. The brz headlight is shorter than frs. It can be done just saying it requires cutting to fit your brz bumper on the Frs.

They are the same size. It's just that little cover. I wonder why you had problems. You just talking about cutting out that small piece?

In this picture you can see how much wider the FR-S headlight appears compared to the BRZ. The BRZ light is missing that "sharp" corner where the headlight meets the bumper, or is it..... In the picture below, you can see with the bumper removed that there is a plastic piece covering up this corner. Removing this small piece makes both the FR-S and BRZ headlight the exact same shape! This also means, customers can do some swapping out of headlights!

Just looks a little ugly after cutting that's all. If headlights are swapped then its all good.
