What made you get it? Does it actually make the car look better? Does it help protect the car from bigger debris?

well i got it because i hated how the stupid bugs would get caught on the original one. they actually just put that grill on top of the one you have. I would say it does protect the car from bigger debris!:thumbup:

Looks great, I was thinking about this same style for the FRS but I don't think the flush grill looks as good on the FRS as it does on the BRZ. By the way, did you pass me on Garfield and Valley yesterday? I was in the Ultramarine FRS.

no you don't. it actually goes in front of the original grill. Im not sure what to call it, but you know how it has the 3 panels it goes in front of it.

Did you do the install yourself without removing the bumper? When I looked at the directions, it shows the bumper coming off to install clips to hold it on. (which stopped me from getting it). How did you do it??

Makes the gap look huge somehow. Then again, if it doesn't increase performance, I'm not the easiest person to sell.

I may actually think about something like this to reduce the amount of snow collecting in front of the radiator in the winter. Though I suppose it also might have the side effect of ice forming, covering it, and severely hurting airflow.
