2019 BRZ grille replaceable (?)

My mustache got damaged by some road debris and I see the part is sold separately from the bumper: https://www.subaruparts.com/oem-parts/subaru-grille-57731ca450

Has anyone done a replacement?

Thanks. So you don't think that the fact it has a new short block will discourage people from buying it?

They are offering 11k and I owe 8. I would not buy another 2013 given all the service bulletins for engine issues.

I'm on the same boat, the idle was weird a couple days before it went. How many miles do you currently have on the rebuilt engine?

Both 13's I've owned had the wiring harness/coil issue. It's actually a flawed design so I feel bad for anyone who didn't do it under warranty . . .

I don't think it's the clutch sensor because the car does start. It runs for 2-3 seconds until power is cut off.

Hope it works for you as well. Overall all the shifts are smoother (not notchy) and not hard to shift into 1st or 3rd like sometimes was the case before.

All they did was replace whatever fluid was in there (no way to know) with the OEM Subaru fluid. They did both the transmission and differential. Nothing else was done to the car.
