Looking for a trunk swap. SSM or Argento

Hey guys and gals,

2 summers ago (2015), I did a trunk swap with an FR-S with Monogram spoiler, to get rid of the (personally) hated OEM BRZ Sport-Tech wing. He wanted something a bit more aggressive, and I wanted the opposite at the time, so everyone left happy. I personally did the swap myself in my driveway (with his help).

I am still rocking the FR-S OEM Monogram Edition spoiler on my car, but I've grown tired of the look and I'm now looking for a spoiler-less trunk so that I can do some kind of aggressive duck-bill or something in the future. Please note that the FR-S Monogram spoiler is also drilled, not taped, so there will be holes if you decide to remove the wing later on. However, it'd be a nice upgrade for a base-model car.

I am looking for a SPOILER-LESS trunk from a BRZ or FR-S. BRZ SSM (silver), and FR-S Argento silver will work. My current trunk is from a '13 FR-S in Argento and the paint matches perfectly. Someone told me that Scion changed silvers later on and it's a bit darker. *EDIT* based on some research, it seems like the darker silver used on the FR-S is called "Silver Ignition". This unfortunately will not match my car, so please only SSM or Argento Silver.

I would also consider a full-carbon trunk with built-in duck-bill, plus cash on my end, if there's someone out there who's looking to go back to stock. Long shot, but worth a mention.

My current trunk up for trade is in 9/10 condition, with one small chip near the top corner by the glass on the passenger side. It has been de-badged (so there is no "Subaru", "BRZ", or "FR-S" badges on it at all). There is some oil-spray on the underside, as the previous owner had his car rust-proofed.

I am not in a rush, as it is cold AF outside right now, and the swap took a good 2+ hours all said and done. Ideally I'd want to wait until it warms up a bit, unless we can find somewhere with enough space inside. But I figured it wouldn't hurt to put the feelers out now to find a potential donor.




Thank you for looking!
