TRD Griffon Rear Bumper - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Let's face it , we need an option like this. Albeit with a larger exhaust tip and some reworked diffuser fins to make it a bit more street friendly. (less pointy, if that makes sense to you)

I would buy it in a heartbeat. Your thoughts?

I would love it but it doesn't look street friendly. Btw the top portion looks stock, but I believe it's CF. I would buy it in a heartbeat as well, but I bet it's big $$

It can be in the same sort of plastic like the stock diffuser, but it would still like very slick.

Here's a crappy 5 minute chop in paint I did to see what it would look like.( No, it's not an abstract painting :p)

Id like to keep the exhaust where they are since the center mount loses the reverse lights.

Still I need a new rear bumper since mine was chipped up when i tried to put my bike in the car so why not this.

It looks like close to add an additional carbon fiber diffuser on the Modellista one.

+1 on not being street friendly. I can see those pieces breaking off the first time you back into a curb.
