yeah they did. I guess they could have been attributed to the old oem mount. The whole transmission area tunnel is much more "cultured" now sound-wise

Finished what the previous owner started. '13 FR-S with '17+ BRZ front clip. He had on the BRZ front bumper with GT86 headlights lol. Added the oem brz headlights, leveled them to my liking since FR-S doesn't have the leveling feature, and added replica STi lip. I previously had a STI and bought an OEM sti lip for that car. It was $400. Never again am I spending $400 on a piece of plastic that will get beat up anyway. Also installed a homelink mirror. Learned through these forums that the wiring is in the headliner.. and to my surprise it was. Easiest homelink install ever. Bumper sag is definitely there, and the corner side marker clips are broken |

Somewhere in Googleland there is a video on using a ziptie to fix the marker lights. I did it and it's simple and it works. Bumper sag can be fixed with those quick release buttons attachments.

From what I've been reading, the toyota badge doesn't fit on the indent of the brz bumper? So I'll either keep it like that, debadge the rear (don't like the holes though) or just go full subaru, lol. |
