BRZ Intake cover/grille - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what I could do, my black plastic grille is all scratched up and was wondering if anyone had suggestions on what to do about that. I can't just take it off and replace it because its an older model.

If you are referring to the mustache then your options are to cut it out, sand it down and paint it, replace the bumper, or upgrade the bumper.

Cut it out. I cut the grille part and left the "mustache" and it looks fine just do a better job than me, haha. Never really finished it cause I had a new bumper coming in.

Thanks, I might just sand it out and repaint it, I’d buy a nicer bumper but I have to pay off the car still.

You can still get a nicer bumper, : P. I need to pay it off and I have about 10-20k into it, haha. Just keep your stock parts and if anything goes wrong you can replace the after market stuff with stock.

I just bought the Rocket Bunny V2 bumper to replace my stock one. There's a few options out there.
