BRZ front grille mod

[bcj]

Important thing is, who's first to dye their 'tash ginger with plastidip?

[OakmanSmalls]

Personally like the stache but I have a dark color (dgm) so it flows w the rest of the car

[OakmanSmalls]

Another option is something like yoshiokas brz. Just google it.

There is a structural crash bar behind it. Not something you want to remove on a street car as you remove a lot of your accident protection. However on a race car like that pictured above it's just extra weight.

I'm soon installing a Full Blown turbo kit and radiator/oil cooler, so the front end needs to come off.

While it's off, I will be cutting the black mouthpiece portion off completely and making my own wire-mesh grill.

I'll also be replacing the metal crash bar with this part which I'll also paint black.

Well these are the best ones I can find other then the last pic I posted that shows the stock components





I kind of like this fron bumper style.


Or you could dress your stock bumper up like this lol

this looks dumb IMO. And the mustache/mouthpiece thing is stupid...

Some people are just too obssesed with and over-analyzing the car's front end.

I like it/don't mind the brz's front end at all. Although I think I would like the look of no bumper and just a grill better.


The Fr-s front end...i just dont like it much. However, I think the 10 series as a whole looks pretty neat.
