Yes it is still badged as a Subaru in the back. Im on the prowl to find a "correct" sized subaru badge on the FRS bumper. Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I despise the scion badge..

Gonna make my own splitter as well to go under the lip similair to Jive Breeze's old setup as well as a set of APR mirrors soon!

P.S Sorry for the "toaster-esque" quality of the picture.
Haha, I love how a GTI looks like a minivan next to an 86.

In other news, I took my car to a shop down the hill where the guys were kind enough to throw it on the lift for a minute. Good news: no metal stuff is cracked, my exhaust leak is just a leaking gasket between the frontpipe and the midpipe. Toot!

I wanted to do this as I've loved the Toyota front bumper more, but the badging issue is what deterred me. Had I gonna strictly "Toyota" then it wouldn't have been a big deal. At this point you'd have to do the opposite of what Jive Turkey did. He shaved is off, but you'd have to have your front bumper badge area modified to fit. Almost seems easier to delete and reapply the area, but I think Jive kept stressing that it was cheap. In the end I just couldn't rock a Scion emblem and decided to follow the "Subaru STI" route.

Your car looks good!

Are you talking about in the wheel well area, at the very back closest to the rear tires?

It's not hate. The title of the thread is "What Did You Do to Your BRZ Today?". FR-S has their own thread for FR-S related things. I like the FR-S. I almost got one. Just wondering how we got an FR-S post, especially moments after posts joking about the BRZ with the FR-S front bumper swap not belonging in either world. Such torn.

I just figured it was nice to come here and see BRZ-only pics, and scour the rest of the site for a mix of either car. Otherwise there would just be one giant thread titled "What Did You Do to Your FT-86 Today?".
