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!

That's funny..I thought it was a minivan until you said that.

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?".

Installed my Cusco rear lower control arms. Super easy install, just in time for my performance alignment at Gran Turismo East and some fresh Michelin Pilot Super Sports!

yeah I am, although the one in the front wheel well will probably rust too

Thanks chanomatik for the compliment on my car! And for not being a cock about me posting my car in here still lol. I had a huge spiel and was about to be a butt hurt little girl but then i saw who the commment came from and said "Hey,I think he's pretty neat and has some cojones for having one of probably 2 maybe 3 BRZ's in Alaska.." lol

I apologize for invokeing the other FR-S related posts in this thread but like I said I was hoping that someone on the subaru side of this world could point me in the correct direction of a subaru badge for the FR-S bumper. ( I dont know if I could ever bring myself to telling someone i drive a Scion... I sound like a pretentious prick now but hey that's what the internet was made for right?! )
