Body Kits and Exhaust

I was looking around for some body kits and obviously there are the rocket bunny kits, but i recently discovered the aimgain aero kit and i think it looks sick. Does anyone have preferences? When I was looking at the aimgain one though it had a bar across the grill and i was wondering if that's part of the kit or just the stock from the GT86&BRZ becauseI know the FRS doesn't have it.

Also titanium exhaust vs stainless steel/other materials??

Thank Youu!

I personally think all aftermarket body kits are horrid. Better to go with what you prefer, and not ask for other's opinions.

OM F-ing God, this is the nastiest thing I've ever seen. Rocket Bunny has finally been dethroned. Bet they sell a ton of them.

Won't be long until we have rivets along the roofline.

ETA: Farewell, fellow 86-er's. I leave you now to rip out my eyes in a vain attempt to unsee this thing. OP, good luck. If you go with this, you will have truly, ah, unique, vehicle. "Sick" is the word.

ETA again: OP, if that's your Instagram, it would look totally horrid for such a beautiful woman to be seen in that thing.

Considering this has been around nearly as long as the rocket bunny I doubt it.

Ahh, typing with one eye. First I'd seen of this monstrosity. Seriously, OP, don't do it. I'm not just putting this one down to age on my part, either.

It's obvious this is your first time owning a Japanese car with a wide aftermarket support base in Japan.

Kits like these are very typical of what comes out of Japan. Give it 10 more years, you'll wish there was some black market eye replacement surgery to help you out after you've ripped out your eyes 10 more times...

And the haters are here! Seriously guys don't you have some prostates to massage or something?

OP, do whatever you think is best. You'll get no support on the subject of body kits or lowering your car on any coils other than Ohlins or KW.

Personally I prefer rocket bunny to aimgain, not a fan of that 1. There are other options, some crazy expensive(Varis) but awesome

Ah yes. Come out swinging calling people haters and then follow up with hating on them for their choices! That makes things go smoother.
The skeptic in me says we will never see another post from the OP anyway but I have been wrong before (so far I am at about 16 to 2 so my intuition has been pretty accurate).

Their choice to abuse people on the internet for not doing things their way? Yeah I have a problem with that. If you want to run KW and not go low or get a kit, that's fine. Just don't come into a thread and be all "OMG the car is ruined now body kits are for ricer ***s." The first page has 4 of like 7 posts of people bashing the Aimgain kit or body kits in general. If you can't say something productive then don't say anything

If you want to say you think not getting a kit is the best idea that's fine, just be respectful
