What's the one thing that throws this car off? (Aesthetically) - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

The FR-S fender garnish annoy me to no end. I'd love to swap to BRZ ones but they only made the GBS BRZ for one year so there are not many readily available and I don't feel like paying ~400 to have primed ones painted.

Non 5axis bodykit as standard/default, wider wheels would be ok

Yellow Stitching instead of Red on the Seats, Doors and Steering wheel in the RS 1.0. Don't understand what they were thinking on using red in a Yellow car. SMH

Not a fan of Blacked out Tail lights on light color cars.

I kinda like them. The only ones I would replace them with seem to be in the 4k range, maybe thats why I like them

(I convince myself they are nice so I don't spend money)

This thread is going to become a "what the car should have came with from the factory" thread...

Preparing for sh*tstorm.

It is early in the thread and the pot stirrers haven't found it yet. Give it time!

Although this one never really went too far bad so there is hope.

Rear wing, rear b/u lights/reflector.

Agreed with wheel gap, also the wheel offset was to high. +30 seems to be the sweet spot for this car. This is easily fixed with spacers/wheels/springs/coils, etc. Also yeah that odd convergence of panels at the fender trim area is off putting but not a deal breaker. The tail lights and headlights stock are sub optimal but ok. Otherwise a very aggressive and somewhat timeless design for such an inexpensive car.

My car is black so it isn't that noticeable. But on a lighter color, it's horrible.

RichardsFRS · 01-06-2016, 06:08 PM

Wider tires maybe. I really can't find anything not pleasing to the eye. Looks like an old Italian racer looks like Toyota 2000. Looks like a modern sports car. I don't think it should come with back seats. They're useless

Agree!

I realize it allows us to install wider wheels, and the bean counters had to stop somewhere, and it had to be practical in any weather, but 1" lower and more offset or wider wheels and it would be perfect!

I see Mustangs and related with the same problem. Everything looks so sleek and then you see that huge gap.

. At least make it an option.
