universal bumper duct - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I've been Looking for alternatives to the Garage vary asymmetrical duct .... found this guy.

Looks like it might fit in the vertical section of the bumber below the hood badge on the FRS, or fit easily inside the mustache of the BRZ...
Not sure how to gauge the curvature.

more air for FI application, trying to bring CAI temps closer to ambient, move more cool air through the engine compartment and out of modified side vents

The sections you are talking about are where the actual bumper is. That is the steel beam under the cover. You can not cut into that if you wish to street drive your car.

Let's assume there's a beatrush or some other drift bar replacing factory bar, and the styrofoam is gone...should have clarified that, sorry.

Well, i don't think that drift bars are allowed on street driven cars either. Of course it may depend on if their use is noticed or not by inspection, but their use sounds as legal as not allowed to be cut stock steel beam, and in case of crash/accident insurance companies might get on your tail.

if it's placed just below the body line then it might fit above that crash beam

@canyons Have you found any more info on the Uras universal duct or similar products?

Have you found another solution?

Curious about this... I sort of like the option you've already posted.
