It'll look like an incomplete job. Same when people have an rb kit with wheels that don't fit correctly.

Anyway, did some searching (you're welcome by the way) and found this.
I cannot say that I am a fan of Rocket Bunny, let alone one with stock ride height and wheels, but I'll let you decide. This was of course a work in progress and as you'll see, it didn't stay that way for long. |

It will look riced to hell and back.
I don't think this is the appropriate place for this thread; posting in the wrong place will annoy lots of the wrong folks here. Like many others have done before you, you have just gotten/ are just getting your FRS/BRZ/GT86 and you are excited. You want to make it your own with a lot of modifications RIGHT NOW so you can enjoy your perfect car. Slow your roll. Drive it as is for a while. Look at it as is every day several times. The way it looks online and in pictures is a bit different than in person. You will likely change your mind, at least slightly, about what it is that you want to change after you've gotten familiar with it and its body lines. Welcome to FT86.

It will look like a bad patch job like we used to do back in the 70s is what it will look like. Just throw some primered, unsanded, bondo on to complete the look.
You don't need to slam it but at least drop it down enough so it doesn't look like you are going four wheeling.

Rocket bunny cars take a LOT to look good to begin with, 90% of them look like hackjobs. Your idea here sounds like a recipe for disaster, with permanent body modifications to the car. Just....no. |

Wait until after the next F&F movie comes out featuring a RB BRZ and see how many hack jobs show up! Time to invest in a knock off kit manufacturer that produces $100 kits for Ebay.
