Bayson R. It's their take on the kouki TRD. However it doesn't exactly fit the zenki bumper. I didn't realize the 86 bumper was that much different.

Ah, so you had a little fitment trouble? Or was it pretty easy to overcome?

I didn't even realize that they changed anything on the rear. Thought it was just the front end.

There are mounting holes that I couldn't use, so I had to resort to double-sided tape. I guess the center section of the 86 bumper has different mount points.

I thought it was just cosmetic too. But I guess the wavy part on the diffuser changed how it's supported.

Been stuck the past two weeks mostly WFH except for occasional essential outings for groceries and whatnot. So last night I took my camera and tripod, and went on a quick drive up highway 9 (fun road neaby). When I came back into town, I decided to look for a spot that would be empty with lighting to try taking some night photos. My car is filthy so apologies for that, but I thought these came out pretty nice:

Ended up also swapping in the STI push to start button I bought in Japan last month (excuse the dust.. I just aircan sprayed it last week

):

I sent a used listing for winjet headlights to my frs friend. He was like "u should def buy them, and let me snag your boomerangs". Lmao, like I'm letting an frs get my boomerangs. I see no reason to ever change headlights. CEO anti frs brz club

Did a bunch of stuff at my friend's shop today.

Picked up my SSR GTX01s (17x9 +38) that I ordered over a month ago, put on a set of Nankang NS2Rs (245/40, 255 too thicc), installed Tanabe Revel coilovers, put on a set of clear Valenti tail lights. Also got my Tomei UEL headers but that's on hold for a later time.

First impressions coming from stock: Steering is going to take some getting used to because now it feels super responsive in the corners, coilovers behave almost too well on city streets and feel about 90% similar to stock despite having a spring rate of 8K front and back, it's comforting to have decent tread on the rear tires again.
