Ah, there it is! I was trying to pinpoint it, it is a Viper look.

None of those cars look anything remotely like it..

Looks mean but I still prefer oem BRZ front so far.

I like it, a lot. Probably would've bought a BRZ if that was the factory bumper.

I would put some teeth in the grill to give it a big grin

I like it, would like to see it in white... Any idea when it'll be available?

Not a big fan of it. It just doesn't look right on the car.

I still like it. I don't really think it mimics any of the cars posted. I also like the OE fit and finish with the tow hook, plate frame, etc..

it's a timeless look that won't go out of style in a few years. The FRS front, however, I can see it's like a trend looks good these years but out of style in a few more years.

I think it looks better than the stock Tom Selleck treatment, but not sure its enough of an improvement to buy as a replacement.

I think something like the Elise front end would be nice, but I'm not sure how well that would flow into the rest of the car.
