Are there any trailer hitch options yet - Page 6 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Very clever, does this space the bumper out tho or is completely transparent once everything is back together?

I need one of these to haul my motorcycle to the track

Can you please weigh this part? that way we know how much weight we are semi-perminantly adding to the car.

It's completely transparent. The crash beam actually sits a few inches inboard of the bumper and does not support the bumper at all.

That's what I will be using it for

Don't think I will be selling these. Not sure of the regulations/liability issues with this. I guess I'll have to check into it and keep you guys posted.

Depending on regulations and interest I may change my mind.

Wow that came out great. No holes in the bumper at all? Very clean. I wonder if it will fit both the frs and the brz.

Very slight trimming on the inner side of the crash beam flange (not structural) and no modifications to the bumper, exhaust, etc. Completely reversible. There is no difference between the frs and brz at the rear of the car.

You know you could just sell a kit with loose parts that are not welded together. I believe that would release you of all liability and if you sold it with the statement that this is not for street use that may also release you as well. At the very least you might be willing to share the dimensions and sizes along with any cad you may have. Thanks
