Undercarriage aero panels: Not on US BRZ? - Page 7 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

My BRZ has the driver's side long panel already in place, so I'd only need the two tank protectors and the passenger's side. Then it's just a matter of fabbing up a set of rally style suspension flaps to finish smoothing out the underside. Leaving a gap around the muffler to act like a crude diffuser.

The stock panel only covers some of the drivers side. The optional Jdm pieces will cover more of it.

I'm not so sure. I think it's the full piece without the tank panels. I'll have to climb under there and take another look.

I'm all about the carbring stuff, and top it off with one of those carbon drive shafts. Yeaaaa.

Mobius357 · 09-30-2012, 09:01 AM

Looks good, I'd be in for a group buy.

Captain Insano · 09-30-2012, 09:35 AM

Nice find on these parts and the info on the cd differences.

xcelir8brz · 10-12-2012, 04:36 PM

Any group buy info yet?

chanomatik · 10-12-2012, 04:41 PM

On Japanparts.com they're offering a set of four (4) for $15 off each... I mean, if you can find four people and trust one person to purchase everything at once, then you have a winner.

Otherwise that's all I've seen. I haven't talked to a U.S. vendor or anything myself. Maybe there's someone locally that can get their hands on some JDM parts? I know it's hit and miss with some and usually dealerships have better pull.

xcelir8brz · 11-06-2012, 04:03 PM

Any update on another source to purchase?

chanomatik · 11-06-2012, 04:55 PM

I'd eat the $250, personally. It seems like one of those fixed-price things since it's so JDM. Or one could ask another company to develop their own version.
