Replacement fender garnish with led blinker - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

B-R-Z · 01-18-2016, 07:29 PM

Thought I'd share this here because I think people will have interest and may want to buy. I stumbled upon this thread in the groupbuy section while googling something unrelated. I need to start visiting the groupbuy section more often.

(the decal is a sticker that can be peeled off)

Get them while they're hot. GB ends in a few days!

If the Canadian Dollar wasn't so bad I'd think about it.

Really? It looks kind of tacky IMO. Maybe on a black color it would be better...unless you're going for a Storm Trooper look....

That basically means you shouldn't buy it. :-B

Sorry lol. I understand it's not for everyone, but I think it flows with the other black trim pieces along the outside of the side windows and underside of mirrors, and tinted windows. I don't have a full car pic of a BRZ with these fender garnishes, but I found one of another tacky garnish.

This doesn't look as bad as the indicator piece to me. Maybe it's just a bad picture of the indicator garnish in the OP?

edit: Actually clicked the link in the OP this time. Still don't like it. If it didn't have the logo (or name) on it...it would look better. But it's just not doing it for me. Maybe it needs to be seen in person?

I confirmed with the seller that the logo comes off, which it will the day I get it. It's a gamble buying it without many pics of it, or seeing it in person. I will snap a few when I get it and install.

Trying to stop you from wasting money to buy ricey shit. It just looks bad man, and more than likely will stop working in 2 months.

too expensive for what it is.

Maybe like $80 a pair and knock the price of CF versions down to this current $130 and I'd pick up a pair.

I would colour match mine. Remove the brand sticker too.

It also appears to be an actual vent, which is a plus.

The pic below looks like it's just a fake vent.

I think that would be a minus. First, it wouldn't actually do anything unless you cut holes through the inner fender for it to have something to vent. Second, if it were a vent, it would be letting water in where the car was not designed to have water, so that your car would rot from the inside out with rust cancer.

Anyway, here's the pic that looks like it's not really a vent:
