OEM limted brz spoiler or Tommy kaira Spoiler - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

rhood168 · 12-07-2012, 09:22 PM

Trying to figure out which spoiler looks the best and we need your opinion on it.Without the whole tommy kaira kit who knows if the spoiler alone looks good on a stock frs.
The price difference is nuts and im pretty sure the tommy kaira spoiler doesn't come painted while the brz one does. Which one would you choose. Would you pay 12800 for this spoiler.
If you have a better spoiler throw it out there(with Pics).

I think it depends on the rest of your car. If your car is stock, then the Limited spoiler looks better. If your car is lowered, and you're sporting some kind of body kit, then I'd definitely go with the Tommy Kaira wing.

OEM.

$1300 is a bit too rich for a non carbon spoiler, even then, OEM is just right for the BRZ.

FRSGT86 · 12-07-2012, 11:53 PM

Honestly I don't care for either one of those. I went with the 5 Axis spoiler and like how it looks.

I like the westcoastconcepts and the Stillen, they are both pretty mild compared to these. I can't link but they are both on the first page of this section.

Tommy Kaira all the way! I love that spoiler! Also check out the Seibon AG spoiler, it's hard to find not-SEMA pics but it looks awesome and is on the same scale as the Tommy kaira.

The BRZ spoiler is nice enough... for a stock spoiler. But if you're paying to have one put on, go with something a 1/4 of the cars on the road don't already have. My vote's for the Tommy Kaira.

Or wait till after Tokyo Auto Salon. I'll guarantee there's going to be a flood of new parts for this car after that; and unlike Americans the Japanese still LOVE spoilers, so you can bet there'll be several new choices available.

My preference has always been subtle for appearance mods, but that's my personal preference. Go for whichever you want, don't let price get you down - if you want it that bad, save up and get it; if you settle for less, you'll end up being disappointed in the long run and probably change it out eventually, which will make you waste money.

Neither, the TommyKaira spoiler looks terrible and the OEM BRZ one is mediocre at best. Go with a 5Axis or TRD.

To me the whole dolphin tail setup looks terrible. I just don't like it enough to spend 400 bucks on that when it personally doesn't look that great especially from behind . The oem looks better than the 5 axis and trd in my opinion.

MyRx · 12-23-2012, 12:05 PM

I'm with you rhood. I'd like something back there b/c the wife says so. On that, I like the spoiler that is on the FR-S brochure (red FR-S, wrap around, subtle). Perhaps a JDM OEM. I would like to see the BRZ spoiler tho with less vertical 'canards' or fins. Sand those things dorsel fins down, then I'm game. IMO.

BlaineWasHere · 12-23-2012, 12:06 PM

Just wait like another 6 months. There will be more offerings and maybe one that fits what you want more.

I want to do something with the trunk, but I'm waiting until mid-summer.

TheCzar · 12-23-2012, 09:12 PM

i would go with the tommy kaira if your planning on getting some other body kit upgrades to go with it, but if your planning on keeping the body stock i would probably go with the OEM. i personally want the tommy kaira myself but im not to sure if it would look nice with everything else stock.
