FRS front bumper garnish, interest? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

tunami · 10-07-2013, 02:43 PM

Im looking for this type of lip to get for my car, but the only one I have seen is on ebay and its pretty pricey for what it is. I emailed Mark at Stillen asking if something affordable could be made similar to the JDM front bumper garnish, and he said its possible if there is enough interest. Would anyone be interested in this type of garnish?

i will 100% buy one

JDM - $300/ way too much

Plasti-Dip - easy, affordable, very easy to mess up

Vinyl Wrap - easy, affordable, hard to find retailers and to cut exactly

I'm down to buy as well. Just not for $300

I really think the most I would pay for something like that is like $50. I would like one, but I have no idea why they would be expensive. I couldn't believe how much that garnish was when I first saw it on eBay.

Yeah, seeing your pics was the reason i want this!

For what it is, $300 is a lot of money to spend on something that's purely for looks (and some protection).

Glad to see there is some interest here. What material is going to be most desirable for everyone? Urethane, Fiberglass, Carbon Fiber? Keep the interest up. The more interest the more likely we are going to be able to move forward with something like this. Thanks!

Edit: Are these bumps on the garnish important to anyone?

i would go with something that would be the most durable or more like rock resistant?

Team STILLEN · 10-11-2013, 02:48 PM

That would be Urethane
