The white definitely looks different in the pics I have seen... plus FR-S black seems to have a lot of metallic in it vs BRZ black.

Subaru so smart, design the better looking headlight and all the Scion guys will pay to get them. Genius. Car engineered and built by Subaru and now lighted by Subaru.

So I guess my overall decision will be based around interior and price. I hate swapping gauge clusters and redoing wiring but bumpers and headlights are a breeze especially if the paints match up.

I don't even want to imagine what the cost of shipping a bumper would be from Europe/Japan/Australia.

Really. I just think it is such an awkward size that UPS/FedEx would charge $$$. I have shipped a MTB frame to Europe and that was ~$300 and weighed ~10lbs in the box.

Basically you get a broker to get it in with a bigger order and the cost goes down.

I already (or will have) a supply channel to the UK (host group buys) etc..
