Wide body 2013 BRZ

What's up Yall? What kind of wide body kit do you guys recommend for a 2013 BRZ?
A lot are made for FRS and I've read the fitment for the headlights dont fit as they should and so on. Anyways, my budget would be under 2K. For a full-body kit. Any recommendations??

If you only have a 2k budget, why not wait until you have more? Don't force something so permanent if you can't afford to do it 100%, yeah?

I think the chargespeed kit is the coolest, but not widebody. You'll be spending 2k in wheels, tires and paint alone for a true widebody experience

you can do a fair amount with 2k. you can get rocket bunny front over fenders for $500 and rear for another $500. the full kit with front bumpers and side skirts is more.

you can also get rallybacker full kits for just over 2k shipped

no prob, i bought the rallybacker version 2 full kit direct from rallybacker last black friday, i think the whole thing came out to be 2100 USD shipped. you can honestly buy a widebodied brz for ~15,000. they dont sell for much because they are already "molested". Buying an already widebodied one might save you money because you could maybe sell your current one for 13k and buy a widebody frs/brz for 15k, theres lots of ways to go about this.

you have to think realistically, buying widebody spec wheels/tires used is 2k, wrapping costs a MINIMUM of 2k, install of the kit 2k MINIMUM. you might still be on stock suspension which is going to mean theres another 1k you need to spend. def go widebody though, set your sights and dont look back. sure you can wrap and install the kit yourself, but honestly its going to look like trash if its your first time.

I hear you. But I would spend 2K on the body alone. The rest like wheels and all of that is a different budge. But while I love my car. Spendinh 4K on my body parts. Just isn't part of my plan. I've seen some stuff I like for about 2K now.
I'll check what you suggested out for sure though.
Thank you.

Thank you. I appreciate for the detailed overview of the expenses. My brother works at a shop. So he's installing it for a 24 pack he said lol.
And I Have some connects with the wrapping and tires. Plus I love my car too much to sell her like that. Thank you for the suggestion.

No prob. Def check out the "widebody 86's" Facebook page, lots of helpful community feedback there for any questions. This forum is generally comprised of purists and trackies that respond with dad jokes to your questions about fitment and widebody. There are MANY widebody kits but I'm not going to bother listing them all bc they're 5,000usd and up, just for the fiberglass panels alone(varis). two affordable authentic jdm kits are rocket bunny v1 or v2 (v3 is more expensive) and rallybacker.

Rocketbunny v1 and v2 is by far the most common kit out there, but for good reason, the kit is rock solid.

And rallybacker v1 and v2, still common, but not AS much.

Rocket bunny v2 comes with a front bumper, side skirts, over fenders., rear diffuser. Rallybacker has no front bumper, and diffuser is seperate. Most people buy direct from shop.greddy or rallybacker. However, there are many people who work in the industry at tune shops that work directly with these companies, have them in stock, or could special order you part of the kit, say for example you wanted rocketbunny v1 but no side skirts or front lip or diffuser. They could get you just the overfenders. Reach out to the widebody 86 Facebook group
