TRD Canards. On a BRZ.

I wanted to add some canards to my front bumper, but I wasn't digging the options available for the BRZ. I knew the TRD canards were hard rubber, so I figured I could get them to contour to my bumper. I was correct.

I'm trying to decide which your BRZ looks closest to, I think either handlebar or french.

Haha, good job though, it looks cleanly done.

They install using two bolts that are molded into the canards. It requires drilling two small holes into the bumper. And double sided tape that is already on the back side. No heat gun was needed since the rubber it's made from is pretty pliable. I did have to make my own template though, since they included one is for the FRS. I've very happy with them. Adds a nice touch of aggressiveness to the front.

Thanks.

Poke the two bolts through paper. Trace around canard. Cut it out. Place on car. Drill. Install. Repeat.

Pretty simple lol.
