Picture of front fender / bumper joint... - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hi guys,

Still messing around with my fender replacement at the dealer... The fender seems not to be totally attached to the bumper. Looking closely I can see these clips in the gap. Can you guys take a look and see if you can also see these clips? Thanks

I got the same situation, on the same side with my 2015 FRS

It is 98% not your fender. It is the front bumper, if ANYONE removes it, even dealers, it will be messed up and have a bad gap. A lot of brz/frs have this. I even have it, it won't be fixed unless you mod the way the front bumper is on.

Edit: I'm told also if you drive over 80 or so, you will get this.

Mine has the same thing but it looks even worse, probably have to zip tie it or something.

I have the same thing on the passenger side. The shop where I had my lights installed blamed it on poor aftermarket light fitment..

normal wear and tear

If I look real hard, on the passenger side, of my 2013 FR-S, I can just barely see part of the clips. I can't see them at all on the drivers side.

Mine actually pops out about 1/4" on the driver's side. It'll pop back but then driving around it comes back out. I think when it was pulled off to repaint after someone hit the passenger's side that one of those clips cracked.

I have it too on drivers side. Picture coming tomorrow..... 3013 MY
