It looks way better imo. Plus don't have to worry bout popping out. Body shop cut it out the size I need and they closed off the side marker spot. iirc I bought BMW F90 led smoke side marker which required to attach by double sided. Slice and rewire it and that's pretty much it. if it break, it'll only cost me like $15, so it's not much either.

From my perspective, what Toyota and/or Subaru *need* to do is to make a dedicated 2-seat cab-rearward version of the FT86!
Def understand what you mean and I agree with that. I love lightweight sports/sporty cars more than powerful cars. BUT sales view from them, it's better to sale tad more expensive car w limited production than cheaper limited production car. Especially, they know there's a demand on more powerful 86 from fans than lightweight better handling car.

Again, I def understand what you mean and 100% agree with you... but we're very rare breed.

BUT what if (& if only). Toyota made Supra that's MT, about 300~450lbs lighter, no BS safety or other pointless gizmo w whole purpose make these rare breed of gearhead happy? Of course, price ain't cheap. I'm not talking bout GT4 Supra. It's legit street legal lightweight Supra? Would you consider it? Me? I would, but prob keep my twin... but def something that catches our eyes imo. Is there a such Supra?
