These aerodynamic designs were popular in the 1980s but fell out of favor in the 1990s and 2000s. However, a Japanese tuner called Result Japan is bringing back the nostalgia with its NEO86 body kit for the first-generation Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ. The kit includes replacement front fenders, add-on rear flares, and a wider rear bumper, as well as a hidden headlight kit with pop-up halogens.<\/p>\n<p>The NEO86 body kit is not just a cosmetic upgrade, but a comprehensive restyling that requires significant modifications to the car&#8217;s inner sheetmetal structure. The result is a visual change that makes the GR86 look like its inspiration, the AE86 Toyota Sprinter Trueno from the Initial D manga series. The body kit will be showcased at the Tokyo Auto Salon and will be available for preorder. Interested buyers can also purchase the kit in the US through My Japan Direct, although pricing has not been announced.<\/p>\n<p>The NEO86 body kit is expected to be expensive, with prices likely exceeding $2,000. Additionally, the installation process will require professional help, adding thousands to the cost. However, for fans of the Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ, the unique design and nostalgic feel of the pop-up headlights may be worth the investment. The Results Japan pseudo-Trueno looks sleek and powerful, and its price may be comparable to that of an original Sprinter Trueno in good condition.<\/p>\n<p>The Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ are known for their lightweight and balanced design, making them ideal for drifting and other performance driving. The NEO86 body kit enhances these features while adding a touch of nostalgia to the vehicle&#8217;s design. With its wide-body restyling and pop-up headlights, the NEO86 is a unique and exciting upgrade for fans of the 86 and BRZ. Whether or not the price is justified, the Results Japan NEO86 body kit is sure to turn heads and spark nostalgia in anyone who sees it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nostalgia has a way of making us appreciate things we once took for granted, like pop-up headlights.
