The Toyota GR Corolla is among the most well-rounded hot hatches on the market, offering fantastic performance and aggressive looks. However, for owners who want their cars to stand out even more, several new parts from Varis are here to have them covered.
Varis parts can be ordered through Bullet Automotive in the U.S. or directly from Varis North America. Bullet Automotive has started accepting pre-orders for the parts, and most should be ready for delivery within 3-4 months. However, customers must wait 7-8 months for some of the most dramatic Varis accessories. So, what is on offer, and will it be worth the wait?

Things start at the front, where Varis has developed a carbon fiber front splitter for the GR Corolla, priced at $1,695. While that’s a lot of money, the splitter does give the car a more aggressive look. A set of front turbulators/fins on the front bumper is available for $645, promising to reduce drag and increase downforce.
The sides of the GR Corolla can also be upgraded with a pair of carbon fiber skirts for $2,295. Other upgrades include a carbon fiber rear diffuser for $845, a $335 exhaust heat shield, and $695 tailpipe covers.
The two most dramatic upgrades offered are a 3-piece, adjustable carbon fiber rear wing that costs $1,895 and a carbon fiber bonnet priced at $2,995. Both of these parts have a transformative effect on how the GR Corolla looks but sadly for owners, they’ll have to wait 7-8 months before these parts can be delivered.
Varis doesn’t offer any mechanical modifications for the GR Corolla, not that the hot hatch needs them. It is powered by a thrilling 1.6-liter turbocharged three-cylinder with up to 300 hp and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque. This engine is mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission and an all-wheel drive system. It’s possible Toyota could offer the GR Corolla with the same 8-speed automatic as the facelifted GR Yaris.
