They are ARC style splitters made from aluminum and should be universal. However if there is someone local in the DFW, TX area wanting to test fit them, we could set them up with a discounted price if interested.

[ice-_-]

after you test fit and make sure that they fit I'm interested so let me know

[MUSKOKA800]

Those look great. I'd be interested in trying a set if they're inexpensive as my local driveway approaches would surely eat them up.

[RHDVIPbB]

That would be a benefit to me. I normally don't hit cones at auto-x, but I need to protect my bumper a little bit better.

[Rocks A GD3]

I'm about to send out a test piece for fitment, so you guys sit tight!

[zachryboles]

if you want to test them im in ft worth and ill let you test em out

[MUSKOKA800]

That splitter would slice those orange traffic cones in half cleaner that a Ginsoo knife. :biggrin:

What kind of yaris do you have?

[Kaotic Lazagna]

^ He has an '08 Yaris LB.

[RHDVIPbB]

Wouldn't that look funny on the GoPro camera.

[zachryboles]

yah 08 lb and if you hurry you can test em on a stock yarii since i havent installed the springs yet.... OMG MORE PARTS COMMING TOO. just got one of those exhausts that garm just put on sale. WHAT A PRICE!!! Now just gotta install CAI springs and exhaust.... Can't wait!

[Rocks A GD3]

The car can be dropped and we can still test fit, not a problem.

[cali yaris]

they'll be tested on several cars (at least with tape to show them in place) with pictures.

[kustom play]

i would be interested in testing them on my MR2, ive been looking for a set

[zachryboles]

yah ill help you out if you want..... im going to be installing everything on the 11th so if your free that day ill be happy to come out there and we could check them out and take pictures since ill be doing that anyway.

[hondakiller99]

i would love to see what these look like on a xa

[kustom play]

you would have to send me a set, I am in phoenix :(

[Rocks A GD3]

@kustom play, yeah i'm sorry it'd be kind of hard to test fit with you being all the way in phoenix.

@hondakiller99 i'm about to make a post over on the scion forums keep an eye out!

[Rocks A GD3]

I think with an upcoming Yaris test fitting it might not be necessary, but i will definitely let you know. Much appreciated! :thumbup:

[MUSKOKA800]

Please include an '08 S package sedan. :bow:

[cali yaris]

^ If I can get one to swing by, we will do that!

Test fitting should be coming real soon. ;)

[cali yaris]

Here's my test on my Burnout front bumper. Tomorrow we'll do the same thing on a stock Yaris front bumper to compare.

I threw a coat of flat black paint on them (they came unfinished, don't know if they are anodized), and stuck them on with tape :D

They are big enough so you can adjust the angle for the bumper you have. A little pricey IMO, but well made, very smooth lines, cuts and bends.

[Rocks A GD3]

Wow, you wasted no time. I actually think its a good deal considering the ARC ones go for $250 easy and its ABC plastic, while these are aluminum. Looks great!

[Rocks A GD3]

Nice car too btw!

[cali yaris]

well like I said it's a nicely made product. ARC is ridiculously overpriced.

[cali yaris]

I'm sorry to get your hopes up by showing off my car first, but these are not going to fit on a stock Yaris bumper. The angles are just completely wrong for it. I was quite happy to be a test subject for the product, no worries there.

Here are three pictures.
In the last one, I've placed the winglet's front edge way under the bumper (onto the plastic underpanel), and there is still a gap on the outside.

If I drive up to test them on the stock S lip can I get a discount?

It seems to be way off huh. Thanks for the test fitting, yeah i think it'd probably line up a lot better with the yaris factory lip, rather than base bumper.

[Rocks A GD3]

Sure, where are you located?

[darthbauer]

I'm in Orange. In Orange county, CA. About 35 to 40 miles south of Garm.

[Rocks A GD3]

You'd have to work that out with Garm. I can possibly give you a little discount, if you want to test it out.

[MUSKOKA800]

I'm impatiently waiting for that S lip fitment test (with photo's please).
What is the price anyway?

[hondakiller99]

@hondakiller99 i'm about to make a post over on the scion forums keep an eye out!

which scion forum? lol there is sooooo many

[Rocks A GD3]

Theres a minty green Yaris S sedan at my work parking lot, i should just run over there and throw on the splitter real quick to see if it fits.

[Rocks A GD3]

Hey i got around to testing the fitment on the Yaris S sedan at my work haha. It seems to fit really well, although i didn't have much time lining things up perfectly, didn't want the owner to come out and be like 'wtf?' I snapped a couple quick pics and have them up later today, not the best pics either btw but i think it gets the point across.

[Rocks A GD3]

Here you guys, actually looking again it seems to be a pretty darn good fitment, i should have scooted the splitters a little closer to the bumper but you get the idea.
