2 pics attached.

MODS: Tailights tinted, headlights tinted, back windows 5% tints, front windows 12% tints. 8k HID headlights installed, 16' Rota Racing Rims installed, Metallic coat + clearcoat racing stripes painted, chrome trim on wheelwells, chrome doorhandles, chrome side mirror covers, new intake installed, new suspension springs, lowered~ 1 in.

I'm an amateur at the whole car modding thing. Took me about 3 months to finish...about $1,000 total

front windows can only have stock tint also, but few people obey those laws. You can smoke tailights and headlights as long as back-up lights and headlight bulb output are in accordance with DOT standards.

haha yeah most of the chrome stuff is temporary, in the end it'll just be the mirror covers, door handles and wheels. the trim looks tacky in my opinion

the racing stripes are decent imo.

Once again, may I ask how much the headlight color costed?

The DUB sticker on the front killed me ... I LOL'd for real.

I'm not a fan of the chrome trim, but I like you made it personalized to your taste :)

Welcome to the forum!! :)

Whats DUB?

Kal-El

dot?

Department of Transportation (US)

Whats DUB?

20 inch wheels in reference to a car.

That's why it's particularly silly on a car without 20's.

Aroberts,

Your car is showing potential, but as you said yourself, the chrome trim's gotta go.

It screams PepBoy's/AutoZone shopping spree. No offense. :smile:

Rims, tint, racing stripes...looking good.

.Kevin.
11-21-2010, 05:38 PM
Ah thanks Kal.


Btw, if you're going to trim something do the interior imo. It's bland inside the Yaris and you seem to have somewhat skill at placing it lol

Aroberts

the 8k headlights are bought in an HID kit, you can install them yourself, it was NOT easy with the housing unit so close to the fusebox in the yaris HB. if anyone has the Yaris HB and tried to do an HID conversion kit themselves, they know how f**kin difficult it is. It took me about an hour and a half, but if you have small enough hands, shouldnt be longer than 20-30 minutes. Just involves attaching bulbs to ballast, ballast to relay (the yaris HB is H4 bulb input) The kit price ranges from 30-$90 depending on quality. I wouldn't pay less than $70 imo. I am in the process of getting HID foglights as well, maybe 4k's for the yellow look.

OP id loose all the cromo effects tha cars got and the DUB sticker, you can leave the side pillars like that but thats just me, hope you dont take this wrong but it looks kinda ricy, just some advice, unlike some ppl i will tell you if the car isnt the best looking because of the aftermarket parts. I can help if you want, with some advice or just ask some members with black LB I am sure they are willing to tell you whats wrong and what would look good but and the end its all you

Aroberts
11-21-2010, 07:19 PM
Yeah I agree, I plan on just leaving pillar chrome, wheels, and doorhandles. That adhesive is a pain in the ass to get off in the cold, so I might wait til I have a heat gun at my friends garage, or just until it gets warmer. thanks for the advice though, much appreciated

On the grass we have 4 cars at home and two in storage.

House cars:

Toyota Echo 2005 (dads) up front rarely used has like 50,000kms on it?
Toyota Yaris 2010 (mine) in the second driveway slot behind the echo, it's what I use 5 days of the week to work so I go out the most meaning I get the best spot :D
1993? Astro Chevy work van (dads) the one in the photo is on the grass he uses it for work at night there is enough room for him to back out etc so he just goes there its a piece of junk on wheels anyways, it has like 350,000kms on original engine lol
199? Plymouth minivan beside my dads its my uncles he uses it for all the other shit with my grandma and aunt to go around town they go out when im at work so they get that spot lol now that there is snow it SUCKS for the cars on the grass.

Oh and the van only has 80k kms lol

then in storage we got our muscle cars
