I do like the shape of the bumper.
The bumper looks like it needs to be moved to the left a little. On the left it sticks out past the lenses and on the right it dose not go out to the edge of the lenses. You can also see the gap difference if you look at where the trunk lines up with it.

@firebob
i saw what your were talking about so i went down stairs to take another look. actually its even, the gap u see in the lenses is actually the same on both sides cuz this is an 08 and before rear bumper on a 09-10 yaris.. check out my other thread on the gap distance on the lenses to the rear bumper. and it looks like it needs to be shifted cuz i wasnt standing directly behind the rear bumper, thats the shadow u see where the door is. it does look like a gap. but i measured it on the car. its less then 1mm difference on each side
@henry33: YES! soon hopefully.. maybe g/f will buy me a nice valentine gift that can make that gap look better.
i actually had to cut the exhaust tip off the stock muffler cuz it was hitting the inside of the rear bumper. i see why it was cracked there and why he sold it for so cheap. had alot of rework to do on that bumper.

That’s cool the camera angle and shadows made it look like more.

oh yea.. my bads. i didnt realize u were doing the carbonfiber wrap. i have reading problems. dur.
The rear bumper looks awesome and that works with your spoiler pretty well.
I saw you mentioned in other thread that the side skirt is coming, what kind is it?

thank you very much. i do like and i think it flows very nicely, i just put my side skirts on today but as i was droping the car from the jack stands it started pouring rain. ill have pictures up tomorrow afternoon though. i do not know the name of the skirts but they do look like yours except instead of going inward in the middle its flared from front to back.
i really like your rear bumper also. that is actually my first pick and if that was offered before this one, id jump all over it. i would really like the C-one front bumper to go with it
