finally redid my headights. i have not baked them back togeher yet and need advice on whether to put LED lights inside housing or not and where.

I also grew my car a mustache. I did it myself, so its far from perfect, however i did impress myself. I will now name my car Mr. Mustache...and may eve make a new account under that name.

kinda looks like some pictures of a VW GTI that I have seen (the mustache part).

Yeah, I love that look. And I'm pretty sure thats what inspired the black bumpers on here.

IMO, the GTI treatment looks better if it drops down from the bottom corners of the upper grill, runs parallel to the vertical bumper crease, then flairs out a bit at the bottom to meet the lower grill.

Looking forward to seeing the completed headlights.

Looks more like a goatee! If it were a mustache, wouldn't it be on the top of the "mouth?!?"

Cheers! M2

yeah i couldn't quite figure it out, but i may redo it on another off day. have an example picture? i could tell something was a little off.

goatee yeah, but Mr. Goatee sounds more like a child molester, whereas Mr. Mustache or even Sir Mustache is ok.

IMO:
h/lights "eyes"
emblem "nose"
upper grille "mustache"
lower grille "mouth"
i think he meant it grew longer :biggrin:

It's a hitler 'stache. Cuz TickleTimeTim is just that hardcore.

did headlights, they look good, but they WILL have condensation. that glue sucked to work with. absolutely terrible. i should have bought extra sealant.

oh, and i changed my shifter after seeing the awesomeness in the "stickerbombing" thread. i turned my boot upside down so its almost flat, then i put black vinyl on the shaft. now i just need a derlin or similar shift knob. something round.\\

you're welcome :p Looks good, by the way! Now I know that leather will look good if i ever change it.

yeah, i loved the look much better without a boot going all the way up, so i just turned it inside out and upside down and it worked decently. what i would really like is a piece of black plastic to cover the shift opening with only a small circle in the middle to allow the shifter to move.

thanks again for the idea.

I've been trying to find a sheet of the super durable rubber stuff those kids toys are made out of, i think that would look good :)

plastic would be cool! If you do it you gotta post it up, that's an awesome idea

hey tripple t do you have a bigger mirror or something over your rear view?

TickleTimeTim
02-03-2012, 01:46 PM
The eyelids are still on my old headlights, I may put them back on but only if I finally paint match them.

Yeah, I got the broadway mirror from garm and I love it. However, now I want the one that goes all the way across the windshield.

matthewai
02-03-2012, 01:50 PM
oh like the wink mirror

matthewai
02-03-2012, 01:54 PM
but the broadway jsut attaches over the stock one?

mr_miles
02-03-2012, 08:30 PM
o'reilleys auto parts sells the wink mirrors and the windshield mounts, if you like i can take a few pictures of it so you can get a better idea :3 i change periodically from the wink to the broadway, lol.

yes, matthewai, the broadway is just an attachment that clips onto the stock mirror. they're really nice, especially the blue tinted ones.

I think he has one of these:

@mr miles:

@TickleTimeTim:

I think everyone would just assume the lotion was for "Tickle Time" haha.

Yeah, I have the larger Broadway that clips right over my mirror, love it. But not as much as I love tickle time though.

Spidermandud
02-04-2012, 03:22 PM
Do you feel it improves your view-range adequately enough? Give it to me on a scale of 1-10 going from 1-I'd probably not buy it again to 10-i'd never drive without it ever. I do feel that the rear view in the yaris has a rather small range; but i'm not sure if I want to replace it or not.

mr_miles
02-04-2012, 03:50 PM
I found it to be really helpful. I had it positioned so that i could see out the entire rear window, and the rear passenger side window as well. I could also see myself, lol.

TickleTimeTim
02-05-2012, 12:24 AM
How miles has his done, thats how mine is. Whole back window, side window, and my sexy self. Hah. Prob an 8. It would be a ten if I hadnt recently driven a civic hatch with the full mirror, cause now thats what i want. But you should get one.

Spidermandud
02-05-2012, 01:05 AM
Will do. If I don't decide to go with the wink haha. . . . seems to me I saw a diy on one of those laying around here somewhere. TO THE SEARCH BAR I GO~!


edit: On second thought; I may just stick with one of the larger mirrors. Who knows.

mr_miles
02-05-2012, 01:56 AM
Start with the broadway - then later if you decide you want a wink get one! Occasionally i swap them out, Nice to change them every now and then.

I just wish I had the convex, instead of the flat......

matthewai
02-05-2012, 09:56 AM
well hey i actually have this its blue convex 11 inch
i tried it out but i feel like it makes stuff look to far away also its not a broadway but since i got the other on the way from mi no need for this one

TickleTimeTim
02-05-2012, 02:01 PM
I'm pretty positive i got the 300. It's not tinted or convex though. It's a Broadway and its awesome.
