Just do the front in red and keep the rear drums black is my only suggestion. Bright painted rear drums is a little ricer-ish IMO. :thumbdown:

Don't listen to these goons, red and black = So boring. Pink is obviously the way to go.

I kid! Red/black or dark gold/bronze would look sweetness. These guys know what they're talking about!

I dig the rims, wing looks good too. Whole thing looks nice, just gotta pretty-up those drums and calipers!

Thank you guys!! Caliper will be red for sure!!!

What do you think about putting nicer taillight like the altezza or 5led one that garm sells..?

I love too the headlight with projector on ebay!!

Lol yeah don't rice out the car haha

Thanks I had my yaris riced out once trying to look for the right look, it is why I am sorta giving you advice, I mean if you can avoid it do it. It will save you money.

Exterior: you can leave it how it sits OR get a OEM or lip kit and lower it, but I think it's already lowered?

Interior: i would had left it the way it was with the exception of the control panel. One thing I been wanting to do to my sedan is upholstery and get em done in black leather.

I didn't mean anything wrong just in case

yeah I lowered it with Tein spring :)

I want the lipkit...but OEM is expensive as hell...and aftermarket one are kind of 400$....plus 200$ shipping to Canada....shipping is pissing me off :(

Yeah I plan to do my seat with clazzio cover :)

So far I ordered...

projector, CF b-pillar, CF emblem, RS emblem for front grill, trd grill, eyelids,

I want vios spoiler and vios visor...then it will be okay with white wheel paint :D

I also ordered radiator hose, microimage crankpulley, megan header, NRG grounding kit, the engine bay will be red...maybe a tanabe front strut bar would help driving and make it beautiful

dont worry i know you were not saying somehing wrong :)

I will avoid too much sticker, too much ebay badge,

ALtezza tailight with light tint would be great and are not ricer :)

<<Is it too ricer>>

So first I thought, "He drives a rice-burner, how can anything he does to the car make it "too ricer"? Then I had a number of thoughts on whether the terms "rice-burner" and "ricer" might not be a little too racist for the Forum. Then I realized that Asians use these terms, at least in California, the way Blacks use the "N" word, so THAT should make it okay. But then I thought, but we can't use the "N" word on this Forum, so why can we use the word "ricer" here?

Just a question... .

two totally different things. You call someone who drives an asian car a ricer, and if they don't laugh at you they will walk away. You use the n word to a black person and you better be really good at running, because they'll be likely to beat you to death.

The words have two completely different histories.
