So i just had my floor mats shampooed but i noticed the white lettering yaris gets dirty pretty fast.

Thought this gave a cool sporty flare that can be easily transferred between cars and floor mats when they wear out and i purchase a new set. Its bolted in place with 4 screws and fits perfectly in the cutout its like it was designed that way

The idea is cool. TRD unfortunately stopped being so a long time ago.

Agreed immensely. It is really a hypocritical moniker if anything. Toyota has seriously narrowed their performance efforts to only very specific items and models. That is what happens when you shoot for the top and become vanilla to be the "best" on paper.

I used the provided nuts and bolts that came with the kit

Funny, as we rebadge ours here with Yaris (US/CA) or Yaris with YRS or YRX emblem (Australia). Rarely do they rebadge as Belta, as those emblems are a pain in the a$$ to find.

Me? I rebadge the displacement + trim level (e.g. "1.3 G") to "RS" and stayed with the Vios. haha. Even my fusebox has a "Vios RS" DIY cover--similar to the TRD fuse box cover stick-ons available on the web.

Back to topic: to the OP, i find it Cool. how much did you get that for?

They were 7.99 with 4.95 shipping on ebay. The quality is really good its pretty thick aluminum plate.
