Howdy Benjamin! Greetings from Texas!

That is a sharp-looking Yaris you have! :thumbsup:

We used to live just across the border from France in Belgium, just outside of Mons. It is a beautiful area and I miss it.

Cheers! M2

Welcome! Great pictures and a great looking Yaris. The TS bumpers are so much nicer than the normal ones for the 09-11 Yaris.

IllusionX pourquoi attendre 10 ans??
MadMax thanks..

LOL, parce que c'est 15 ans pour importer un véhicule non conforme au lois Canadiennes. Chian, mais c'est comme ça. Encore 3ans et je vais pouvoir avoir une TS 2002. :)

Your English is fine! Nice looking Yaris!

01-20-2014, 05:13 PM
IllusionX ok, je ne savais pas ça! Alors bon courage pour les 3 ans à venir! ;)
Merci RJay.

The next step will be 2 news tyres for the fronts wheels and i'm thinking about the colors of my wheels...Orange? Green? Blue? Gun metal?

BenDelSol

Thanks Debby! But I know i should to practise again and again ..

With a white car?
Black. Or if you want something different make it bright near fluorescent red?

One of the Dutch Yaris club members has that on his wheels with his white Yaris and the effect is quite nice :)

RJay, I think about something like that. It's my ex CRX

Certainly nice, but he's got it a couple of shades brighter ;) It really stands out.

Otherwise get a subtle blue striping and your rims a very dark hue of blue, near black. :) Subtlety can look great too.

Thanks for your advice RJay ;)

Just ventilating my taste ^^ I got a blue one so I'd go with white striping myself.
Maybe I will someday, I'm not much of a spender on aesthetics, especially on my street cars.

I love your Honda CRX! I've had 3 of them since I got my first in 1985....a blue '85 with automatic transmission, then I got an '86 with a manual...then I bought my last in 1988 - a red one. I still see it being driven around town. The only bad thing is all the rust behind the rear wheel-wells.

Cars don't rust in France. LOL

i love the rims. no please don't paint them. if you want to change the colors of the wheels get an aftermarket set.

what size are they? they look like 17s to me.

@scott, the yaris bumpers here are like that, too bad shipping cost of a big item like that from manila to usa is a fortune.

Debby i've got an other one, one grey ! I really love this car! And before this two old one i've got 2 Delsol!;)

BenDelSol
01-22-2014, 05:33 PM
IllusionX i hope you are right, but oldies have rust too.
JCboy yes it´s 17" ! I love the wheel but i want to be more Fun!

Oh yes, plastidip is OKAY. but plastidip would probably flake or something once the wheels reach operating temp.

other than that, it's still a NO don't paint 'em wheels. :rolleyes:

sick ride btw! i like it!:thumbsup:

BenDelSol
01-23-2014, 05:35 PM
Ok, so for the moment the wheels stay grey!
Next month i will buy two news tyres, i think dunlop sport maxx 205/45r17 and in march i think i will order Tein springs because she is too much high and one K&N filter. ;)

BenDelSol

The new wheels look great. I really like the original factory wheels, but these look even better.

kimona
02-09-2014, 04:15 PM
I think the original wheels looked sooo much better!

BenDelSol
02-09-2014, 04:24 PM
Thanks WeeYari and CTScott, kimona I think you really love too much the originals wheels..;)
I love the OEM wheels but in 17" they are so much heavy...:(
