Pretty sweet man. But what is the NCP91 stand for?

NCP91 is the chassis code for the liftback. I believe the sedan is NCP95. Cars are often referred to by their chassis code... AW11, E36, AE92, etc. Never seen a car badged with the chassis code, so I figured what the hell. Dare to be different.

Looking good. I wondered what the black wheels would look like. I tried that "View" mode on Tirerack.com but they show the Meteorite Metallic soooooooooooo frickin' dark and then the background is just about the same color as the car.

Keep up the good work.

The custom badge cracks me up! :laugh: I like the way the headlights came out too.

For your headlights, did you smoke the frosted plastic piece? Smoked "T" emblems looks good! I'm digging the custom badge, it is definitly different. :thumbsup:

On the headlights, I used masking tape to carefully tape off the parts I didn't want smoked. It took a good hour of taping to get them just right, but in the end I feel the result was well worth it.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

The code on the back looks tight, it makes the car look important. :eyebulge:

CC, do you mind if I ask how you removed rear wiper? It looks so super clean that way! :drool:

By searching I found a couple threads that talk about doing it, but gave no instructions.

His car came w/o the wiper. He bought the bone stock Yaris. I happen to love my lil wiper, and taking it off seems just... like cutting off a appendage. It really does give a nice clean look though. Maybe for my 2nd Yaris I'll get a bone stock one as well for autocross n such.

First off, I will be smoking the tails eventually. No doubt about it. I just want to enjoy them in their all-natural beauty for a little bit.

I bought the car without a rear wiper among other things... no head unit, no ABS, base base base base model. Came with the all-weather package because we need that here. Other than that, NADA! Would have taken the power package, but I'm working around that too.

Thanks for the comments. I still need to tie up some loose ends and wash the car. Needs a lip kit, exhaust, couple other things... goal is to have this thing ready to turn some heads by next summer.

Looks awesome. the chassis code emblem is really cool. Seems like an extra touch, but gives it originallity.

nice now i can see what my car looks like with the black chrome lip rim. did you tint your windows at all? i think the rims look even more sicker with the rear windows tinted out.
