Hi everyone,
This is for the female yaris owners...how can I make my yaris hatchback interior look pretty and feminine (but not tacky)?

Its my first car, and i'm not sure what I should do. I am also a student so am not rolling in money at the moment and am clueless about cars. I got the car in May of this year and have made no changes to it.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Go with feminine colors..get some pink or violet on there, somehow, maybe? :iono:

Yeah, some nice seat covers with a motif, like Hello Kitty, for example.

And, maybe a Hello Kitty TRD emblem on the hatch... then you'd have a really cool and feminine chick car with a theme!

Here you go:

Welcome to Yaris World...

Well you can take the ENTIRE dash off... Tape pictures and other little trinkets and make a collage... Then go to Pep Boys and pick up some Clear Paint Spray Can and Spray the HECK out of that thing... It should give it a Nice Glossy Protective cover!

Just for the record… I am a Dude!

Depends on how much you are willing to do. The seat covers are a great suggestion and super simple.

But here is someone who did a very nice job of painting interior pieces lavender. http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5833&highlight=lavender

And redyaris changed the fabric inside--really professional-looking results

You could take old t-shirts that you like and sew them together then attachit to the headliner. we did this in my girlfriends car it gave it a girlie punk look. we also glued rhynstones to alot of stuff. like the mirror and shift knob. but other than that a couple cans a spray paint and a look at the DIY section should get you started.

Cool idea, I've seen quilts made of t-shirts but never a headliner! :wub:

Yeah fainty girl, the hot glue gun is your friend. :biggrin: You could stick trim (like fur or fringe) around the top of the windshield, bling up the dash, and it's easy to remove if you ever sell the car.

Another cool thing is clear window decal paper (get it at staples) to print out decals that cling to the inside of the glass. They are see-thru so not so obvious as stickers from outside but very colorful inside.

That looks great for a DIY job! My car is the same colour as that too - except my door liners are just plain black with no pattern.

Thanks for the suggestion. Today I actually saw a car with some hello kitty head rest and seat covers - can't say i'm a fan of that style, but it did make me smile.

you can just do interior lighting pink or purple, and paint the panels as i did in more of those colours... just make sure the yaris exterior colour matches the colours u choose to paint the panels

you could put in a cute rear view mirror ornament, and as the others stated, get some pink or purple lights where your feet go. I have blue lights there, and i also put blue caps on the lights that are behind the ac nobs. you could put some pink or purple caps on those that would be cute!!:smile:

Hi Im new to this site and Im a female toyota yaris owner from sydney australia, Im not really a big fan in making my yaris look very girly, i like the racing look which i have now on 17" 6 spokes gold with a bit of a dish, white is the color of my car with standard YRX body kit 2 inch dropped and 20% tint all around except for the front. I like to keep it nice and simple might consider re-trimming the seats and the side doors for a nice leather look ( not vinyl ) and will be in black and white with my Yaris YRX embroid on the seat to give it a nice touch!
