yaris-one · 01-03-2010, 04:14 PM

wheels, yes, soon
drop....ehhhh....i have to drive over a wicked spike strip everyday, its torn out alot of peoples exhaust ...groundeffects...and whatnot....soo, maybe maybe not.
and yeah prolly get the spoiler too

Black Yaris · 01-03-2010, 04:23 PM

you can do a mild drop.... just to get rid of a bit of the wheel gap. You can also get a slightly over sized tire to fill the gap, but not too big :)

supmet · 01-03-2010, 04:31 PM

I'm liking the white. I probably would have done the cup holders and the change drawer too, but it looks pretty good.. did you just paint them?

blacksandiegovitz · 01-03-2010, 10:08 PM

Your interior just took a trip from 09' to 99' lol

yaris-one · 01-04-2010, 12:39 AM

i did paint the cup holders and everything, its dificult to tell but i painted the top of the dash and the cupholders and all that from that charcoal grey to satin black

yarisugi · 01-04-2010, 12:57 AM

I like the contrast. How does the paint hold up? What kind of paint did you use?

PETERPOOP · 01-04-2010, 01:05 AM

wow. cool!

*tomato* · 01-04-2010, 01:23 AM

I think it looks really nice! What did you use?

And by the way, if we haven't said that yet, welcome to the forum

!

kustom play · 01-04-2010, 02:36 PM

I have a good feeling its going to look like crap in a month or so

its hard to keep white clean, it always marks up

Roscoe · 01-04-2010, 07:29 PM

Nice Job!!

Stoln · 01-04-2010, 08:02 PM

It takes guts to remove the whole dash and than paint it. Way to go and welcome to the forum. I really like the job you did. Looks professional and so clean like a factory job. Wanna do mine....lol. What's next?

GeneralDon7 · 01-04-2010, 09:12 PM

nice first mod, it looks good.

yaris2010RS · 01-05-2010, 01:32 AM

looks very nice..... very star wars......lol, very nice, very clean. iunno about satin black in the summer......

yaris-one · 01-05-2010, 10:27 PM

i just sanded, primed, painted and clear coated it, nothing rele special. thin coats to make sure no runs and all.
i usually dont have a problem with keeping the car clean, except recently, i have been taking numerous trips to acquire a bunch of stuff for another project im working on, hence the lowes sticker...lol.
i usually vacum and amorall wuick wipe every week, and then every two weeks i was and fully clean the inside amorall spray, protectant, and all the bells and whistles,
the only thing i could see getting horribly dirty is the shoe strip that i debated back and forth what to paint it.....

thanks for all the feedback.
next mod
prolly black out my tailights and get that retro fit projector set from cali-yaris ( i want projectors so bad)

PHXDEMON · 01-07-2010, 10:29 PM

Quite extensive for a first mod and it looks great. Good luck keeping the white clean though.
