thnks man!

so i ordered some wheels that arrive tomorrow !
kosei k1's in miata spec! 15x7 + 35 all around.
gonna run the same tires on my current wheels.

also on a more frustrating note, i pushed up against a curb in the parking lot, not knowing it had an elongated cement"elbow" sticking out from underneath. pushed my bumper against it, going less than 2mph. (was trying to take an open spot infront of the one i chose) and all i heard was CRUNCH. hopped out and the bumper was off =( more detatched along the front emblem area that meets the bottom of the hood.
adn the driver side bumper tab broke ! fixed it, to where it isnt noticeable, but who knows. maybe it was meant for me to buy a bumper quick release kit tomorrow lol.

cliff notes:

i wanted a front parking spot at target
pushed up against the curb
broke a bumper tab
new wheels arrive tomorrow. lol

Clean! Love the tails bro, I was thinking of doing that to my headlights. Hit me up on how you did it! The pictures you sent me of the K1s look great.

Loving this thread. And I agree with you, white is a perfect colour for a Yaris.

Totally agree. The black paint on alloy looks so cheap!

Didn't you also feel the need to put some dampening material inside the doors? And where did you place the sub?

I actually quite like the fact that a Yaris looks like a little R/C toy.

^^ right on ! Thanks, yeah when I close the doors they sound super hollow ! So I just use it as a reminder to make sure my lady doesn't slam the door when getting in and out of the car, I thought about throwing in some dynamat, but I figured the extra weight wasn't needed ;) as far as the sub goes I have it placed right behind the back seat on the left side but I turned it so the speaker faces the passenger rear coil over if that makes sense lol I figured it would give the sub some air space to bump instead of being like an inch away from the rear hatch when closed.

My bad, you might have updated your avi, but there's another profile pic in a diff place that needs to be updated to reflect on your posts. It's kinda lame the way it's in two places, but what can you do, right?

Really? That's cool. I'm all about personal pref, but I myself like a more factory aggressive look (even though the car is actually the furthest thing from aggressive lol).

Right on ! I like the shorty antennae look for this particular car because of how high the shape of the roof is
