Nice. Is it just me, but my car can be completely clean, but everymorning after the dew gets on the car and i drive somewhere, dirt always drips down onto that part of the back bumper. It's a pet peeve of mine now. I always carry a rag in the back to wipe that off everytime.

Looks great!!! Best bumper protector available, IMHO.

They don't have these in Canada, and I specially ordered one from USA.

Doesn't fade, and matches the honeycomb grille theme of the car.

Plus.... its Genuine Toyota!

Love my bumper protector on the Yaris. Got the OE version that goes over the lip of the bumper. Makes the car look even better!

Peterpoop: Not just you...the back of the Yaris is a magnet for anything. I keep mine in the shop and just walking around stirs enough dust that settles there. Thank god for air compressors.

clay bar your entire car... it will take just as long to do that back bumped and lid as it will to do the rest of the car. i feel your pain

I like the new one (2009) better, as it says 'Yaris' on it...


(Not my car, but it is the bumper protector I have)

This was one of my first mods.

Cheers! M2

TitaniumBarbell, I really like that protector. After rebadging with the Vitz nameplate, I didn't want the protector with the Yaris name on it, so the one you chose worked out best for me. Plus, I agree with Meteorite Marty, it matches the front grille design quite nicely.

Ok Kimona, it's very high quality protector. It's strong and comes with Grade A adhesive 3M Tape on back.

It's more expensive than the 2009 (yaris named) version.
