Those black rims are hot, which are they?

Car looks clean, I like everything but the stickers, but that's a personal opinion. I just am not a huge fan of having cuss words splayed over the back window of cars. Just my opinion though, I do really like the car.

But he's cussing on the front window. Does that make any difference?

Enkei 92.

Need more pics at better angle NOW!

[Thirty-Nine]

More pics with the 92s!

[muffin_top]

The stance on the 92's is spot on!!

[mr_miles]

hehe, sorry for the delay in updates - been fairly busy doing misc things around the house. updates asap, I promise!

[yPod09]

Looks REALLY good. Great tire/wheel sizing combination, looks like a slight amount of stretch.

What happened to the gold wheels? Those are some of my favorites ever!

[mr_miles]

The enkei 92's are 15x8 +25mm offset, with 195/50 series tires :). i got rid of the 522's a long time ago, traded them for the D2's. Now I'm probably trading the d2's this week lol. Maybe for some 0 offset wheels....either way im sure you guys will see them :p

[mr_miles]

Hokai. Some updates, yo!

here it is all tinted,Right before I bathed her. It's apparently a 38% tint, which according to the tint guys, evens out to about 35 after installation (because of the slight tint yaris windows apparently have), so i'm at the legal limit in Oregon. They used some sort of "carbon series" tint, which apparently good. LOL BEATS ME I DUN NO NUTHIN BOUT NO TINT. *I went with this shop as he was a childhood friend of one of my good friends, got a discount, lifetime warranty, and they'll change it to whatever I want if i ask*


Oh look, you can see the D2's inside. Was going to trade them but the guy lied about the condition of his wheels, so NO GO.


A shot of the vinyl work. Absolutely craptacular. The vinyl ripped and stretched way to easy when I applied any heat. Fortunately, this was bought solely to test wrapping awkward pieces like that, so it's 3 dollars not particularly wasted. For some reason I couldn't get the wrinkles out of the folded over edges. any pros with suggestions on how to do it? I've always wrapped large flat pieces, or small simple things. any help on folding corners and stuff is appreciated!



Interior shot of how I'm rolling as of the moment. Gotta finish the speakers, asap. I need my damned music, dear god.



And finally, the exhaust! It's way low to the ground, and to think i'm actually riding higher than I normally do! this will be interesting...









overall I'm surprisingly pleased with how the TI-C sounds. it's not loud at all. at an idle it's very smooth. sounds a little ballsy when I step on it, but not ricey or fart-canish at all! The video's make it sound borderline aggravating, but IMO it sounds nothing at all like it does on youtube.
