Had to wait for those red lug nuts. As soon as I got them, I had it installed right away.

I do plan to lower it a bit soon. The only question is "How soon?" Hopefully, not too long.

I'll probably paint the calipers when I install the springs.

If you really want to paint it... try black only. For reasons, I don't suggest any other colors.

TRD Springs Installation


Finally !!! Got over 1000 miles. Took me almost 4 months. So, while waiting for the 4th of July fireworks, got busy modifying my toy. I decided to go with Brick's suggestion to leave the caliper as is. Followed Chris07LB's suspension springs DIY which made it a lot easier. Took a little over 2 hours with a 20 mins. lunch. Came out pretty decent. Gave my Yaris a new look.
