Just a few questions (and it is out of pure ignorance) why did you space your hood up? Is it functional? Maybe keep under hood temps lower? Do you just like the look?

Also, what does it mean that you gutted the rear?

Yes the hood spacer theoretically should increase the aerodynamics pushing the air over the top of the car and yes they should help vent air to the environment and decrease the temps under the hood. Whether or not those things actually happen or whether or not the effects would be noticeable on a daily driven N/A Yaris, I dont know. But I like how they look. I have been debating removing them to go the "cleaner" route.

Gutted means I have removed my rear seats, plastic moldings, belts, brackets, and anything else I could lose weight removing. Kept the spare though.

ok, that makes sense (the gutted part). I prefer the cleaner look but know that people spend a lot of money on heat extractor hoods to get rid of the heat. if you can achieve a similar effect for a fraction of the cost...good deal.

The effectiveness of hood spacers is yet to be proven. There was a link on MI to a Honda forum where a guy did pretty good testing, and proved it actually makes internal engine bay temps worse.

My understanding of what happens is, with the pressure zone at the bottom of the windscreen, it pushes air in from the back of the hood. At the same time, there's air coming in from the front of the grill. This results in the opposing air pressures meeting in the middle around the engine, and not allowing the warm air to escape as efficiently.

You'd be better off with a vented hood or scoop to allow more air coming in, or more room to get out.

The worst side effect is that everyone and their uncle thinks I have collision damage and I hear almost daily that I need to fix it, what happened, or someone telling me they can fix it.

Eyelids are not done with paint and the lip was only a test for it needs paint too.

Pics of the new setup will be here in a couple weeks.
