If you get the look right, I'll send the money before you even cut the mold. One thing I would really like is to still be able to use the fog lights. I'd be mighty happy with a clone of the 09 TS bumper:

frownonfun · 10-09-2009, 11:10 PM

you can count me in for an 09 kit as well assuming the look is good. i also like the TS bumper but don't know that i'd want an exact clone. but i would prefer a complete bumper and not a lip kit. i'd really like to see something that makes it look sportier without going too extreme and something that gives it a lower look in the front.

personally i'd love this one with the bottom black lip pieces all part of the one mold...

*tk-421* · 10-10-2009, 06:28 AM

That front bumper is sick. I agree that the extra black lip kit would have to go. The only problem is that I already have a Burnout bumper to work with, but I could work on a bumper based on the KavinT design as well if there is enough interest.

IsLNdbOi · 10-10-2009, 06:39 AM

I'm interested in a kit for my 5-door '09. Would it come painted or unpainted? I'd want one that doesn't look over the top / too extreme and that would work with fog lights w/o having to mess with the stupid shrouds.

*tk-421* · 10-10-2009, 06:45 AM

The kit would most likely come unpainted since there are too many color variations between countries.

The Burnout front bumper allows for foglights and no shrouds are needed. Heck, you can pretty much buy any foglight kit (even non-Yaris models) and it should fit nicely.

IsLNdbOi · 10-10-2009, 06:49 AM

How much do Toyota dealers' collision centers / body shops usually charge to paint a front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts?

*tk-421* · 10-10-2009, 06:51 AM

By the way, it seems there are already 3 people interested in an 09 kit. If we can get 7 more people committed to buying a kit then I will come through and make one for you guys (based on the same components).

PETERPOOP · 10-10-2009, 12:36 PM

no matter what, please make it so there are no holes or bumps for a front license plate to go..

*tk-421* · 10-10-2009, 12:48 PM

good idea... I kinda hate those too.
what do you guys think? bumps or no bumps?

cali yaris · 10-10-2009, 01:03 PM

no bumps, people that have to (like us here in CA) can still install a front plate. I'm jealous of those that can have a nice clean front end.

PETERPOOP · 10-10-2009, 01:09 PM

Didn't know it was possible for Garm to be jealous of any other yaris!!!!!!

i would put my hand up

, but i think shipping would really kill me
unless i bought it back as hand lugage

.
then i would need to bring back 2 or 3 to pay for the trip

*tk-421* · 10-12-2009, 11:24 PM

That can be arranged. Let me know if you want to go that route and we'll figure something out.

any pricing for a 09 kit? i might be down for it once i know a price range. O and correct me if im wrong, but the 2010s look like same as 09s so that might help for more interest.

1NZYaris1 · 10-12-2009, 11:33 PM

are you doing sketches of the bumpers first ,
or just going straight to Bondo and having a play

i have seen the quality of your work so i am sold almost

thewifesyaris · 10-13-2009, 12:21 AM

The front bumper will use the Burnout front as a base. I have already drawn the proposed changes on top of the bumper... What do you think so far? (sorry for the crappy pics / quick sketches)

A bit more opening up top...

This is the bottom lip... I want to recess it a bit (Diablo style, but not as extreme):

I've heard quite a few requests for this spoiler... It has a good chance of getting fabbed.

It was a great eight year run, but it was time to focus on other things. I'm still selling parts on eBay under micro*image seller ID and customers can still make requests for anything specific.
