Looks good to me!

Now go to WalMart and buy yourself the biggest exhaust tip they sell. It costs around $12 and looks great! I think any mod'd Yaris should have an exhaust tip, as the stock tailpipe alone looks weak...plus it is a cheap and easy addition!

Cheers! M2

Hey thanks for the input, I have a Greddy ti-C exhaust modded to my Sedan, I am looking to swap out the headers and exhaust pretty soon to my liftback. Where in Texas are you located? I have family in Dallas and Houston.

They are BF-Goodrich's Ultra High Performance All-Season Tires, I stick to the ground heavily.

The car looks great, now that it handles go for HP. I run the same tires in 205 50 15, I had the Azenis 615 before and thought this would be nowhere near as sticky, was I shocked, these are much quieter and stick really well. The Azenis would not work well until really hot, The BFG sticks well even if its 40 degrees.

Please dont!

Looks great to me. I don't like the color of the car. However, it looks it's best with black wheels IMO.

So with that said, looks great!

ps: picture quality is crap

I'm still deciding on what company to go with because im feeling the TOP SECRET kit but Kaminari actually looks better to me now, I saw it a couple months ago and it looked very Euro, but giving it a second look, looks real smooth, thanks for the input.

Thanks, the wheels are 16 x 7's wrapped around 205/50ZR16 BFGoodrich g-Force's, extremely thick might I add.

definitely a different feel when you take them out, took me a while to get used to the different braking as i became very front heavy.. the rear half popped up to stock height(i was set at about 1/2-3/4 down the way) so had to totally slam just to match front. if you have 60/40 it is really easy to pop out the seats, i watched as my exbf did it to my car
