A few SMALL changes... - Toyota Yaris Forums

33OH · 07-24-2010, 03:38 PM

Ignore the (lack of) quality of the photos, taken from my droid.

Front bumper "garnish" (vinyl)
Painted rims gloss black, left the Kosei K1 decals as stencils to create black rims with key lime green logos
Rear netz emblem, painted black
Depo projectors
And a few small things, stealth turn signal bulbs.. etc.

New pic - 9/6/10

Just an update - removed the "front vinyl garnish". As echo_hrs said, you battle with it every day on liking it or disliking it. Overall - much cleaner look and I'm glad to have tried it, but have decided it's not for me.

YAR1S · 07-24-2010, 07:10 PM

close up of the wheels???

kac · 07-24-2010, 07:54 PM

emblem on the back looks good.

solarVitz · 07-24-2010, 11:04 PM

Oh man, no more lime green wheels? With black wheels its hard to see the face of the wheels.

Anyways looks good on the new setup.

Looks WAY better than the green paint IMO. Good choice on painting the rear emblem black. Just need some fogs now and a real retro projector headlight one day. :P

Thanks all. The bright green wheels were a nightmare to keep clean. I was cleaning them every day and they were still filthy. I've had black wheels before and decided it was time to go back to them.

I would still like fogs, some taillight tint, and one of Garms front grills.

I didn't care much for the green wheels on silver car, I like the black better.

That's how I felt. The wheels themselves were amazing. Thrown onto a silver car, just looked mismatched. If my car were black or white..

I like the black wheels better. I'm thinking about painting my wheels black as well.

33OH · 07-30-2010, 01:36 PM

33OH · 07-30-2010, 01:44 PM
