New Yaris, Needs some lovin.

Ok guys help me out. Heres a picture of my yaris, not the greatest I know. I'm debadging it, and getting it tinted. I want to get some smoke LED tail-lights, and lower it about 2 inches. (Mine is on the right.)



I found this picture and I like the way the car looks. Any inexpensive ways to modify my car to look like this one? What kind of headlights are those?



Thanks :)
Court

Those are ebay projector headlights. There's also no inexpensive way to make your car look like that :P

Welcome. Beware the ebay headlights, they're said to be made of inadequate plastic that melts/leaks under heat/rain respectively. They also come with a disclaimer that they are not to be run with HIDs, but it's a case by case thing- some people can and swear by it, some people have had damage done by excess heat.

i ran mine from +35C to -20C and never had issues

also had HID's in the projectors....also without issues...

its a cheap way to really make the car look different..

Buy Clazzio leather seats, and you won't care what the outside looks like. You'll be all like, wanna touch my leather?

The stock horn is pretty lame.
I've actually been thinking of putting a train horn on my Yaris.
