i think the yaris S looks weird without the spoiler. was it your choice, or it was to save couple bucks ?

anyways, good work :) that red swaybar would look deadly hot on my yaris :P

I want a spoiler the only option at my dealership is a lip spoiler, I hate that spoiler! I want off the car spoiler w/light bar. It has been on my list of things to do since the car was purchased. Waiting to find "THE ONE".

I dont know.. I am thinking right now they might be throwing the corolla spoiler on them. i saw one at the dealership (a corolla) and it had a spolier and it looks the same..

i think the lip spoiler that looks like the Camry one doesn't look that bad...how does your Yaris feel with all of those parts compared to stock?

It’s all about personal taste I guess. I don’t think the lip spoiler is ugly; it's just not me...

1st most noticeable thing to me is the 35’s profile tires, it’s a bit louder and rougher and that’s to be expected. The ride was stiffer and much better with that tire! No more swaying in the wind with the big tractor trailers on the highway!

2nd most noticeable change was the AEM cold air intake. This is no race car or mustang but the difference I felt in the performance was night and day!

3rd noticeable thing to me is looks… The wheels and tint made the car look like a different car… The drop sets those two things off just right!

4th comes the Megan header… Again this is not a race car or mustang but the performance after the header went on from mid-high to high rpm is really nice!

5th the springs a sway bar… We’ll being that its been only one day and I have been mostly on the interstate and the few times I have been on a curvy road to even give it a little test I was behind a pokey and every opportunity to pass came a car from the other direction (funny how it always works out like that) but I can feel the stiffer performance just waiting for me to give it a go!

I’ve said it once and ill say it again… its no race car or mustang but these changes has made this car awesome! It’s not a little ole Yaris any more… In all I say this car has made a total 180 in looks and performance!

If I bought another one I would change it in that order too!

Now I am saving and waiting on a Super Charger, spoiler and a custom paint job (nothing too major or flashy). I think then I will be done.

do you think just lowering my Yaris with Tein S.Tech springs will make me less vulnerable to cross winds? i'll probably lower my car first before i put on some tint.

what kind of custom paint job are you planning on getting?

[Chris07LB]

Its just something I noticed on all TRD, Tanabe, etc. rear springs installed on the many Yaris here, and the Scions over on the other forums.. the tight pack of coils goes on the bottom. Weird that the instructions said to put it on top.

[Go4th]

Thanks for replying again! It lets me feel better about your confidence! I will flip them soon I hope. It is a good thread for the next person to do it right. But they are probally smarter than me and my buddy and think were stupid. Like I said we thought it was wrong and had them right but the instructions seemed to want them in that way. I misread it or something. Even my buddy was like that sure is weird must be these TRD springs or something. Thanks for your Chris07LB!
We will uninstall them a 3rd time and put them in a 3rd time. 20mins max.

2 things.

I like your Yaris, you did well.

You are nuts to even consider putting that much money into a Yaris, come on, a new paintjob? Are you nuts?! You'll have like 25 grand into a econocar, when you could've just bought a used EVO instead..

I like your sedan. I personally hate spoilers, like your write it's all personal taste. May be you should tint the rear lights. Great stuff.
