Stant lists the 48308 (OE style 180 degree) as fitting the Yaris and 05' Spyder, along with a dozen or so other cars.

This is why we test stuff. Fingers crossed.

agreed with that guy ^

after i put my rear sway bar on (UR 23mm) i honestly didnt notice a huge change with my autocross runs. I felt it a little, but not enough to say "DAYUM".. but it looks good.

i think my best mod are coilovers and tires.

Pulled the old front off this past weekend. The lower core support was bent up pretty good from the last race. Also the bumper was not salvageable, it was bent to the point of being cracked, and most of the mounts/supports were missing or damaged.

Turns out the #20 Yaris is not going to be used anymore, so we are going to pull all of the support structure and bodywork we need off of it before it goes to the crusher. Best part, since it has the same graphics its just plug and play.

Nothing major, just wear and tear from racing. With the 13" wheels I only have about 3" of ground clearance, dipping a tire off the track means the front bumper/belly pan both hit the ground.

Between getting punted at Willow Springs, and jumping off the track at Buttonwillow, the front end was due to be replaced.

We got all of the useful bits off of the 20 car, and it will soon meet the crusher. We swapped the damaged bumper from the 99 on to it.

Yeah, the whole thing. It's a weld in cage anyway, no way you could salvage and reuse it. The amount of hours that would take does not justify the few dollars saved versus getting a new one built.

The 98 car will stick around for a while, just in case they come up with a use for it - the 98 was supposed to go to the U.S. dealer meeting in Vegas this week, but they took something else.
