Front spoiler
Hi,
New to the forum and yaris ownership! Just purchased a 2007 3 door YR, loving the car and it fuel economy! One thing that is a bit annoying is the front spoiler. I know a lot of transitions into carparks and garages have this heavy dip but i find im scraping the front spoiler a lot, even when going at less than walking pace with just me in it (68kg) and no heavy loads. Tyre pressure are fine also. Anyone else find this? I cant think of anything else that could be causing it, unless my front shocks are knackered and i don't believe they are as the handling is fine. I know the spoiler is low (ish) as its one of the reason i like the look of the car from the front, but it seems a bit to much for a stock, non lowered car and not very practical. Any ideas would be great! |

Your YR has a front spoiler? The YR and YRS don't come with front spoiler only the YRX. Unless you mean the whole front bar/bumper.
My YR is lowered with pedders and i don't scrape anymore. I just have to drive more carefully. I did scrape it a few times when i first got lowered. But you just have to enter and exit slopes and stuff abit slower and maybe turn off them at more of an angle. Other then that there isn't much you can do really. Is your Yaris lowered? If it isn't the Yaris is actually queit high and it shouldn't really scrape that much.
