having a bit of a standstill on putting spikes in place of my rear toyota emblem, as i pulled the interior plastic out first just to double check and make sure the two holes were even, and it looks to me that they are in fact, not going to be straight. can anyone confirm this for me? don't want to pull my emblem only to have crooked spikes!

The two holes under the rear emblem are not straight.

I've been thinking about those, but I don't know. I got to see them in person on garms rig, but I was so set on it being badgeless lol. They do look good though.....

I think your Yaris is white, right? He has the white plastic ones of those too. That might look okay. If all else fails.. put some stickers over it XD

Yeah, its white. The color matched skulls would look better. Guess I could always put stickers on them, didn't think about that.

Oh look, new wheels and tires.





They sit about a half inch smaller in diameter than the stocks. very very pleased about that. Also, they're a few pounds lighter and i can feel a slight difference in acceleration which is always a good thing. No rubbing as of yet and I drive a fairly windy / bumpy road daily for work :) Now to get the coilovers!

also, family photo.




EDIT: bored and messed with my sub. Wonder if that'll affect sound? if it does, oh well, it was a free sub anyhow. the middle piece was pushed in so i covered it. if it sucks i'll just buy the one i want.

my gnar gnar is reconstructed totaled, and the guy didn't fit the fenders or bumper quite right. if you look at some of my exterior pics you can see it not line up quite right. I got it close, but ran out of time lol. I also need those plastic clip things that the bumper snaps into right underneath the headlights, mine are a little worn. and those white plastic screw things would be nice, too. im missing some.

I've done one car with a bat and not screwed up paint. heat guns and LOTS of time. LOTS.
