And yea, the paint a good paint shop uses needs to cure for 3 months. That is a good thing.

We see the "spoiler" as a waste of money, particularly on a front-engine car, both in initial cost, and in wasted fuel. We see the "wing" as a large carrying handle, plus the advantages of the "spoiler". Aerodynamics on a vehicle under 50mph is a contradiction in terms IMHO.
I will buy a pair of rocker panel skirts (if Cali will let me), only to cover up the ones bent on frozen snow drifts over the years. That will be as close to an aero kit as I will get... |

I wasn't targeting you, sir, I am just saying that I do not believe in the Yaris as a high-performance vehicle requiring aerodynamic assistance. Lambo? Sure. Ferrari? Absolutely. I used to laugh at whale-tails on VW Bugs. How silly!
Cleaning up any vehicle to help it's fuel mileage and performance is fine, but said vehicle MUST be capable of benefiting from the additions. I'm sure that if all this stuff made a difference, they would have been included in the design. Personally, I have found after decades of Playing the Game, that the best performance gain is always weight loss, followed by rolling resistance. I don't mean to spoil your fun, just don't make it out to be more than it is: bling, and of no real value... |

Everyone has a great idea of what they will do to a vehicle.
Granted my yaris, on a daily basis will drive me to work, and drop my girls off at the inlaws, run for groceries, and will aloow me freedom and time alone to de stress. But I have always wanted a "tuner" car (I am now 30). I am learning so much thinking of things and how to do them to my yari. It is just so much fun. I my own humble opinion any spoiler will finish the look of the car off. I mean in a girls termanoligy. I would never wear flip flops with a nice dress. IT JUST WOULDN'T LOOK RIGHT. I do go over 50 mph everyday so maybe it in some way will help w/ gas mileage. But that was not the point. I wanted it to have a more finished look. I believe I acheived it. I do have a list of things I want to to and my tech friends from the dealership I have and do work at are giving me suggestions. But you all can help me find products and tips easier then they can so I real value all of the imput. I truely appreiciate all ideas, and critisims possible. I am a new peson to this and I am learing so much. No bad vibes here. |
