Does my Yari look weird? - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

ChinoCharles · 07-25-2007, 10:20 PM

I'd leave them as is. It looks fine and its functional.

reznunt · 07-25-2007, 11:29 PM

looks like a mustache! =)

I am sure it is practical.

You can try to do the photoshop on how they look like body color matched.

Maybe you will like it.

As long as you owned a yaris, there is no such thing as a ugly car to me

well like everyone else said its ultimately up to you. but to me it looks kind of weird but also its kinda of cool, I am hung on the fence on this one, but i do like the sides......

hasher22 · 07-26-2007, 02:41 AM

doesnt look weird looks stocked to me

Kioshi · 07-26-2007, 05:12 AM

it looks like it has whiskers....the Yaris a bunny rabbit now. But anyhow, I guess for protection, its worth it, right?

Some moron lady reversed into me w/o looking behind from rear view mirror....so in that case those help. Then again, wish I had them so I wouldnt have gotten 3 small line dents in my front bumper~

Thotprawsis · 07-26-2007, 08:04 AM

It's just my opinion, but I would take the front ones off.

voodoo22 · 07-26-2007, 08:54 AM

Do these aerodynamic accentuators give you a noticeable increase in fuel mileage?

I'd keep the side mouldings, but I personally don't like the adolf stache on the front or how the back ones create a seperate lower line on your car.

It's your car though and all that matters is that you like it. It's not like it looks bad.

I'd suggest you also get a rear bumper guard to protect from scuffs and scratches when you take things in and out of the car.

I think it makes your car look French!

Do they stick out further than the body line at the door handle? That's where I worry about dings, stupid SUV's everywhere with doors that will dent my roof

nope. your car now look more euro.

spinejaruk · 07-27-2007, 10:43 PM

well here's what protection mouldings the dealers are selling here:

thanks for comments - I'll keep the thicker moustace for protection for now - until I'll find the clear transparent type that I like - the ones that are currently available are too small and are only for the corners really
- I'm thinking of putting those on the bodyline on the door handle where it sticks out most - another option is to put those thin strip chrome mouldings all along the side there (could spell a recipe for disaster though!)
apologies for the poor photoshop:

Zute · 07-27-2007, 10:46 PM

The front and rear looks good!

But not too sure about the sides?!

slvryaris · 07-28-2007, 01:59 AM

The doors look good. Not for sure about the others. I can see how the side can be of use, but I dont know about the other. It sure would keep ya from having door dings.

fu_im_from_texas · 07-28-2007, 03:02 AM

i like it

njyaris · 07-28-2007, 04:04 AM

the sides are cool .. you should def paint them the same color as your car .. but the front and backs are over board ..

naossoan · 07-29-2007, 06:56 AM

Oh my, please take them off!!!! You're embarrassing the poor little guy :(

Just do what I do, find the furthest, emptiest parking spaces and park there. It's worth the extra 15 seconds of walking. Trust me.
