Talking eleanor edition yaris 3dr LB

ok guys.... after much debating on what this little Yarii is going to do with itself as far as a color scheme or even a theme.... since im already silver and black is easy to get things in i think id like to make a "Elanor Edition" yaris based on the one car ive consistantly wanted my entire life.... the real question comes to how will it be carried out.... first off id love to have a similar cover on the rear side windows.... probibly silver reflective tint.... im just wondering where i would even begin to getting this back peace fabricated. All in all give me ideas for ext mods and what tint options/rims. Comon guys i would love a TON of input on this since its the only combo that hasnt been beaten to death lately.... (stormtroopering and murdering has gotten old).

It hasn't been "beat to death" because it's a dumb idea;)

not really.... a classic black on silver with a taste muscle roots.... reborn in an import in ways.... but meh i guess everything good wouldnt be good without haters. its been a while since ive seen something FRESH come out with concern on theming. and if i can get my yarii even a tenth of the beauty of the Eleanor then im lucky. im not saying lets slap on badges with a different company... im asking if anyone would like to help with a concept thats different and id like to see if anyone could show mockups of pieces that would compliment this

Not so sure on everything else, but I thought of side window louvers immediately and I think they would look awesome if done right.

Probably would make the car look a lot older in age too, heh.

Yeah, that would require a decent amount of fabrication, but at least the fogs should be easy! Cut out two holes on the bottom grill and mount 'em. Even if you did that + black stripes I think it'd look nice. (I'm not so sure about a billet grill treatment as well, but that would help with the look if done right I would think.)

That would be one tall looking Lambo!

Eleanor is a Mustang only look.

"GT 50%" LOL. Nice little "Gone In 60 Minutes" theme...

BTW, are you looking to run the same rally lights in the front center?

I'm baffled at the number of you who aren't familiar with Eleanor or her theme...
