My Ideas Your Thoughts

SO here's what I'm thinking of doing. Taking off the Vitz(even though I love it) on the back, leaving the back completely debadged then up front swicthin the Netz badge back to the Toyota symbol and possibly taking off the eyelids. To give it a sleeper or a prototype look. So any ideas are welcomed

I'm split on that idea... I like the debadging part, but I must oppose to the eyelids part.

Just thinking the same. It's basically the same I've done with mine (just took off the "Toyota" and "Yaris" signs).

ok here's one I'm kinda caught in between two color themes now either: Blue/Silver(kinda like now) or Blue/Satin black(to go with the eyelids). I want it to be clean but not over done that much.

Will you still have the Toyota symbol on the back? If you don't, you'll have two small guide holes in the trunk to deal with.

Bottom line its your car. You should do what you want to it. I like the blank back idea tho.

(subtle)(clean)>(overdone)

any day! I say take the eyelids off and the vitz, but leave the netz emblems. that will result in a very clean look, but only the choice few informed will know your car is modded. sofresh.

just an idea

I took the Vitz(as it fell apart) off already but I'm keepin 'lids just to the plain and simple reason that there's like NO modded Yarii 'round here, hence why I need to be a "pacesetter" or somebody to show just what CAN be done to a Yarii. That's also why I LOVE to show it in car shows, may not win a big prize but I try to every year to change it up a lil
