Beathrush alluminum underpanel / skid plate

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Beatr...ht_2506wt_1440

According to this linke it should work for all yaris even sedan as long as its a 06-08. I remember seeing a post back before the hack of someone trying to get it to fit on the US model yaris but wouldnt fit exactly.

Unless they have redesigned a US model version....

Someone really has to custom design one. One maybe out of plastic and one out of aluminum for a much more affordable cost than near 200 most i would pay is 100

It's not likely it'll fit a sedan: the hatchback and sedan have two different bumper designs. The bolts at the bottom would doubtfully line up. You could drill new holes in the bottom of your bumper, but that's all I can think of.
That's a really good deal...I might think seriously about it...

Hmm. I think my shop has a old skid plate laying around somewhere. I may try to use that first since its easier to cut. And the the basic layout and design first and then trace it on top of the aluminum sheet with a permenant marker and make the cuts. And taking my tiny dremel cutting tool and a handy drill and making my own custom one. Then once its done and perfected i can have a template for other members.

I just realized why I haven't considered one yet. You have to remove it every time you change your damn oil

I tried to get it to fit. No luck on my end. Too much custom work. I sold it locally to a hatch owner. I did however make a template of it. I just need to get back out in the garage and make a template for the sedan bumper and custom cut one. If it ever warms up I will start back on it. The mounting points on the rest of the plate did seem to line up though.

As far as oil changes....I plan to cut out a hole just big enough to get a wrench on the drain plug and filter.
