Redyaris Has Left The Building

[redyaris]

Got the HID halo projectors installed. On to the rims...

I NEVER want to have to remove the Eclipse bumper cover AGAIN. What a freaking PITA! 2 hidden bolts UNDERNEATH The two front fenders in the wheelwell. Took 2 long extensions on my wrench to get to them.

I could have had 10 Yaris front bumpers removed in the time it took for this one.

BTW, this car's 4-cylinder hauls ass, with slightly decreased fuel econ than with my liftback. Wish my Yaris had been as fast....

Im also evaluating front grille options...Grillcraft makes a nice set for the upper and lower areas. Hate that gaping open hole beneath the front bumper, I thought the car was missing a trim piece.

Paint it a different color, drop it, get new wheels, and get a hardtop, then you're in business. hehe

Engine 4-Cyl. 2.4 Liter
Horsepower 162 @ 6000 RPM
Torque 162 @ 4000 RPM
Curb Weight 3477 lbs.

That's like 50ish HP more than the yaris, but over 1000lbs heavier. can't be THAT much quicker, can it?
