what do yall think? - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

frownonfun · 09-12-2009, 01:24 AM

just put the "toyota" at the bottom of the hood straight across. and different font to go with style of your side stripes which i'm loving.

and just a quick aside but does anyone know how to write toyota in japanese? or does it even translate like that? sorry if that's a dumb question i was just kinda wanting some japanese on my car and couldn't think of anything better.

+1 for the windshield.

I think that would make the most sense, it looks kind of out of place on the hood, like there wasn't much thought about the placement, I also like the idea of the zdea of it wrapping from the hood over to the side, that could make things a little more interesting.

:D

It's a good idea to make the car stand out a bit more... Might just need to be adjusted a little. Very Kool!

+1 for being positive! lol. that was actually my goal with this. i personally love the way it looks and it does kinda set it apart from the rest.

Looks a little ricey at that angle, plus it seems to defeat the purpose of the car being all black IMO

A very smaller one on the center of the hod down by the bumper might look better, kinda like mine (see garage)

asian style letters never work on a car. ever
im also not a big fan of graphics on a car that has no extensive modification

but thats just my opinion. to each their own

not trying to be a debbie downer at all. just from my experience its never looked good on any car ive seen it on no matter where it is placed

props for trying it out though

I have to agree whith that.

While I might not like that graphic on the hood, it is not my car and it's only my opinion.

Having said that, I never did like are sort of graphic on a hood (except for an apropriate racing stripe) as it always looks oui of place, IMHO.

your car kind of looks like that mario bullet in your signature. how about putting on a couple of eyes and arms to your lb.

st0rmfreak · 09-12-2009, 04:09 AM

@st0rmfreak: You have to do this!!! I'll even give you a discount on some eyelids to close the deal.

st0rmfreak · 09-12-2009, 04:25 AM

^its actually a lot darker than it looks. it has a slight reflectiveness to it and the sun caught it a little. it kinda catches your eye when you pass by it.
