So, the black stripe would be what you would use to differentiate between your Yaris and other cars out there? I'd think having the only Yaris on the planet with wheel skirts would make it really easy to pick out from the crowd!

It'd be really interesting to see a Yaris with some wheel skirts. Would definitely be one-of-a-kind.

Also, mad props for that Ranger looking so good with 170k on it. Impressive!

Ha, I was picturing what would happen if a first gen Honda Insight made some sweet love to a first gen Yaris/Echo... You'd have a baby second gen Yaris with some Insight wheel skirts.

Hahaha Hopefully we dont run this guy off, but ya those hondas are gross so that should tell the OP one thing!!! I hope he knows everyone around here by now jokes around a lot! But maybe he will start picking up some things to do to his Yaris that help with MPG but still keep it looking good!

To the OP i really think you should stay clear of the Fleetwood style rears! I know there are a few guys on here getting crazy gas mileage with some Moons and a few other mods that help with gas mileage and your still keeping the Yaris fresh looking

Well, the good news is that it says he's offline right now, so I'm guessing he'll read through all of the posts and realize that we've got some jokers on here.

I don't think anything said could be construed to be negative. Guess I'm feeling snarky tonight? It's all good!

Ive been a member of the Ranger forum for some time now, no one can poke fun like them :[

The told me not to trust anything that fits in my pocket for transportation D:

I thought the flat salt discs were different from moons? Ive been looking for moons for my other car (escort) because they are rounder and look more spherical, whereas I thought the flats were well, flat? I'm wanting flat to paint the SkeleBunny FuuFuu image on them XD

Either way anyone know of where the members pictured purchased theirs from? I want to insure mine fit D:

As for the skirts, most of my driving is to school, about 120 miles round trip twice a week, speeds ranging from 45-65. I thought I saw a yaris with skirts on another forum? I plan on a grille block, but gotta check on the transcooler first. Ill be getting a scangauge soon too, but until I break it in at 1k miles I cant try to hypermile anyways. I've averaging 47-51mpg on the 25 mile trip each way to work and back, and about 36-42 with school, but I rode her hard off and on the school to ensure Im breaking her in when I have the open room to

Other than that, for my stripe, should I do it off to one side? I think straight down the middle would look too, musclecar-esque XD

Also JPM and anyone else who wants to see the truck, heres some photos of how it is now, before I tear down and go all out

as well as some older photos

Doesnt look bad on Prius. I plan on using them on my other two vehickles as well, not for aero, but for looks. Will make mini truck look longer and lower once I bag it, and the escort will be retromodded to look liek a 50s ambulance, so these are a must for it!

Glad that you have a sense of humor about your new Hot Wheels-sized car!

Now that I see some more pics of that Ranger... Wow, that thing's intense! Good job, you pulled off the poker/deck-of-cards them well!
