i want it all, but figured i might be able to afford the front and back alone.

frownonfun · 04-11-2009, 07:40 PM

for those that PM'ed about weight and shipping costs im sorry i didn't make it out to UPS or anything today. spent all day putting in new struts and lowering springs. bigger pain in the ass than i thought it would be.

for reference, though, to ship the full kit to me w/ splitter it was about $80.

frownonfun · 04-11-2009, 07:45 PM

ok i looked at the packing slip, duh, and the weight is 37lbs. so i guess if you are wondering about cost of shipment there you go.

mrbond · 04-11-2009, 07:52 PM

^ nice, what kind of springs and struts did you put in?

frownonfun · 04-11-2009, 09:46 PM

tokico shocks and tanabe df210. it ended up hailing on me while i was putting on the back ones but i'm stubborn and finished them anyway.

best before shot i have...

witness the carnage just after i finished the front...

and after...

The 15's aren't bad, though. The weight alone is something that attracted me to them. They'll look way better once the springs settle in a month or so. Looking good!

frownonfun · 04-11-2009, 09:57 PM

yeah they are super light. not so much as those ssr's but ah well. beggars can't be too choosy. still if i had gotten the 16" i'd also have center caps. though i'm getting used to how it looks sans center cap now.

i think i've gone and hijacked my own thread.

dallas · 04-11-2009, 10:28 PM

Drop looks great , hows the ride with the DF and Tokico combo must be awesome

The 16 's move the revolving mass out further from the hub to rob more hp, on a Yaris you will be happy with a 15 inch rim. If you get a chance to drive a Yaris with a 17 inch rim and then back to a 15 it feels like you got 10 hp back.
On the body kit, if the Canadian dollar was on par I would buy the kit today. Economist say the dollar will be on par this summer so if you still have the kit then I'm in LOL

it's noticeably bumpier that's for sure. but i'm sure i won't notice it so much after a while. anyway it's a lot of fun turning. and looks way better.

andruboz · 04-14-2009, 12:33 AM

where in texas are you? I am between Austin and San Antonio.

some doucheberry just rubbed his 5th wheel up against my
back bumper. i didn't worry cause he had USAA then i called them this morn and they said- yes he is a customer but no he doesn't insure his 5th wheel camper or the pickup he was driving with USAA- so yer foooked.

I'm looking at $300 for a used one from lkq auto salvage- and they always say something is grade A even when its hammered.

or $420 for the ford dealer to fill in the scratches and repaint my old bumper.

So a new one for $225 would be a much better deal.

MadMax · 04-14-2009, 09:48 AM

I think he said he was in Midland, so about 360 miles from San Antonio...

And now that the weather is nice, we need a Central Texas meet-up in Gruene!

Cheers! M2

andruboz · 04-14-2009, 06:02 PM

whats a 720 mile saturday road trip? nothin but a thang.

at3GG · 04-14-2009, 06:50 PM

this kit + DF210's+one speedbump= death to kit ..which sucks this looks nice.

toyo · 04-14-2009, 09:03 PM

frownonfun · 04-14-2009, 11:00 PM

Not really. I run DF210's and the Kaminari lip kit with the splitter, I hardly ever scrape. It's also built very flexible at the base, just in case.
