Thanks!

To my knowledge it is $388 for the hood and bumper. It was on one of the display model and I saw the sticker price included $388 for the 3M bra and when I examined the model I saw that the 3M covered the hood and bumper as well. Iám not too sure if it covers the 2 side mirrors, but Iám going to check today when I meet with the salesguy to choose my accessories. I will inform you as soon as I get the information.

The 3M Clear Hood Film is worth every penny. It's never yellowed on me, can also be waxed with the rest of the car...

I had it on both my Echo Hatchbacks, and I am having it put on my Yaris RS as well...

I've always had it directly installed through a 3M Trimline installer for less than Toyota charges (around 200 bux)....

The plastic hood deflectors, in my experience cause as much damage as they are meant to prevent, end up rubbing the hood, and creating corrosion where the clips attach..

Cheers

So you paid $200 to have the hood and front bumper done? That's a steal! I should go to 3m trimline!

hoahmaru · 03-21-2006, 12:03 AM

Hey everyone, My Yaris arrived today and I went to get the accessroies all picked out. I will be picking the car up on this coming Wednesday night. I can't wait to pick it up.

Celica Girl,
I talked to the salesguy and he said the 3M bra only covers the hood and the sides mirrors and not the front bumper. The hood and side mirror 3M will cost $388 + GST, and if you want to do the bumper as well it will cost an extra $450 + GST. Total for hood + side mirrors + ftont bumper = $838 + GST (CAN).

I ended up not getting the 3M bra because my initial thought was that the
3M bra covered the hood and front bumper for $388 + GST, but it only covers the hood. I thought that was kind of a rip off because the Yaris hood is very small compare to other cars, the hood is about 2 times smaller than the hood. So I thought it wasn't worth the money getting the 3M done at Toyota. I will try to find an aftermarket 3M bra. Toyota's accessories is too expensive in my opinion.

The salesguy also told me that the rally style spoiler cannot be added on to the RS Yaris because they already have a spoiler in place and if you removed the old spoiler there will be two holes that will not fit the rally style spoiler holes. So you will end up having 4 holes in your Yaris. Maybe that is why the rally style spoiler is not an option accessories for the RS Yaris and only for the LE or CE Yaris. But he also said that it hasn't been done yet at Country Hills Toyota so they are not absolutly sure. He also said the Toyota is not willing to exchange the Standard spoiler for the rally style spoiler, you would have to purchase them separately, which would mean that I would have an extra spoiler lying around collecting dust.

The only accessories I got from Toyota is tinited windows, which was also very expensive ($399 CAN), the salesguy gave it to me for $350, not too big of a difference. I also got the exhaust tip for full price.

Echo hrs,
Can you tell me which company you will be getting your 3M bra from and if they have a store in Calgary because I would definitely do the 3M for $200. Thanx.

I ended up pretty disappointed with the extra accessories, but I'am happy that I'am getting my Yaris in two days.

hoahmaru · 03-21-2006, 12:49 AM

Oh yea, I will also be posting pics on the "Member's Ride" and "Official Polar White" threads as soon as the weather gets nice in Calgary so that I can take some pictures, maybe this weekend, I hope.

cool... grats on getting your ride!

Mad Munchkin · 03-21-2006, 08:39 AM

Congrats hoahmaru!!! Too bad about your accessories but glad you're only a day away from driving your car!

celica girl · 03-21-2006, 09:40 AM

Congrats on getting your ride so soon!!! I can't wait to see pictures!

The company that hrs is talking about is 3M Trimline. You can look them up on www.superpages.ca.

That sucks about your accessories. If you haven't paid for your tint already I would also shop around. It shouldn't cost $350 to do 3 windows. Check out places like Icon Tint, Shadow Tint and I believe that 3M Trimline also does tinting... Maybe you can get a deal for both the windows and 3m bra.

I think it might be too late for the tinted windows, their probably done putting it on already. The tinted windows from toyota comes with their 5 year warranty I think, so that should be ok. But thanx for the suggestions, I will look into the 3M trimline company for sure because I really want the 3M bra, but not at over $800 for the whole set. Are you still planning on getting the 3M done at toyota? What color did you order for you Yaris?

NickNickNick · 03-21-2006, 05:01 PM

I had my windows tinted for free as part of my package...incredibly awesome thing to have, but 350$ is outrageous.

foober · 03-21-2006, 06:41 PM

whats fun reading about the canadian yaris owners is they're actually getting them. LUcky ducks.

ange008 · 03-22-2006, 11:42 AM

I am so loving my new Yaris. The red is so nice, even though it was my second choice colour it probably should have been my first choice. Life is GOOD!

celica girl · 03-22-2006, 02:40 PM

I ordered a Copper Orange Mica Yaris. I definitely won't be paying $800+ for the 3M bra... that's outrageous!

No doubt!

I also said NO to the Toyota "protection package' - did anyone order it? The one where they stain'seal your upholstery and spray the underside with some spaceage soundproofing material, etc, etc. I thought the fact that every item in the package was 388.00 was a little too coincidental AND since it would have been almost 10% of the car price, I decided not to bother.

swng · 03-22-2006, 06:31 PM

I did not buy that package either. I used the money saved to buy the immobilizer, the auto dim rear view mirror with compass and the centre arm rest.
