aliexpress cheap body modifications
I want to make my 2009 yaris edge 2 door a little sportier.
I was thinking of adding in a front lip spoiler, side skirts, etc. eg, https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesa...l_tranpro_desc https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001107829767.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...AU%21175445888 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...AU%21175445888 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000...773540334558_0 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...AU%21175445888 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...24691950_1&s=p https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...d=WwgH9PNRIGOr https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...AU%21175445888 Has anyone gone the budget route? NOT MY CAR, but looks the same https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/det...13893396/?Cr=3 Last edited by KermitAUS; 05-03-2023 at 10:58 AM. |

fwiw most of the ali stuff is always knock off..and most of it sold on ebay
so ill toss this in do not expect anything to just bolt on and not need some fixing/adjusting, secondly most plastic these days is "dirty" plastic and will need to be propperly prepped for paint to actualy stick and not just look like its sticking ..or worse fish-eyed to hell with that said tho some of the pieces are genuinly nice, other need a ton of work to look nice but yes ive gone the budget route but im also skilled enough to fix, paint match and prep everything |

Most of this is rubber or a fake carbon fibre look.

imo semi gloss black looks best specificly due to it matching the pillar vynle, mini molded mud flaps and the other trim pieces in front of the tires as well as the grill and mirrors if you dont have the painted ones...and while i have the painted covers ready..i feel the raw black plastic mirrors work better due to the other black bits on the body
it "blends" better |
