I have to say, I think I like the grille on the sedan better. They shoulda' put that on the hatch, then it would've been really sporty. However, I think the sedan grille was swiped from Mazda.

Both are good. To me, the HB seems to have more character but the sedan is more suitable to be a family car (of course it is suitable for other purposes too).

The Yaris and Vitz are the same car. It's not like I'm putting a GT-R emblem on the car.

I agree, same as the JDM croud putting red badges on their cars, or ordering JDM headlights, etc etc. A mod is a mod is a mod.

well the japanese vitz only comes as a 5-door, so i guess technically, an american 3-door can't ever be a vitz

I'm part of this "JDM Crowd" but don't expect to see a huge wing and neons on my car. I do plan on doing an entire Vitz conversion however. Floormats, Doorsills, Badging, Interior Bits, the works. Say what you will, but it's what I like to do. (^_^)

The last Vitz was available as a 3-Door in Japan, not so for the new model?

I agree, keep the vitz badge and pull the toyota and yaris badges, it should be apparent what it is.
