WarpSpeed Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Sharp looking kits.. Still a vanilla Toyo though in body styling.. I like those Advanti rims but they don't come in 16's and the color I wanted and 17's won't fit my car with the fender liners in which I want to keep for aero effect..

Kwasaki Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Maybe I could buy the front panel skirt section and a GR2 badge instead of another car. I would have to change the mirrors. The rims look similar to Lenso Samurai I think they do 16" if I remember correctly, don't about colours, ours are gun grey and ali colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, give it a month and there will be decent quality ABS aftermarket GR2 bumper and fenders kits for less than 15K Baht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
culicine Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Couple of questions: Will they be widely available across dealerships to view? Is the black one a wrap? Looks like it.. Are the prices comparable to the vanilla models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the prices comparable to the vanilla models? They are only available through Toyota Mahanakorn, dealer map here: http://www.toyotametro.co.th/aboutus/aboutus_branch.html Prices are around 45K to 80K above normal, depending on the level of options. Not sure whether the black is a wrap or not, but the others are all painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarpSpeed Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) ^&^^Car looks wrapped for sure. Maybe I could buy the front panel skirt section and a GR2 badge instead of another car. I would have to change the mirrors. The rims look similar to Lenso Samurai I think they do 16" if I remember correctly, don't about colours, ours are gun grey and ali colour. Those maybe Lenso's, Advanti has styles very similar can't tell for sure.. I got my Advanti's at cost though so can't bitch too loudly ..

Yep, give it a month and there will be decent quality ABS aftermarket GR2 bumper and fenders kits for less than 15K Baht It has already got ABS, all I have to do is paint the calipers yellow . Jokes apart it's worth a thought, if it would fit onto a 2008 having just lost the front skirt spoiler in the floods around here, that front panel looks all in one piece.

Hehehe You know what, I've never once confused ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) with ABS (Antilock braking System), until your jest just now Amazing how your brain can completely switch modes given context..

Kwasaki Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Yep !! Thought there was only one ABS " Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene " so this is a new type of braking system then ? All these posh terminology for cars left me behind years ago when having to plug in computers to see what's wrong, drum brakes, tappets and push rods, carbs su and weber alike, distributor points etc, I'm obsolete apart from basic servicing and maintenance.

eTiMaGo Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 weird thing is, those bumpers were designed by an acquaintance (and of course been copied extensively), I wonder if he made some kind of deal with Toyota and a rant, when, oh when will we see some real special edition Yaris/Vios with a turbo, like they had the old Vios Turbo? bodykits and spoilers don't a fast car make...
