Where would one acquire said graffiti paint? :D

[grantewhite]

ur local graffiti and hiphop shop ? we got "beats and paint in canterbury" if not ebay ....

[Earpl]

plenty of big graffiti supply websites too

[Chris NTF]

montana and belton are the best brands for spray paint, usually around £5 a tin.

[jason.s]

Make sure it Montana spain and not germany.

[Coxy]

I'm gonna go for the graffiti paint. Hopefully you can hook me up Jason.

Wont be for a while yet, got the car to pay for first! :lol:

Oh and update wise there's not a lot.

Apex coilovers on
Whiteline ARB
OMP front strut
Buckets and harnesses in
Carpet, seats, interior trim removed. All that's in there now is dash, headliner, door cards and buckets.

[Coxy]

Well not a lot to update here really, just mulling over a few things atm.

Might be getting some Volks, but not 100% on that yet. Also looking at getting a C-One rear lip and brows. Got the rear trim and seats in! :ohmy: So will be lowering a bit more on the front, maybe tomorrow. Got a new DVD headunit for the grand sum of nout! :lol: Also thinking of painting the CF bonnet as it's fecked. Will only be painted thin so you can see the weave.

Also got angel eyes on.

Opinions?

Oh and a few pics from the meet last weekend.

[Yaris SR]

I like how your changing it, definally need some sort of wheels with a bit more "shout" factor!

Keep up the good work!

[Coxy]

Yep that's the plan. Got a clear fog coming on tuesday so the bumper lights are going clear. Just something else to change it and actually it is more JDM yo! 8)

Still contemplating the C-One front bumper but not sure I can justify the price!

Also looking at getting a carbon fuel door and roof panel (instead of glass). But may defy the point if I spray the bonnet. :fear:

[Coxy]

Oh and here are the rims I'm looking at. Just had a word back saying there may be a swap on with the BCs! :D

I know they are pretty plain but I've always liked 5 spokes on the Yaris, and think they are a little different. After seeing Chris' on the 8"s the design is fairly similar so I think it goes well. Offset seems to be 35 lol so that could be interesting!

Edit: actually they are these! :lol: Just waiting to hear back

[BLiTZ]

Interesting not sure about gold but would like to see them on, would look good with thunder grey centers

[Coxy]

Time will tell hopefully.

And atleast they are tyte yo! Rays 8)

[roderzz]

OOOOOOWWW MA. very tidy!!

[Rhys_e_Boy]

dude yes now there nice :thumbsup: i think they will look awesome on tg :yes:

[Coxy]

Hopefully this guy will hook me up! Gold should be a bit different too, trying to do stuff that hasn't been done before on the Yaris really. Not saying that hasn't but I doubt these rims have.

Will be taking her back to the home land if so, gotta mish to Kent lol!

[MattyV]

I think gold will look f*cking top mate :thumbsup: What price you looking at for them?

[Coxy]

Just realised how similar to JSPLs they are! :fight: Oh well I do think JSPLs look good, just not keen on the lip. Loved them on yours and fishers last week. The spoke design is slightly different where they connect to the lip and they are deep centred too so not too similar.

Just found out they are actually pretty fecked so need a refurb. Which means one thing... more fecking colour choices! :lol: What to do, what to do?!?!? Good news though the guy seems pretty interested.

[MattyV]

TBH not sure i'd have them another colour...I'd seriously fancy keeping them gold.

Yeah they are sort of similar to jspl's but there are a fair few differences. The actual spokes looks thicker as well.

[Coxy]

Yeah the more I look the more different they look but still a similar design to the untrained eye.

They are really corroded like OEM TS wheels so will need a refurb but not sure how close I could get a colour match. I'd ditch the polished rim whilst I was there too.

[Rhys_e_Boy]

gold and keep the chrome lip, someone may do you a photoshop
but other wise gunmetal or black :thumbsup:

[Coxy]

Bored of black/dark now. Really need a change.

I dislike chrome lips very very very very very very very much. I can stand them on other people cars but couldnt look at them everyday.

[Rhys_e_Boy]

well dont get them in gold then it will be far to much bling bling with out the lip not done in a different colour.
go for something crazy like takata green , floro yellow

[Coxy]

See black with a fluro lip has tempted me but they look excellent in gold. Polished lip is the only "3rd colour" you can get away with though reall. :(
