GR Yaris What did you do to your GR Yaris today?

Re-installing my dash panel after getting it autographed by Kalle Rovanpera, Elfyn Evans, Sebastien Ogier, Takamoto Katsuta and Jari Matti Latvalla! - On the weekend Kalle won his first world championship no less!
Good for at least an extra 10bhp!

I'll ceramic coat it (several times) to coat it. clear coat isnt flexible enough

Careful……as certain Ceramic coatings contain various solvents which will remove the Marker ( a sharpie) especially on a gloss surface that hasn’t been Key’d.
Remember to test first on something else first if you still have the same pen that was used.
PPF preferred choice but again test first as some films require the application solution mix to contain alcohol solvents

Good luck
 
Yes,.. As above.

Certain coatings will remove them signitures in one wipe. 😬
 
I have a touch up stick. I got it off ebay and it is for gloss wheel finishes.

At this rate it's going to run out.
 
There are plenty on eBay:

The one I bought was:
1665051691398.webp

It seems to do the job and hides scratches enough for it not to bother you. I originally bought it for our Cooper S which we kerbed very badly on the day of delivery :(
 
Collected mine from Tom at All That Gleams at 8am this morning after full ceramics, wheel protection and a PPF strip on the boot entry to protect against dog paws when our Lab jumps in the back. Looks fabulous.

Oh yeah I know what you mean, other companies have used a really glossy, greasy, inferior product in the past but I'm not sure what my detailer uses but it does look 10x better as a matt finish I agree! :) (y)
All their main products are "GYEON" I know that much! 😅 ha! 😁
Look Nick up: www.detailmycar.co.uk :cool: (y)

Completed resonator delete on stock exhaust system (with HJS cat), result from outside:


Cold start is almost obnoxious, HJS is proven performance and 100% legal, res delete adds character/fun but zero drone and cheap as chips.

Good option with very low cost. Thanks for sharing.

I'd stick to a full exhaust change though. I prefer reversible bolt on mods and would not feel good to cut the stock part.

I have another stock one which I basically got for free 👌
Makes one more courageous in trying something 'new'...
 
Gives this car the noise it desperately needs! Well done! 😁👌
