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

[Yogi896]

String Theory spacers fitted.

 

[bergergr]

Traded my non cp in for a cp and fitted my new CAE shifter

It was worth it

 

[Sturesmyg]

Washed my baby and was supposed to change to winter shoes, but ultimately failed due to some fitment issues. Clean though.

So, if I were in possession of these signatures at this point.... Remove, go to the painter and clear coat over it. After that it's forever.

I've finally come around to this way of thinking, I'm going to leave them on until summer (in New Zealand it is just starting) and then on one really hot day, with trim removal tools and a hair drier, gently peel it back off and have it clear coated. I was partly reluctant to clear it because I only just glued it back on and it wont be easy to remove again.

For me the physical monetary value is irrelevant. Its more about a memory of the event for me personally.

Dropped mine off for it’s 18k service and spotted a white car ready for collection today by it’s lucky owner.

Mind sharing the dealership?

Hedge End.

They also had a black car hidden away with the wrappers on which was suggested by staff that it’s been there for quite some time.

Ordered Toms wing, not my first choice but got tired of searching/trying to make own.

Looks beautiful in alu! Stands out as it should. And also cheaper than the black option.

Nice to see an alternative to Royal.

While I'd love to have the steering wheel re-trimmed to alcantara, I don't particularly fancy taking the wheel out myself. And the only other option Royal offer is to swap my wheel with one from their "stock", whatever that means. At least one customer of theirs wasn't particularly happy with the replacement steering wheel he got, so I won't be going down that route.

I may consider a trip to Cornwall, though, if Control Customs are more flexible.

Even for a complete idiot like me it was a relatively simple job. I followed this video, word for word (minus adding the spacer). I marked the spline and the wheel with a permanent marker so that it went back in the same place. Control Customs were very easy to deal with and replied to my emails quickly. There was 2-3 others getting their wheels re trimmed off the GR Yaris WhatsApp group, so they took an extra 10% off the price. With postage, £200.

Discovered the grill was broken with an accompanying dent and damage to the intercooler fins

 

[MarkoS]

Always feels bad when gotta say: "Can't recommend this enough"
8000km, didn't see a single "fin" on the IC or water cooler bent and OEM grille safe behind it.

I hit a small bird and luckily it didn’t break the grille but bent a few fins

It was pretty grim retrieving it’s body poor bugger!

I straightened the fins out with a couple of feeler gauges and small flat screwdrivers and you wouldn’t notice now

I’m just going to wait until the grille gets knackered and replace it I wouldn’t bother if the damage is small as it will happen again anyway

Ah I was thinking about the different tips too.
I am not so much a fan of carbon on the gry. I see it more pure bare bone rally car. That's my problem with the carbon eventuri as well. Carbon tips and parts do fit well with more prestigious track sports cars like porsche gt and so on. But if it's part of the concept, I cam imagine it will fit well. Like with the other HKS carbon parts.

I think I'd take the simple silver ones.

 

[MarkoS]

You are right, imo GRY is a rally car, but since it already got carbon pattern roof vinyl, I got matte carbon AP arch guards, so thought these would fit nicer. Shame they are gloss, would prefer matte.
And (could be wrong) thought carbon tips could keep more heat off plastic "diffusor".
