When I first picked her up last year: Had her tinted and weathertech window visors put on.


Put in her HIDs from DDM Tuning! 35w. 8k.



Put her mudguards and "Vitz" emblem on


Fog lights!


Painted the fog light lenses yellow, and wired a 12" kicker with a bass controller. Stock HU, just used a line out converter.


Lowered her on Tein S Tech springs, and TRD Sportivo shocks. Also picked up a set of 15x7 +41 Enkei RPF1s! 195/55/15. Sold the wheels, and the spring/shock combo and picked up Megan racing coilovers and wider wheels.



Installed a 22mm Whiteline Rear Sway Bar. Sold this exhaust. Hope to pick up another one soon.


Changed front Toyota emblem to the "Netz" emblem. Also added the tow hook license plate.

looks weird but also looks very nice and clean!

[SheaMoose]

I feel like I've seen this car before.
I really like how it sounds.

Haha thanks man. I just thought it'd be cool to try and build a small car, you know? Can't complain with the gas mileage either I pretty much never see these things being fixed up so that was a plus in my book as well!

[P78]

that's a good start

altho i feel like you might get a better result with smaller tires and 16" wheels

Maybe you have man! And thank you! I'm really happy with it

Thanks man! I definitely agree with you on that though. I will be ordering my coilovers within the next few days. Then after that I'll be looking into some 16x8 wheels. I really like mesh wheels on this body style.

16" rpf1's?

they suit your car imo

and by the looks of this, you can even go 17"

Yes 16" RPF1s would look better for sure. I'm just aiming to go for a mesh style with lip. Haha. 16" would probably be as big as I would go. Although a lot of people in Thailand and Indonesia love rockin the 17s. The way they stance the Vitz out there is pretty crazy.

^^ wow

[TerenceJCruz]

^^ wow

Haha yeah man they do some nice work out there. And of course, they get the nicer bumpers and front lips stock on their cars haha.

[rapide]

[TerenceJCruz]

hi bro! nice seeing you again lol

What's up man! Glad to see you on another forum haha. Coils will be arriving anytime now Lagged on it for a little bit so I could pay off some credit cards.. Haha. But the next pic I post on here will be with them be on!

[TerenceJCruz]

*Small update*
Car is currently on steelies. Sold the RPF1s. Coils will be arriving any day now. Camber bolts have arrived already. Will be going with 16x8 or 16x9 mesh wheels soon as well! How she's sitting now until the coils are in: (Had some people in the back in the first pic hahaha)

[TerenceJCruz]

Got the coils installed! How she is sitting right now. Cut a lot of the fender liner off to minimize rubbing. I ran into a couple problems during the install..

- VSC and ABS lights stay on now.
- Rear shocks don't feel secure. Hear the shocks knocking/bouncing.
