    He knows it's nothing special and he doesn't need it but he loves his car and like to be excessive.

    Already have a set of wheels for it that my brother took off of his car so should look a bit better soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,830 ✭✭✭✭MuppetCheck


    The right wheels and a bit of colour coding and that will look well!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,730 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Washing it with a bucket and a hose? :p

    I'll either be using my brothers old ones, which probably won't look that great as they're gold + silver or taking off the hubs and just roll with the Steels until I can source a set of OEM alloys. Another small thing I want to do is get the wheel wrapped with leather or find an OEM wheel.

    Will look at color coding everything when I get a job.

    Also, does anyone know the easiest way to get an Aux input on a Yaris as mine has a Tape Deck and the radio seems to not want to work.

    Also the dreaded sponge :P . It was the easiest way to get most of the gunk off and I not going to get bothered about Swirl marks until I get a nicer car.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,718 ✭✭✭Hal1


    All topped off with a mayo glaze :pac:.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,730 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    I'd say the the gold and silver will looks well, I've seen the combination on loads if cars.

    As for the music issue, new stereo is probably the job.
    You could also get one of those tape-1/4 inch jack yokes.

    I hope to jaysus that was a manual jet wash and not a drive in wash :O. I'll give you the benifit of the doubt from reading your posts on here and the attention to detail given to this car. I was half expecting a mobile flood light to highlight the beeding :p.

    Don't worry, manual wash! Haven't bothered drying the car in the last few months, get very little hard water spots with so little sun. 30 second rinse with the hose, 5 minute wipe down with shampoo and a minute or two rinse.

    I do it every Friday or Saturday so makes it quick n easy. Wax works wonders too.

    The red one as she stands, still needs a bit of work
