Thanks for the feedback guys.
Not to keen on the look but the amount of crap that gets kicked up from the road is ridiculous - especially on wet roads I get a lot of "oily soot" on the doors. Guess I'll just apply a good layer of wax. |

Don't mean to put you out. Go with what you need, remember the mudflats clip on to the holes provided and can be easily removed.

Current Mods:
Sony Ericsson Bluetooth kit (had Toyota install it prior to delivery) Safety Tint (also Toyota) Planned Mods: Yokohama S-Drive tyres (stock size on stock rims once the current tyres are dead) for more confidence in the wet. EBC/similar performance brake pads and drilled front discs. Mudflaps (factory style not Cusco rally ) Better radio possibly with Satnav - but GPS's annoy me - will wait for the right one. Possibly some subtle vinyl wrapping to personalise the look slightly. Strut bar TRD Oil filter TRD Soundchanger (anybody know where I can get the three pack in ZA?) |

Check the radio upgrade thread for the right one. TomTom with HD Traffic FTW - for me GPS isn't about finding my destination anymore, it's about getting there while avoiding traffic.

I used to do about 150-200km a day for business and if you are in Sunninghill/Rivonia/Woodmead - there is no skipping traffic! All about timing. But I will say I'm slowly beginning to hate the stock Toyota radio. |

Slowly? I had it for a week then it had to go. It's an utter POS.

LOL! Neither of my old Mini's have radio's so it's not that bad for me, switch off the music and focus on the noise. If the backlight was red I figure I may have been able to tolerate it on a near permanent basis... But my interior looks like a Christmas tree, Blue BT kit, green radio and red guages!

Do you also have the open holes where the mudflaps would screw to?

I saw it on the options list, slightly pointless in my opinion for the price as it will only be seen at fill-ups really.
I want these: http://cdn.mkimg.carview.co.jp/minka...t=f54a52ae011b It kinda does something at least! |
