Is there a particular type of body kit you're looking for? There a few websites that you can purchase body kits for a Yaris. Amazon.com has available body kits and so does autodirectsave.com both are good places to check out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/57.gif)

hmm, have you considered the other costs associated with putting on a bodykit? labor usually ends up more than what you thought because most of the time the kit needs cutting, measuring, more cutting...to fit correctly. then there's the cost of painting it. Maaco can paint your entire car for $300, but would you want this on a brand new car? especially when the factory paint is brand new.

a good paint job costs $3,000 - $5,000. if you only paint the bodykit parts, they may not match perfectly...and usually fade more or less depending on the quality of paint and curing. after a few years (or less) there will usually be noticeable fading differences.

you'll ending up spending lots of money to make a car look faster, but would actually slow it down due to the extra weight that most bodykits add on. in a small, econobox motor, this would be a significant decrease in performance.

why not sell the Yaris and get something like a Celica that's already got the agressive look and good power already.

I'm going to agree with Skunk, the additional weight is going to be an issue on a Yaris. The Celica looks good and is a great ride. I'd save the money and upgrade!
