The quality of this video was top notch and honestly something I'd expect to see in a channel with over 100k subs. No idea why TH-cam never reccomended this channel to me as I love detailing and love GR Yaris, I got lucky and found it when scrolling ages down after I searched GR Yaris
Yeah the boys only produce the best work and that was the goal with the roof for the flattest finish possible given how wavy the roof was from factory. That was the idea with the rear bar something different that no one has done yet and looking like an OEM finish. Ekano racing have done something similar to theirs but still slightly different.
Fantastic what those guys did to that roof. I've just acquired a GR Yaris and I'm sifting through many ideas and mods. Incidentally, mine is a white one also, so my roof is a must at some point. Cheers from the UK 🏴 🇬🇧
Another great video boys! I'm sure I not alone in wondering what the final cost was (for someone driving in off the street). 30 hours of work sounds like it could be a little pricey? I'm not saying its not worth it but, If I was considering this route, I'd want it done properly or not at all.
Nice one guys! I have been looking into doing this myself, but havent found any info on the roof-mouldings yet, but this was good info. I know there is a clip at the front - Could you re-use the roof mouldings, or did you have to order new ones?
Thanks Mate! Yeah so remove the moulds starting from the rear as there’s no clip there just tape and as you get to the front you’ll move up and slide forward towards the car to release clip. You can re-use the original moulds but you’ll have to spend a good hour to remove old tape and re-tape and the problem is unless you remove the moulds without bending even slightly + installing you’ll eventually have moulds that are wavy and start lifting over time. Have seen numerous of moulds that have been Re used and go wavy over time. I got new roof mould from Toyota for $155 AUD. Relatively cheap considering
@@smoothasbrothers Okay! Yeah definitely sounds like new mould's are the way to go - Another question if you dont mind. How do you go about removing the antenna, just pop out the inner-roof from the trunk, and pop the antenna out? Since I am most likely putting PPF on, I need it removed
@@Doggepp we didn’t remove the antenna our selves we had the boys do it when they prepped it all but from what they told us, there’s 3 clips at back of roof lining they are removed followed by the C pillar plastics need to be popped out, this will give you enough room to get your hand in without creasing the roof lining to remove the 10mm bolt that holds the antenna in.
Well, more to add to the list once my Gen2 GRY arrives😁
Looks absolute amazing!
That roof looks absolutely brilliant.
It really turned out amazing and just highlights how great of a car these are and the effort Toyota put into them!
Very tastefully improvements boys , 👍🇦🇺❤️
Thanks legend!

Thanks Jackson appreciate it! We hope to deliver more content this good more often 🙏🏻
Roof is superbly done. But! Rear vents painted look awesome and never seen it finished like this!

Wow. Amazing work guys. The roof looks so nice. Well done!
Would consider driving down from Brissy to get it done…
Thanks mate!
Definitely speak to the boys at Mesiti bodyworks if you’re ever keen!
What a fantastic next-level effort lads. I wish that panel shop was based on the Gold Coast. Amazing attention to detail. Well done.
Much appreciated Darren!
Yep Mesiti bodyworks is just that top tier workmanship, finishes and all round top blokes!

Very tasteful rear vents ! Best yet . And that roof does look great
Thanks Laurie!
Great quality and detail!
Thank you! Cheers!
Never mind the bumper mods, how good does that little minx look *without* a rear bumper?
Ahaha I thought the exact same thing!

Someone off the street for the roof and bar work exactly like this would be floating around the $3500 area

Thanks Jay!

dream car man..
Damn whose that guy fitting up the Torana 😏

Was in two minds about those rear vents. But they suit it hard. Luke and josh = best in the business
Always a pleasure working with you boys

Which front lip is mounted on this GR Yaris?
Flow designs front splitter
Still rocking the X-force exhaust? or did you change it up
Yep still got it ! Super happy with it.
@@smoothasbrothers I ended up getting one too! Did you have any issues with the crappy OEM exhaust hangers causing knocking?
@@tharinduherath6595 yep the OEM exhaust rubbers soft as anything.
Changes over to stiffer ones fixed my
Problems
@@smoothasbrotherscan you please let me know the item code for the stiffer mounts you used and how many do you need ? Thanks
@@alyxander8182 still got the exhaust 👌🏻
They were off a late model wrx from memory like a 2012 I believe
Rooflooked better before removing film. Looks like a cheap kitchen worktop without it
Each to their own. That’s the beauty of modifying cars it’s to your own taste
