The roof spoiler is "late"

Great color!

Nice car but thats obvious.............enjoy!

Very nice.

I had changed mine to black before you posted the pictures, ohwell.
What grade tint do you have as I would like to do that over here if its legal.

Also wheres the chrome mirrors, they told me their standard in the IQ3 and I cant change them.

In France we don't have chrome mirrors.

Tint is the highest authorized in france, it's intermediary "tint", we decided to use the samr tint level even on "little windows" to make the back of the car a little darker. I can't tell you what's the law about tint in your country...

The company that did this tint (with a 10 years guaranty) is www.crea-film.com.

Where did you get that hand brake lever from? It looks really nice.

Over here we have it in IQ3 or in a special design pack.

In UK you can buy it at toyota's :

Leather Handbrake Lever
PZ49B-I0170-00
£113.13

Check the part number before ordering...

It's nice but the shift knob low protection isn't in leather but in plastic or something... which isn't very nice.

Yikes, that's a lot to spend on a handbrake lever! Looks nice, though.

First changes :

- usb super talent pico c to listen to salsa, 8Go.

thought the iq3 didnt have rear disk brakes?

In France we have disk brakes on all IQ because it goes with VSC+

This is why my IQ3 is currently being repared by toyota :

I wasn't here when it happened 1 month ago, some witnesses left me the truck identification number and on e left her phone number to help me with my insurance company...

She told me that there was a truck stopped in the middle of the street to deliver some client. It was parked next to my IQ and tryed to make some place to free the way for other cars... taking my mirror with him !!!

I hope I'll get it back quickly.

While they have my car I asked them to change the motor oil ("vidange" in french) and to make sure this time the roof spoiler is well fixed.

Not good news, loving the look of your iQ (before the smash!) - can't think why I like it so much???


Oh yeah, it's kinda like mine

Yes .... one French with iQ !

Très sympa au passage la couleur.

that iq is a luvly colur,
shame about the wing mirror but luckely someone was there to catch the sneeky beggers out.

The IQ is repaired.

I am now wondering if I buy TTE spring in UK and make them being installed in France (have to check for the price with delivery and fitting). In cas of any problem with "suspension" warranty won't apply...

Or if I make them bought and fitted by a toyota dealer (480€ all included) that didn't found out that they are not homologated for france and keep my guarantee thanks to the toyota dealer's invoice...
