I might be getting a set of these since I don't ever use my keys in my doors.

I'm going to try to meet up with them to do a test fit. Might install a trunk popper and see about getting a keyhole cover for the trunk.

That's pretty cool. Too bad my door handle stick out. No shaved door appearance for me.

i might get them after i get my remote keyless entry

I'd rather pay the extra money and just shave the door handles altogether. and have it done when i repaint my car the new two tone. from the door handle line to the top will be Blue Pearl and from the door handle line down it will be cream pearl with a yellow gold tint hue(as seen on the caddilac called tri-gold yellow). yes it will cost me a fortune but it will be worth it.

i dun like it...$12 shipped for 2 lil plastic inserts...

but its paint colormatched

but what if you have aftermarket paint?

i can do that with some ductape and a can of paint lol

if its color matched how come they don't carry super white code 040? not that i want them.

because celicas dont have color code 040.

Yeah, he only has the colors for Celicas and Spyders I believe. He might have other stock Toyota colors.

how can i find out? do they at least have silver. i'm writing this because my comp won't let me get in right now.

I'm going there tomorrow morning to get a test fit for my gen.

let us know how it goes and if they have anything that will match white preferably silver or a dark grey color. this stupid comp will not let me get into the link.

Do you think it can fit a 9th gen??

The keyhole covers look great, but once I got a look at them in person, I saw that they're something I can do myself for the same price. If you don't have any paint and can get it pre-painted in your color get it, otherwise, it's not worth it (literally a $1.25/ea part).

you seem somewhat disappointed in a way.

So, what exactly that thing made of?? How are you gonna make it??

I ended up making my own set and it looks pretty good considering I had to paint when it was super humid out. It's basically one of those plastic caps that hold your interior trim/carpet/headliner in place. I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow.

I see. Do you know where we can get it??

Any auto store has them. I wouldn't have been so annoyed if they didn't try weaving some "it's a proprietary process" BS story about it's production methods. Here's a pic of the one I made for my car. I need to get it repainted because I wasn't able to get a 100% color match with all the humidity out.

not bad at all

hah vamp is out to ruin their business

Not really. Just annoyed that they made it sound all proprietary and such when it's something that you can do yourself.

i know what you mean. i think its useless on the 9th gens cuz our door handles stick out like hell

You can still make one for 9th gen. I'm sure I can find a plug to fit the smaller keyhole you guys have.

its not a matter of the plug, i mean the door handles are loops, not flat like yours so i dont really see much of a point in it although i wouldnt mind capping my trunk, i always pop it from the inside.

how difficult is it to take those out if you need to?

it's really easy. Take 30 seconds to make one with a Dremel. Then you just paint it to match the car.
