Ahh first of the '08s. It looks too much like black cherry though, but more brown'ish. I thought it would be a BRIGHT red... i mean really... SIZZLING crimson..

Thanks for all of the comments.

Not selling headlights or the tails, lol. Wife would kill me.

Don't know where I'm getting the rims from yet. Got a while before I get them for her.

Thanks thefatkid! Only one problem, the 08 tC's has the Scion Emblem on the back indented in the car, :( That really sucks!

lol double post, but what size sportmax you gonna get? whether she wants it or not your gonna lower it right? i think lowering the tc is the single biggest look change in the whole car. Gives her a nice "mean" stance...

triflin

Going with 17" rims so we can reuse the factory tires and by all means, so wont let me lower it. Lol

i hear you my wife wants a tc and i showed her the rims, lip kit, and all but lowering and a turbo are out of the question for her, so i guess itll slowly turn in to my car.:pirate: jacked

triflin
06-16-2007, 06:37 AM
Hahaha! Yeah, I told mine about the CAI, Header, and Exhaust, and all she did was look at me with that NO voice, lol!

But anyway, this is her car, not mine and I got to keep remembering that. I will help her out with any mods she wants, but will not tell her what to get, besides, I have my own to play with now. Check out the sig! WOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!

here is what you do. when you get the rims, get it lowered and blame it on the rims, say it changed the ride height if she asks, although your going with the same size rims, she wont know shhhhhh!!!!

Im not a complete moron, lol. Plus i do post in the forum :???:
I dont want it lowered because i dont wanna scrape it on anything. I cant see lowering it so that i cant drive normally.

Oh we'll talk you into it eventually! I have the trd springs... just gets rid of a little fender gap and ride height and comfort is still good as stock!

You will be fine with TRDs the factory would not sell them if you were going to scrape all over the place....and besides....I think you get better fuel economy.......:oops:....LOL

true. I'm debating lowering mine when I get one, because the parking lot at work has this gay rise in it at all entrances and my car already scrapes if i don't get it just right or if i have any kind of speed at all. not cool :sad:

tC's have always been indented.
my 06 is like that.

and its not easy to get it done and have it look "factory"
but i have faith in you and the pocketbook that u can get it done.:up:
