Thought id show you guys what I have done so far.
Ive been doing shows for awhile and always work from the outside in.
One problem came up while I was doing this. Bill came up and so did the possiblity of getting a house.. So money got tight and havent gotten the rims yet (which really friggin sucks!)
But heres whats going on right now...

And no its not that chamoleon color... Im not a fan of that... All the other colors you see other then the dark green is all pearl.
If anyone has any rim hook ups (got to be 12" wide in rear ;) ) let me know... looking for any other hook up too haha....
Im wrapping the interior with suede now to... and once the first couple shows pass im fiberglassing the whole car from behind the front seats back

There are tons of kits for the tc... just so many are already overplayed... Just like the rado kit I got... but I did my twist on it with the color...

Let just say I sent this shop about 15 cars in the last 6 months... so hes taking very good care of me. And the first show it will be in will be a dealer show in the same city. So I will be passing out cards and such...

Nah I didnt like the ait kit... the one that doesnt sit flush on the lines... looks like they added boxes to the car....
The fitment on this kit was crap.... I got very lucky to have a shop take care of me and know what they are doing...

Exacly, thats what I'm going to do. I'll probibly take a little from a couple kits and mesh them together in my own vision.

Only problem with that is... you wont be able to buy pieces of those widebody kits... you have to buy the whole kit they dont sell them in pieces.

I don't see why they wouldn't. You'd think any kind of income they'd welcome.

kind a old thread but i just read it for the 1st time. Love that wide body kit, looks sick, a dealership near my house in KCMO has that same kit on there scion tc, its painted white with a lambo door kit and huge chrome wheels and a custom fiberglass sub box in the trunk painted to match the outside of the car. Keep the good work!!

That sounds pretty awesome, although I don't think Crome rims look good on a Super White tC, possibly the new RS.
