Take care in removing the vinyl as well, with it being on for 56k it's probably on pretty good, would hate to see the paint get damaged. Katana rims were probably not dealer installed, maybe you could ebay them though to get some cash back for the new ones. If you need stock ones to ride with in the mean time pleanty of people here on Scion life still have theirs and will part with them for $50 or less.

Lookin' good - congrats!
The drop would do it a world of good, I like the rims, and I hate to admit it but I think the stripe looks kind of cool against the wheels...

I'm suprised, after the way you described it I thought it would look worse, but actually it looks pretty good!

You gotta do something about those brake calipers though, that's the exact reason why I have never painted any of my calipers.

The wheels aren't that bad... although OG-Sans would be hot on there...

Don't bother with TRD springs, the drop is lame... at the very least, get some Tein H.Techs... but I'd get S.Techs or Progress.

The vinyl isn't that bad, but it's looking a bit worse for the wear... I'd pull it. Otherwise, the car looks great! Congrats!
