i know i cant be the only dork with a wishlist of things. heres all i want...
spoiler (fab or stock, still debating)
goldline springs
bat's tailight overlays or maybe the paintable altezzas
weathertech side deflectors
3 piece billet grill
fender flares
dvd/navi

pretty much in order. all i got so far are rims and foglights. heh. i need to find some more freelance work!

hey there's nothing wrong with having a checklist... i mean at least you have your xB already, the dealer is still hunting one down for me and i already have a long checklist haha

Dork #2 signing in. I have a list of 45 mods, some large invertent items, some small. Twenty completed so far and had the car one year. A list is great, lets you pick out what you wnat to do next real easy. Have fun with the list and accomplishing the items on the list.

Yeah. I knew what I wanted to do to the car before I bought it... scionlife and the bB Bible just gave me some direction. :P

My checklist is ordered in what things will give me the most enjoyment for the cost.

i'm almost done with my wish list even though its not much but it all hads up though

ive got one too.....but that just so i dont forget about some of my mods.

ive got one also, i just dream real big!

-nt

I have a text file with a checklist of what I'm doing next to my car... It's not dorky... It's called a plan. :D

I've got a massive checklist, just waiting for the wife to start a new job so I can justify the spend:

- New Grill
- Clear headlights, paint bezel
- Tein Htechs
- Finally mount wheels
- Engine compartment cathodes
- Smoke rear lights (currently overlayed)
- Paint silver interior trim

And on, and on. I shooting to have everything done before Elmhurst Toyota's big July show.

there's a july show?

My list is pretty similar to others.

Wheels (still trying to find a style that suits me)
Springs (Tanabe or Goldline I think)
Rear Spoiler (Fab or Stock, I too am debating)
Chrome or Polished Billet Grill (for only between the headlights)
Still debating how much I wish to sink into Stereo and when.
Still debating how much I wish to sink into the interior.

I'd like to dabble some chrome under the hood, but that's only if I show the box...
Right now I'm not sure I can maintain a daily driver and afford dumping as much
into the box as it deserves. Honestly, I'm not even sure of how to *show*! LOL

My list started with rims...Its now got about 40 things on it and woohoo, most of them are checked off...

mines on excel .. shoped around for best pricing and seeing if i was gonna be over budget for that month

started mine with a system and just got rims

now suspension then prob performance parts later

I have a list, but I have really deviated from it. I've done things totally out of the order I originally planned to do them in. I've resolved that I should only keep a mental list now, that way I can constantly revise it. :)

:rofl: :rofl: that s what you think i got a check list too.........

I got mines to, but mines has generaly months/timeperiod experations. Like I have to get my 2 new subwoofers by the end of next month, etc.

hehehe that is great.

I only have one thing on my check list

-Scion xB

no worries we all dorks, cause we all started with a wish list. just that most of my stuff is on back order or just takes for ever to come from japan. so i don't have an order. just wait by the phone and wait for the "hey your.... is in." and knock it off the checklist.

and in the video/audio department my list keeps changing as vendors bring out newer products.

My list works in stages.

Exterior will have to suffice for a while with springs and rims from the dealer.

Underhood; probably pull off some of the brackets and covers to get powdercoated/painted plus add some neon/LEDs under there.

Interior; install XM, XBox and 1 screen. Probably have a few of the interior pieces painted as well. Eventually arrive at 4 screens, new head unit, underseat sub,amps and lighting.

performance will be limited to just I/H/E for the cool appearance and sound.

Big ticket item that I can acquire a little long the way is rear disc conversion.

I just hope a few things I have in the air come together in the next few weeks so I can get the box ordered. ;)

G/L to everyone on their lists.

I've checked off 2 things, the Injen intake and DC Sports strut bar, so I'm not doing too bad so far. All that's left are Tein coilovers, Injen axle-back, and maybe a turbo, once all the problems are sorted out.

there's a july show?

Yeah, check out the Great Lakes forum. It's their traditional all Toyota show, in July rather than September this year.

Another old-fart / dork with a wishlist!

Spoiler
Springs(TRD, TEIN, GOLDLINE?)
Header (DC- Stainless)
Window vents
Better interior Lighting!
etc,etc,etc...

if having a checklist makes u a dork, then ALL xB owners are dorks. because we all want to make some mod or another to our boxes. and, after attending my first meet this past weekend, my list has grown

My "checklist:"

2005 BCP xB - will be ready next month (purchasing used from a dealer friend for an absolutely smokin price!)
15" Black Racing Pro N1 wheels (gunmetal w/polished lip) - already purchased
205/55/15 Falken Ziex 512 tires - ordering next month
Tein S-tech springs - ordering next month
OTG spacer shims - ordering next month
Front bB emblem - ordering next month
Boomerang armrest - ordering next month
Alarm - already purchased, awaiting install next month
Tint front windows - next month
OEM foglights & spoiler - ordering within 2 months
I've also got a bunch of audio gear from an old set-up. Not sure if I'll use it or not.

checklists are awesome...they help you manage your money for priority mods.

My upcoming mods :pray: :

150whp - most important
2 12" MTX 9500
Apexi Catback Exhaust
Carbon Fiber Hood and Fenders
Garson Geraid Kit
Cusco Vacanza Coilovers
new wheels - possibly some 18" a/x

not odd at all. when i bought the xb, i made an excel spreadsheet with my 'staged' mods. i'm such a nerd!

I think everyone has their own "checklist". Makes it easier to plan things and check what you can afford and when you can afford it. I just need to decide whether Im doing my interior or exterior first.

yeah i don't think anyone doesn't have a checklist. some are just more organized than others. of course i ain't one of those organized ones. plus if i had it written down and the wifey seen how much more things going in oh boy, big trouble. lol. just wish things from japan would come in a little bit faster. so now i'm spending all my exterior money on interior mods.

my list is long... but the important ones are done... i got the EVO 2 exhauste, security alarm, fog lights, and the Ro_Ja wheels are on this saturday... my month and a half old XB is looking nice...

i feel so much closer to my scion bretheren. :cry:

your only as dorky as you feel my checklist is in my pocket
protector and i discuss mods with fellow chess club peeps!!

i think we like to be called scion geeks!

I have had to subdivide my list. 1. Personally engineered items (homemade) 2. Manufactured-expensive 3. Manufactured-not expensive. Look forward to working on accomplishing any of them.

Dork #543 signing in....................On my check list I even run a blue high-lighter through all the things I've done or ordered. The list is so long, I don't want to keep reading the same things over and over.................................!!!!!

yup.. i guess a list is normal. i don't even have my xB yet and i already have a list of items to get. it's a common thing.. it helps keep you in perspective of things.

I've got 2 spreadsheets going one that I know I can afford to get in the short term eg. muffler, wheels. and one long term dreaming eg blitz s/c, fab body kit...
