Just recently, I got in a car accident with the tC..it rolled down a hill with myself and my cousins in it. Luckily, just the driver's whole side was hit instead of my cousins. I would die if anything happened to them..
Right now, I really miss my tC. It was totaled, but my parents do want to get it fix. It's going to cost thousands and it may not be worth it to a lot of people to fix, but it means the world to me. I love my car and I love the things I've done with it.. It's been great to me in autocrossing, taking me everywhere, and being my first project car.
Seeing my tC like this brings me to tears.

I love the Scion community and just want to let y'all know: Thanks for being so kind to me :] I just got another project car, but I won't be letting the tC go. -Tiffany

Here are pictures of my then ride and now:

true tC enthusiast :)

wow, that's going to be a lot of work, but props for sticking it out

deathscythe, eh? gundam fan? hahah

Thanks, Domo.
A lot of people think it's crazy that I love my tC this much, but I can't let it go.

Ro_Ja, yes! The G35's name is Epyon. Hahaha, I will be naming all my cars after gundams!

ahhhh!! are the tail lights and lip kit okay?!!

Thanks, Domo.

Glad everyone's OK! MMM Woot Gundam Wing FTW!!! Good Ole' Times!

wow its good no one was hurt bad, but sorry for the loss.. female+autox= win hope you'll get running again soon

Good no one was severely injured. Props for rebuilding it.

Oh and seems like the wheels are ok. They didn't shatter into a million pieces. Guess Rotas aren't too bad after all. :lalala:

WoW!

Glad your OK!...What Happend?

Looks like the ROTA's survived ehh???

Yea the "fixing" part looks quite Extensive!

I'm glad to be in one piece! No physical damage to myself happened and I'm VERY lucky to be alive. I should've been dead (as scary as that sounds). A lot of people died where I crashed at so it's amazing how I lived and walked out.

It was crazy hanging off of that hill, I kept my foot on brake and had the E-brake pulled up. They couldn't move me because the car might roll forward and down the hill more. My cousins were already out. They said if the car kept rolling, I would've been gone for sure since there was a cable line..

Haha, yup, the Rotas are in one piece! ALL 4 of them. One looks a little too bad so I want to go ahead and replace that! Now, no more jokes about them haha

Gotta keep doing what I love and being apart of the car scene means having my tC back with me.

I'm sure if the rotas were balanced, they would probably be bent.

Glad you're OK. That is a lot of work to do on the car. I would replace it because I wouldn't want a bent up frame from a crash like that. To each their own.

Wow! Thats epic!! The last part of the story sounds like an action movie lol. I'm glad everyone is okay! Keep in mind, cars can be raplaced/repaired/rebuilt..... People, on the other hand, not so much.

Version 2 of the tC is gonna be deathscythe custom hell? :D

glad to hear everyone is ok...but like said above the wheels and tails look fine lol

marcial was telling me about this. glad everyone is ok

Glad you all are okay that's whats most important! ...would have thought with the white you would have gone Sandrock...Gundam FTW!

im glad youre ok but i weep for the RS3, im in DFW and frequent the yards and know where a few tc's are if you need any help finding any parts

its okay tiff. when your in town you spend time with Ayla and i. it'd be fun =)

Thanks y'all!!!

Yes please! Let me drive AYLA!

Three weeks later after getting it totaled, it's rebuilt and it looks like nothing ever happened :] The shop here in Austin did an amazing job!

Wow. I don't even know how they managed to do that. Was anything mechanical damaged?

Nope, nothing was mechanically damaged :]

do you have foglights behind the kenstyle lip? o_O

i see no pictures :(

thats a quick turn around for a total body rebuild, looks good

I don't even want to know...but how much did that cost?

I don't even want to know...but how much did that cost?

i'd imagine it'd cost a lot to replace those release series bumper, grille, etc too. If I were you, I'd spend all that money on making the G35 a beast but if you say you love your tC that much, good for u :)

Damn 3 weeks and it looks completely new! Wish I had that much money! Got in a fender bender back in Feb and I bought parts to fix the front end. Just finish installing a head light, a fog light, and a new bumper. I still have the hood to fix...Kudos to you tho!

I'd love to know how much that cost.

Congratz!......Body work looks legit!

Are you missing the Blk Wheel inner plastic piece though?....

they did a good job.. looks like nothing happened

Wow that was alot of damage to the drivers side. Glad to see you got it fixed, mines in the shop right now getting the passenger side fixed, it looked not nearly as bad as yours but its gonna run $3,000 for mine to get fixed can't imagine what yours probably cost.

Wow good job, maybe its the lighting but in one of the pics the color is off. But damn 3 weeks thats a good turn around time

Thanks for the props! The cost of it was $5000 in repairs and parts. It was well worth seeing it alive again. The color is a little off. Pearl white is hard to match :(. Yes there were led fogs in the kenstyle lip and the black splash guards were taken out before the wreck because I was rubbing like crazy with my Ksport coils. Right now, I'm trying to mod the G as quick as possible because I can't stand riding stock lol.

I cant believe it was only 5,000. I recently wrecked my tc and it was 9000 to fix it and yours looks worse!

Congratulations on the fix. I'm quite surprised it turned out so well. $5000 is definitely cheap for all that work. It cost me $3000 just to fix my quarter panel.

if you don't mind me asking,

Which shop did the work? I have some body work that I need on my accord but I can't do it myself.

Good to see the car is back. Even better you're alright. :)

Instead of DEATHSCYTHE, you should rename it Vanilla Ice-ing.
Maybe better results? ;)

Wow...great job for 5 grand. I would have done the same, especially for that price.

Wow quick turn-around! IMO for it to be deatchscythe it needs to be black. But anyways liking the choice on the G. Hey is that a different wheel on the rear passenger side of the RS3? It looks like it only has 5 spokes and is sliver?

I vote new name TallGeese!

yeah i took it to the stealership since I didnt have to pay for it. Btw you have a sick tc. Glad to see someone not complaining on this site about wanting to trade their tc in hahaha

I took it to A tech Body Works in Austin, TX :]
Excellent work for $5,000 for me. Some of my family members go to him to fix their other cars so maybe it was a deal :p

Other than that, one of the Rotas got really scratched up and so that's why that silver wheel is on there. I'm getting that Rota wheel fixed so it'll be good as new again to be put on there. Can't you tell how much I love my tC? Haha

I cant believe it was only 5,000. I recently wrecked my tc and it was 9000 to fix it and yours looks worse!

I second that. The car looks great though...
