Default IM A PROUD OWNER OF A NEW 2005 POLAR WHITE SCION xA!!!!

Yeah...that rules and I'm excited as ____ to be owning it, I even ordered myself a set of Tein S-Techs and got them delivered to my door today and I'll be putting them on hopefully tomorrow! I also plan on installing a K&N CAI and a Blitz Nur-Spec exhaust, anybody else want to throw in any suggestions on additonal parts I should take into consideration? Also, another question, how do I take out the hubcaps? They're pretty chessy looking and I'd much rather ride the steelies for the meantime until I get myself some money for rims and tires. Later.

I don't know if you are joking or not, but before anyone flames you, I will tell you how to remove them. . . [drumroll]. . . you grab them with your hands, and you pull. If they don't come out, pull harder. If they are somehow stuck, you might need to pry them out with a screwdriver. . . but that almost never happens.

Yay! Go xA!

I used a screwdriver and pried the hubcaps off. You can put car wax on the steelies to make them shiney

Tint was the first thing I did! Couldn't have been happier with the results.

welcome to the family.....IMO you have already done some serios modding....all you need now is minor stuff like getting a stubby antenna to replace the remote control car looking one, short shifter (always a fun mod), and now tint the windows if you havent already....then you will love your xA even more...

hehe, I'm a lucky SOB cuz my car came from the dealership already tinted!! For an additonal fee of course, only like 464 bucks more. What are you're guys opinions on the front strut tower bower? I was thinking of getting that as well as a rear sway bar.

^^^^^^^^^

No kidding. You can get two or three xAs tinted for that much!

But I guess you get to finance the tinted windows??
