View Full Version : My motivation for wanting TYC tails
CuseHokie 04-26-2006, 05:11 PM Okay, so I commute everyday in Fairfax County (Virginia).
It's a wealthy county, so obviously you're going to see a lot of nice cars... a TON of scions.
It's gotten so bad here, I'm sick of seeing all the tCs.
Sooooooo... as a way to uniquetify my Scion even more (I just put some of those yellow fog overlays from headlight armor the other day), I've considered the TYC tails...
I saw them on a tC one day and I thought they looked tiiiiiiiiiiight.
I think having the big ugly spoiler actually spoils the tycs... so many people seem to get that combo and it looks ugly.
But if you don't have that, the tycs look sweet...
Alright, throw the tomatos at me.
maximus96 04-26-2006, 05:20 PM tyc with overlays looks good.
TongMan 04-26-2006, 06:27 PM If that is a wealthy county, shouldn't people be driving BWMs instead of Scions?
DTRUONG_112 04-26-2006, 07:27 PM tyc with overlays looks good.
with red overlays :bow:
BLUEMEANIE 04-26-2006, 07:54 PM ^ my thoughts exactly. lol.
I have the TYC's and imho they look decent against my blue paint (they'd look tight against white or silver) so I'm getting the red overlays
CuseHokie 04-26-2006, 08:05 PM If that is a wealthy county, shouldn't people be driving BWMs instead of Scions?
Oh certainly.
I saw a Z8 last week, an rS6 the other day... See a ferrari once a week, NSXs, etc etc... Cayanne Turbos.
But my point is, the rich parents buy their kids these cars, whereas in the average town, young Tommy is driving a 1994 honda accord. :)
So due to that, and a lot of young college grads working in all the defense contractors and tech companies, scions are popular.
anyways, continue talking about the tycs.
hawgs74 04-28-2006, 04:00 AM Scions are getting popular everywhere. -- And I live in ARKANSAS.
Yup, and it just got more popular, I now drive one as well!
I am also considering getting the TYC taillights. Haven't seen many tC with those. Mind snapping a few photos of them before you put them on? It would be nice to see how the quality of those are.
CuseHokie 04-28-2006, 03:45 PM You want pictures of the tail lights as they come shipped out of the box??
I believe you can do a quick ebay search and see that...

tC9o9 04-29-2006, 02:44 AM i like my TYC's..and with bats overlays they look even better.
i have gotten alot of compliments...especially from TYC owners
Latter-Day-Saint 04-29-2006, 03:16 AM Bat do overlays reduce light emission? Thanks.
tC9o9 04-29-2006, 03:30 AM well thats my car... and i have to say, YES...but only by a little.
i have LED's under there now..and they are pretty bright.. so i wouldnt worry
either way..these are still brighter than stocks

What color is the light that is emitted? Since the factory cover is...orange...and theirs a red overlay on that?Is this the only style that is available currently?
bBlover 04-29-2006, 04:02 AM i say get them!!
tC9o9 04-29-2006, 04:08 AM it comes with orange on the signals..
the overlays can be bought in either RED or SMOKE
if you put the smoke on.. it will light up orange
if you put the red on, it will light up red

Nick06tC 07-22-2006, 07:27 PM I think the TYCs complement the car well....if the color is right
