Default tC commercial

Has anyone seen the new tC commercial that has the tC with the 3 fins on the back? It has two like little shark fins on the outside and a bigger one in the middle. I was wondering what that would look like on the xB. I'm sure you could make some yourself, with a little fiberglass, bondo and patience. Any ideas?

Its on scion.com . If you know how to work the internet you should be able to use it. But because there are some exceptional cases out there in the world I'll provide a link that gets you close. http://scion.com/showroom/tc/gallery/
Should be able to get to it from there. :D

I guess that's not the answer I was really looking for. I was wondering what it would entail to make some like that. Like what materials besides the fiberglass and bondo to form some. I think it looks good on the tC and I think they would look good on the xB. Anyone want to give me some pointers on how to make something like that. I know it's possible.

Here is the actual scion commercial cars and the tC that you were asking about. We just had a huge scion show in Roswell New Mexico where scion unvailed these to us.

Here are pics of the xA, xB and tC from the commercials!!




















And the back end you were talking about!!

Hells yeah man, actually they're all pretty sweet.

If I had an xB, I'd get that kit
If I had a tC, I'd get that kit as well... although the fins, I could probably do without, still look good!

That's exactly what I was looking for. I have a buddy at work that is a master with fiberglass and is going to try and help me do something similar. I don't know how long it will take, but I'll try and post pics when I'm done. I don't think I'm going to go as big as the ones on the tC, but something similar, probably something more square. Thanks for the pics Boomster!

I was talking to my buddy at work and he said the best way to make them would to be with floral foam. Just sand it down to what you want and then apply strips of fiberglass mesh with the resin, kinda like paper machet. Then do a 50/50 mix of resin and bondo on top of that. Sand, paint, mount and you're done. I'm sure it's a lot harder than it sounds, but I'm going to give it a shot.

the xA is the best looking one but the xB needs to get rid of the wing or iron board or what ever the hell that thing is and the tC... nice wheels is all i can say...
